Fifth Avenue Boot and Shoe Store – Balch and Inslee are convenient to everybody just now. On the great avenue to the Post office, almost everybody passes their door. Since their removal they have added an immense lot of New Goods, so now there is nothing a person can suggest in their line, but the article will be forthcoming. Special and particular pains have been taken to please the ladies, and to this end, a fine class of shoes have been purchased, and all the sizes manufactured on the different (lasts?), may now be had at Balch and Inslee’s.

Their stock, too, is selected with the view of pleasing the farmer, who can here fine a heavy boot or a light boot, a heavy shoe or a light shoe, or anything in fact that can be found in an extensive Boot and Shoe store. Remember that Balch & Inslee may now be found on Fifth Avenue in the store formerly occupied by L. W. Buck. Call and look at their goods.
