Over Country.
It may surprise you to learn that
many men and women of that claaa
who only spend at small part of their
time In Washington and complete their
wardrobe! In other cities bay all, or a
jrreater part, of their footwear at Ber
berlch'a, .
Especially Is this true at the begin
ning of the season, for Berberlch's have
a reputation that Is nation-wide as foot
wear fashion headquarters. Such well
known shoe firms as the makers of
Patrician, La France, the Ameri
can Girl, and other well-known women's
shoes, and Burrojaps, Selz Royal Blue,
and Craddock shoes for men, make It
a point to rlial one another In the at-

either With' the direct Intention of .btur-
lns or In order ,to Inspect the stock jac
Washington' most representative aha
tore These manufacturers therefore
realise the absolute necessity of "put
ting their beat foot forward! at Ber
berlch's Washington stores.
A famous narehant from th PaeJAo
coast visited Washington. Whenhis
friend accompanied him to the train, b
asked the merchant what feature oi
this city stood out the strongest. Ths
merchant replied. "The Washington
Monament and Berberlch's Sho Stores.
This characteristic reply la the
strongest klndtbf evidence of the posi
tion the House of Berberich occupies
with the Washington public Bar waa
a. man, a wealthy merchant, who ap
preciated during his shout stay, the
superior methods of the Berberlchs. His
business training enabled him to see
at once that of all the shoe stores la
this city Berberlch's was the leader.
The 'Berberich methods of doing busi
ness are a radical departure In their
line of business. There is one fact that
(stands out pre-eminent the public
must De sausnea. Ana on uisi rocjt
of honesty similar In Its strength to
the Rock of Gibraltar, this constantly
enlarging shoe business has been built.
Promise is good, but performance la
better. No truer statement was ever
made. And Berberlch's perform after
the promise.
"Washington Monument and the Ber-
berlsh Shoe Stores." An unusual tribute
to pay to aDusiness nouse.
Wearer Reimbursed When
ever Any Pair Fails to
Make Good.
On of the most remarkable features
bout the Burrojaps shoe Is that the
uppers of all patent leather models are
guaranteed not to break through before
the soles wear through. This is the
first and only shoe bearing such a guar
antee. In fact, so uncertain 1s the
quality of most patent leather shoes'
and tan calf shoes that the National
Boot and Shoe Manufacturers' Assocla-
ratty In tM,raattr th ffct that
waa absent? urpoeauH,to asm as
tb warmr quaBOa of any. patent
enstnol finish leather, or taa calf akl-J.
and that sack sboea aboold be n
strictly at th sarehaners owi riskv
Compare this stand with -that of th
manofaotarers of taa Burrojaps Bho
and yoa win find that this tetter firm
guarantees to glT th wearer a new
pair of Burrojaps free in any oa
when the uppers break through before
the first sole wear through.
Needless to say, th Burrojap mam
facturera likewise guarantee every other
shoe they sell regardless of what kind
gf leather th upper may be made with
ins same guarantee- oi m new pair ire
If the upper break through before the
o.
in manufacturers of th Burrojap
shoe are a particular concerning the
wearing qualities of the soles of their
shoe a they are with their upper.
Every Burrojap sol is made of Tlte
Oke leather, the best sole leather known
to the shoe world, and taaned espe
cially for Burrojaps Shoe la th manu
facturers' own tannery.
You will realise why the Burrojaps
manufacturers take such "ire or. the
sole of the Burrojap Shoes when you
recall JDr. Wiley's statement to the ef
fect that nowhere Is greater adultera
tion practiced than In the tanning of
leather.
