One of these concerns not only the appearance of the shoe but the comfort of the Wearcr. How many times do you see men’s big toes rising in high, relief impressions above the surface of the upper ‘2 Naturally you feel that the waarer of such a. shoe must sutfer from the pressure on his big toe, and he docs ; if not immediately. at some time in the future. The whole difli Julty can be obviated by providing a depression in the sole of the shoe into which the too will fit. This depression is obtained by fastening a piece on the last and beating the sole around it until it is moulded into it. ”When the toe is thus cnred- for there will he no ingrowin ' toonnils and no unsightly protrusions o the upper.

The case is a notable one for the luck and determination of Mrs. Horn lower. who felled one of the burglars twice with a cane chair which was in her room, and for the fact that though: perfect volley of shot: was fired at the doctor at short range he was only slightly injured while he succeeded in putting a. bullet through the neck of one of the intruders.

Some time ago a gentleman and his wife walked into our factory. and in just one hour and thirty-thrcepninutes the lady left the house wearing a pair of fine shoes which were made for her from the stock while she was in the factory. l‘hese shoes were made on a single set of machinery and passed through the hands of the different opera- tiyes at their machines.
