The DARK AGES. Among The msuy
appliances OF torture used By cur fore
fathers in the days ages TO extort c0nfes-
siOns or FOR the punishment OF criminals,
was the iTOu bOot-sn appliance thai vs.
put on the foot, and by . deyiiish ID nu
ity of mechanism, made to contract auG
crush the feet OF tbs wearer. Shoems-
kers Of tbs present day, some Of them
seem to pattern after these torture boots,
and make concerns cut OF leather that
are almost as bad IS those that our an
cestors devised out Of iron. The agony
and torture OF q tight boot Of the present
day is increased ten thousand fold by the
COINS and bUnions which they themselves
e~Dgender. This part Of the sflictiOn,
thanks to surgical scierc-, has bsen
ameliOrated. The art Of the %chir0podist
has been brought TO that state Of perfec-
ton that every corn, buBiOR, or other
excresence can be removed painlessIy
and instantaneOusly. DR.. LanC, at the
Peabody Hotel, is prepared to guarantee
to do tins in every case, no matter how
long standing or difficult.
