"The Christmas charm of 'Comfy' slippers

COMFY slippers make welcome Christmas gifts for every member of the family. The soft COMFY soles make everyone want to wear COMFY's more than ordinary slippers.

The variety of colors and the beautiful finish satisfy the most critical woman. There are colors and color combinations to match her semi-negligee.

COMFYS are a capital gift to make a man forget the early morning chill of cold floors, and lend restfulness to the after-dinner lounge. Just the thing to wear on the way to the bath or while shaving. Convenient, too, for traveling.

Children's slippers are carved with novel designs that make them as fascinating as new toys.

COMFYS are packed in attractive boxes which greatly add to their desirability as Christmas presents.

Send for our new catalog No. 32, illustrating our complete line of COMFYS. Buy COMFY slippers at your dealer's. If he does not sell COMFYS, do not buy ordinary felt slippers, but send your order to s. Enclose price, state size and color desired and give your dealer's name.
