TIME Hvdromagenis valuable discovery
Il for protecting the feet from dampor cold,
and therefore a preventative of many Lung
diseases, without any doctoring Whatever
The Ii ydromagen is in the form of a sole, and
worn inside the boot or Shoe It's medicatel
character is a powerful antidote to disease.
For gentlemen it will be found agreeable,
warm, and healthy, to wear in the coolest
or rainiest weather, as the foot cannot become
wet if the Hydromagen is inserted. Ladies
rfay wear the lightest soled boots or shoes in
the most inclement weather with impunity;
while Consumption, so prevalent among the
young of our country, may be thwarted by
their general adoption. They entirely super
ttae over-shoes, Us the latter cause the feet to
perspire in very unhealthy manner; and. be-
sides, are not dangerous wear to pedestrians in
icy weather, like India-rubbers. While the
latter causes the feet to appear extremely large,
the Hydromagen, being mere thin slice of
cork prepared, peculiarly placed inside, does
not increase the size of the boot, or cause the
foot to appear untidy. To children they are
extremely valuable, as they may engage in ex-
ercise with comfort and healthy effects. Their
expense is so slight as TO scarce need mention;
besides, those who patronage them will find
their yearly doctors bills much diminished thereby.
Asthe Hydromagen is becoming more known,
its sale is increasing to an almost incredible ex-
tent Lastyea in London, Manchester, Bir-
mingham, Liverpool, Glasgow, Leeds, Dublin,
Paris, Antwerp, Hamburgh, and Berlin, our
sales reached 1875, 450 pairs of Cork Soles.-
This year the number will far surpass that
