About a week ago we received
some exceedingly handsome Shoes
and Slippers from the East, not
from S. Francisco, but direct from
tho East. This enables us to sell
them cheaper than any other store
on Maui. Ask for a pair of Men's
soft, elegant Romeos. They will
fit you like a glove. And our snug,
comfortable Men's Embroidered
Slippers are nice to slip on when
you come homo in the evening.
Let us show you our Ladies',

Also our Barefoot Sandals, Rub
