Now, folks is the time to [safely?] invest your
money in purchase [of] a supply of boots,
gaiters, shoes and so forth.  Our stock is new and
embraces all styles in leather and cloth.  Do not
fail to visit and examine [at lower and lower?] prices. 
Postscript.  We offer [great?]
inducements; not to be undersold by
any dealer is our motto.
