When a man wants to purchase a
suit of clothes and one that has work
manship and quality combined, he
naturally looks for the manufacturer's
name because if a man has made! any
reputation as a manufacturer he is
going to have his name on the clothes.
The same thing holds good in hats and
shoes and more especially in shoes.
Thp name Hamilton Brown on a pair of shoes
means that it has MERIT, that the shoe is absolute
leather, and that the workmanship is of the very
best, the style the latest, the material the very best,
and furthermore we stand behind every pair of them
that we sell with the Hamilton Brown Shoe Co. be
hind us with a paid up Capital of $3,500,000,00,
working 5,500 shoe makers with a daily out put. of
60,000 pairs, this is doing a big shoe business but
when you come to think that they are selling them
as cheap as lots of shoes that are not all leather, and
absolutely standing behind every pair its no wonder
that they are doing the largest shoe business in the
world, we want to state again that if you buy a pair
of Hamilton Brown Shoe Co's-Shoes from us that
you will ever after join the millions of people who
are wearing them and that we will make good for
any pair that is not all right. Call and let us show
