An Unkind Reply:-Therc is a slight
Misunderstanding between McGinnis
The Footgear Now Worn by Well
Dressed Men.

From the Providence Journal
This is called q season of "NObby
Shoes" No man wears boots nowadays
except when he goes fishing. Patent.
leather shoes with silk tops are the fines
in the market, and costs from $l2 to SIS
A great many of the cloth-top shoes are
in demand, and the custom shoemaken
have abundance Of work. More than
ever is there demand for neatly fitting
shoes, not only by the fu(l-pursed buyers.
but every person who gives any thought
to personal appearance will have neat
and trim shoes, and such q shoe may be
obtained for considerable less than the
prices given, else some would go barefoot
1t is said that unmarried men wear shoes
= size to small on all important occasions
and shoe one or two sizes too large
later in life.
Shoe,naking has become as delicate
and difficult as matchmaking. In the
large cities esshoemakers are gathered from
other countries-from Paris, London
and Berlin. Better shoes are made in
this country than anywhere else under
the sun. In some places the shoemakers
are under control of u union. The union
furnishes material and directs the styles.
The custom makers do not practice the
uniformity system. Each man makes q
complete pair of shoes. They work long
days, sixteen hours or more, and make
fair wages.
