WEARING OUT SHOES.
Long Walks in the Wet Will Destroy
the Best Of Footwear.

Long Walks in the Wet W Ill Destroy
the Best Of Footwear.
\ writer, in answer to the question.
"Are more shoes worn out in wet than
in dry weather." says there are more
actually worn out, particularly at the
bottoms, when the walking is fine;
but the destruction of shoes is at least
% per cent, greater during wet spells.
In the former case the shoes have not
the protection OF the rubber, and they
grind out rapidly; but then, again, in
stormy seasons hundreds of pairs of
shoes are caught in drenching rains
without OvershOes. and they are more
injured then than they would be in
a month OF walking in dry weather
A long walk in thoroughly soaked
shoe causes it irreparable damage.
The straining motions of the foot in
this soft mass wreak damage that
could never be possible in the same
shoe when dry. Even the soles of
shoes worn much in the wet, especial
ly those of the poorer grades, have
their term of usefulness considerably
curtailed.
