The lIydromagen is valuable discovery
FOR protecting the feet from damp or cold and
therefore preventative Of many Lung dis
eases, without any doctoring whatever. The
llydromagcn is in the form of sole, and
worn inside the boot or shoe. Its mcdicated
character is powerful antidote to disease.
For gentlemen it will be found agreeable,
warm and healthy, to wear in the coolest or
ralniest weather, AS the foot cannot wet if the
llydronagen is inserted. Ladies may wear
the lightcst snled boots or shoes in the most
Indictment weather with impunity while Con-
sumption, so prevalent among the young of
our country, may be thwarted by their gen
eral adoption They entirely Wpcrsedc Orer-
shoes, rs the latter cause the feet TO perspire
in "A very unhealthy manner; and, besides ARE
not dangerous wear TO pedestrians in icy wea-
thcr, like india rubbers. While the latter
cause the feet to appear extremely large, the
llydr0magen, being a 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, jas they may engage in ex-
ercises with comfort and healthy effects. Their
expense is so slight as To scarce need mention;
besides, those who patronizc them will find

As the Hydromagcn is becoming more
known, its sale is increasing to an almost in
