PATTERSO .WHO SELLS GOOD f - SHOES "I Spend a $1 oh Rat-Simp ami Saved the Price of a Hoer." James McGuire, famous Hog Raiser of New Jersey says, "I advise every farmer troubled with "rats to use RAT-SNAP. Tried everything to get rid of rats. Spent $1 on -RAT-SNAP.

The press notices to the effect that "$25.00 and up" shoes are in sight is largely a myth. There always have been $25.00 shoes and about one per son in ten thousand would pay this price. There always have been $10.00 to $15.00 shoes, and numbers of peo ple would buy .these shoes possibly because they '"matched a dress" or for some other equally important reason. There always have been shoes for dress-up and street wear, retailing from $5.00 .to $15.00 for the past ten years. Our shoes retailing at $5.00 to $10.00 before the war, now sell at $7.00 to $14.00, showing an advance in price of $2.00 to $5.00 per pair. We, as leaders in our line, have al ways carried some of the newest and best shoes for those who want- the latest thing in style and; of course, merchandise of this kind eosts more than plain staple goods. These shoes interest men and women who like to w-ear "exclusive" stvles and can afford it. There always have been work shoes $3.00 to $5.00 for hard wear. There always have been boys' and girls' shoes, at similar prices. The shoes of this kind which we sold be fore the war at 3.00 to $5.00 were sold during the war at from $4.00 to $7.00 and are being sold now at $4.50 to $8.00. The advance in the price of our shoes in four years averages about $2.00 to $3.00 per pair. Now, these are the facts about our shoes, and it looks different from the fiction which is being so largely handed around the country about '$25.00 shoes." The above quoted prices show the advances which 'rave been necessary, in our shoes, due to increasing cost (with which everybody is familarl of hides, leather, materials and labor, plus the intelligent and efficient ser vices we render our customers. Don't be talked into paying any fancy or ridiculous prices "for your footwear. Advances there are and ad vances there will be legitimate and necessary, "but nothing like the extra vagant statements frequently made about "$25.00 shoes" need give you a moment's concern. And now a word of advice. Don't speculate in shoes. Don't buy any more than you need. Meaning, don't hoard shoes, as some people are doing, If you buy a pftir of shoes suited to your needs and take good care of them and have them repaired when they need repairing keep them well half-soled and well-heeled you can save a lot of money on your footwear. This is intended to give you a plain statement about, shoes, in contradic tion to the wild and extravagant rum ors so persistently published through out the country BIG BUSINESS BRINGERS SILENT SALESMAN COLUMN READ THE RARE BARGAINS FOR SALE I pijrs, 10 weeks old..

Drinking and Bathing Has Become Costlier High Cost of Living lias Hit Tin Town's Water Supply; Slightly In- : creased Rates Now in Afieci; .New Discount Poliey. The high cost of most everything has at last hit the water consumers nt Hendersonville. for the city commis sioners at their last meeting ad'.ptd a new water rate schedule. The or dinance is effective at once, which means that the increases will apply to the September nil is. The users of the minimum, amount of water will escape with but slight ly larger bills. The old charge eior the minimum amount of 1,500 gallons was fifty cents, with no discount. T'.ie new ordinance provides a minimum charge of $1 for 2,000 gallons of wa ter with a discount of twenty percent if the bill is paid by the tenth of the month. Under the old fating 2,000 gallons would have cost the consumer seventy cents. Under the-new rating and taking advantage of the liberal discount, this amount of water will cost but eighty cents. Under the new schedule the user of 10,500 gallons of water will be charg ed $5. SO, with a discount of twenty percent if paid by the tenth, or a net amount of $4.64. The constantly mounting costs of materials alid labor have forced the commissioners to increase the rates. There is, and has been all during this record breaking season, an abun dance of splendid water available. The commissioners believe the new rates have been so graded as to work no, hardship upon any one class of water consumers, " and attention is drawn to the fact that the user of the minimum amount will see no practi cal difference in his monthly . bill provided he takes advantage of the discount. Plumbing firms of the city insist that water consumers have a remedy at hand to reduce their bills. "Stop th leaks," they say, "and cut your bills." The auto tire repairing machine of M. C. Dotson & Co. will save you 500 per cent on tire costs. Try it. 0 : r . w OotvV voi neea Uvi6eums 31 rs.
