An advertisement appearing in the Elizabethville Echo, Elizabethville, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, 24 January 1895:
I don’t pretend To handle as many styles as the big city stores, but this
I DO PRETEND That I sell better shoes for the money than they do.
To-day I compared my $1.35 Ladies Patent Leather Tip Button Shoe with one that a lady paid $1.85 for, within 10 miles of her and I could see no difference in the shoes.
