India Rubber Shoes.

The Scientific American gives the following
information relative to wearing India Rubber
Shoes which is worthy attention.
awe have noticed that many persons wear
India rubber over shoes in cold weather, to
keep their feet warm. This is an injurious
and evil practice. India rubber shoes are very
comfortable and valuable for covering the feet
during wet sloppy weather, but they should
never be worn on any other occasion-ther
sold use should be to keep out water.-They
should. therefore, be put off whenever the
wearer enters house, and be worn as little as
possible, they are air--tight. and rest rain
tie uerspiration of the feet. The air canno'
be excluded from them, or from any Other
norton Of the body for any length of time
without effeC,ing the health. 1t is our opinion
that no habit tends more to good health thai
clean feet and clean dry stockings so as to al
low the psrspiratiOn of the neither extreml
Ndes."
