YOUR INTERESTS.
That the interests of our customers have had more attention than that given in any other store
in Newark is easy to prove. When new styles are coming out. who but Whiting shows them first?
And the same is true in every detail throughout our entire stock. Right here we make a broad as
sertion. but one that can be proven:- If we can't prove that our Walkover shoe is the best $3.50 j§
shoe sold in Newark, a pair is yours absolutely free. That they are of a better quality, superior
make and far better style, no one can dispute. You have tried the unsatisfactory kind, now buy a
pair of Walkovers, and try the satisfactory kind.
