putc, says the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
that Miss Ella Ewing, of Fairmount.
Ciark County. Mo, IS tho possessor oy
bigger feet than any other woman in
tho country. Tho young lady, vino is
now but eighteen years Of age, ordered
last week pair of shoes from the Ten
hant-Stribling Shoe Company, and they
arc now very nearly finished Tho shoes
arc the largest over turned out in ST.
Louis. The last over which they wcrc
constructed measures 15,i inches in
length and ~ inches in width at tho
ball of tho foot. There is enough
leather i'll ono of the heels to build five
pairs OF ordinary ladies' shoes, and tho
leather III each shoe would he sufficient.
II 1T could be utilized, to mako thirty
pairs of ordinary shoes. A. w. Foote,
who mado the last, states that within
the period of his eighteen years oxpe-
rlencc in the shoe business he has mover
seen any thing to quite equal Miss Ew-
ing S foot. 1t took him n day and half
10 look up tho timber, and when he
hnally secured largo enough maple
block to Kew tho last from he was
obliged to fill out the instep with
leather.
Miss Ewing. the young lady who will
wear the shoes when they arc entirely
constructed is the daughter of a farmer
at tairmount, and it is understood spent
the early part of hcr life in the woods
Ill the vicinity of Chicago. Her height
Is feet 10 inches and her weight 30
pounds. She is. therefore, rather slcn-
der for her height. Tho young lady
has boon in the habit of having her
shoes made by Il cobblcr in the country
place near where She lives, and the lat
ter evidently has not been fitting her

shoes. which was sent hero with tho
order for the now pair. is Il rather crude
conception or what Il shoe ought To hc,
and cway it has been worn would in
dicatc that tho lady has corns. But such
Is not the case, as those state who know
her and her fcct.
Miss Ewing wanted tho new shoes
made next week in order that sho
might mako Il crcditablc appearance i'm
st. Louis during the coming festivities.
