OLD TINE FINE SHOES.
ARTISTIC foorceAR or THE MAKE
OF THE YEAR 1853.

Csoparisesn Between Thtngs as They
Were 10 Times rsss~d and rhings -
They arc Nov Ars ones Very Interest
i.e and Sometimes Instructive.
Not long ago I calns across lot Of
shoes and fancy footgcar. which n ,ne
time were exhibited in tho New York
Crystal palace during the early sos To
the shoemaker OF today these relics are
both amusing and instructive. Theclumsy
shapes and odd ornamentation were sub
jects for mirth, while tho workmanship
afforded instruction. With tho quality
OF material or workmanship no fault
could be found, both being fully up to
that Of today. The leather was evident
ly tanned BY tho good old bark process.
and what might DO lacking in dcxibility
was fully compensated for in longevity.
Tho stitching, as was all other parts Of
the workmanship, was hand work, for
in those days tho Mckay sewer. Buxzel
edge trimmer, Goodyear machine. or
Digelow heelers played no part in the
making Of footgear.
In Fig. Is seen white satin garter,
such - was the pride Of the gushing
bellies Of that period. II Is made from
white satin Of fine quality, and laces at
the side, after the fashion % popular at
that time. About the top Is stitched,
with many fancy stitches, . strip OF silk
fringe an inch and quarter deep. The
fore part Of the sole has square edges.
while the heel Is what ID now known as
''spring heel" but In those days such
shoes were known % "straights" or
''i1at bottoms" Such shoe as this was
worn by the "fine ladies" while attoni-
ing to their light household duties.
For afternoon wear, when "milady"
was ready to receive her friends, she
wore such as seen in Fig. 2. This Is
made Of white or pink satin and beauti.
fully embroidered with silk in many
striking and unique designs. OF these
designs, those Of vines, with bright ilow-
ers and golden-hued humming birds,
seemed to find most favor with those Of
extreme tastes. Fluffy silk fringe OF gay
color, held in place by silver or gold
thread, ornamentcd the tops. The soles
Of these shoes wcro Of the lightcst sole
leather, and without heels. The cm-
broidery and all tho stitching was very
fine and all hand work.
Another fancy shoe for afternoon, con-
cert or theatre wear Is seen in Fig. 8.
This shoe Is of blue velvet and Of quality
that would make glad tho heart Of any
Of tho birds of fashion Of the present
day. The embroidery is In unique de-
sign in bright silk, while threads Of gold
and silver shooting here and there add
their bizarre effect. A deep fringe Of
purple silk is about tho top. Tho shoe is
laced at the side, and the white silkcn
cord that served Ms shocstring lent
pleasing novelty to the altogether strik-
ing appearance Of the shoe. A thin sole
supplemented by thinner strips Of cork
protected "miladys" dainty feet from
the sidewalk, as did also high heels.
These heels are Of themselves somewhat
OF novelty.

"One thing you must promise, for my

And still no answer came. How odd!
He was bending over in the saddle as
though turning from her, perhaps to hide
his face from her and from them all. He
had shifted the reins into his right hand,
and was apparently fumbling at the
breast Of his riding coat with the left.
Was 1t the handkerchief he needed?
Were there starting tears in those blue
eyes that he dared not let her see? She
could not lose that luxury! Out went
the little hand and touched his arm. Her
tone was sweet, thrilling, appealing, yet
commanding; she would see his face.
"Mr. Perry-Ned! Look at me-"
"Eh! oh! What beg your pardon,
Mrs. Belknap, but was trying to make
out who that was IL the timber yonder.

vision he was aghast at the look in her
face.

A Confederate officer was standing sur

The fighting lasted pretty much all day,

The regiment had suffered severely.
Colonel Smart was killed, so was the Ma

was dead or wounded More than half the
regiment had fallen.

AS the senior Captain left the command,
of course, fell upon Luke by regular promo

light he left his company with him, and
took command of the regiment.

morrow, and Luke and his decimated regi-

the prisoners Luke asked himself, as he
entered the works at the head of his regi-
ment.
Long he searched among the living, then
the dead, ard finally went among the
wounded Confederates.
"For whom are you searching" Gen
eral Grant asked, coming upon the young
officer who had saved his life at Belmont, as
he was making some inquiries of wound
ed prisoner.

General Grant was not a man TO give
much outward expression to emotion, but
he had a warm, sympathetic heart. That
very morning he had met an old class-mate
and army friend, taken from him his sword
and made him prisoner, and he knew what
it was TO be Inundated

ability to retain his composure longer.
Luke continued his search, and at last
met wounded Confederate who belonged
to Albert Neff's company, and he said that
he had escaped from the fort on the night
before with Generals Pillow and Floyd.
He didn't want to GO said the soldier.
