EEC RE A TION. 



he National Guard and many Officers of the 



United States Regular Army 



have been buying, for use in Cuba, our 



Siberian Moose Shoes 



because they are so light, so durable, and 

 so thoroughly water=proof. 



For the past year we have been sending a lot of 

 these shoes, and some cavalry boots, to Gen. Gomez's 

 officers, through a large tobacco-importing house 

 here in New York. 



We want to emphasize the fact that these Moose 

 shoes are the best shoes that can be produced, and 

 we have spent hundreds upon hundreds of dollars 

 in telling sportsmen about it. 



These shoes are superior because they are <0 

 special in every way : special water-proof leather, <P 

 special anhydrous soles, special lasts of new design, "€p 

 special stitching, special lining, in fact, every point <£ 

 of shoe worth has been studied to give each special <£ 

 value. <p 



The result is a shoe as strong as steel, yet pliable "ip 

 and soft as kid, graceful to the eye and easy on the 

 foot, and will outwear any two ordinary shoes. 



The leather is the famous Siberian Moose. Costs 

 more than any other, and guaranteed water- 

 proof. 



The color is a dark Russian tan, so much in vogue. 

 The soles are of the best anhydrous oak stock, 

 made water-proof by patented process. 



The stitching will not rip. The bottoms are 

 hand-sewed with Barbour's extra heavy 

 water-proof flax. The uppers are stitched 

 and then double-stitched with pure silk. 



Bellows tongues of the best Moose stock are 

 used, making the shoes water-proof to the top. 



The linings are of finest russet calf-skin, ad- 

 ding warmth and strength. 



English Backstays, extra heavy eyelets, 

 " Bull Dog" toes, Pratt Fasteners, 



etc., etc. Every approved shoe point ^ 

 will be found in them. Price to all "* 

 alike, $7.50 net. 



We also make a short boot, 12 



inches high, at $8.50 ; a knee 



boot, " Hunter's Style," lacing 



up the front, at $10.00, and 



a "Cavalrv Stvle" boot at 



$12.00, all with the same 



good points as the shoes.
