We are bound to be at the front
with the standard Of our shoes. 1t
is one that people should know
about, and one we want them to
know about.
Too much can hardly be said in
praise Of some Of our shoes, but in
stead Of trying TO tell all their good
points we prefer that the goods
speak for themselves. If you have
never tested their merits, suppose
yOu give them trial.
EVERY BRIGHT DAY brings to
mind the need of something light for
summer wear. Russell is fayOrite
color in nearly all styles and the
lighter shades are very popular.
We can show our stock Of these
goods TO better advantage if you will
call than we can describe them here.

"That Uncomfortable Shoe -
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1892-06-03

Very much has been
said and written about
narrow toes and the
baueful results from
wearing shoes of such
shape. The great evil Of
narrow-toed shoes lies in
the ignorance onthe part
Of the shoemaker in con-
structing them. Narrow,
toed shoes can be had
that are in no ways hurt
full, but, on the contrary
quite comfortable. So
long as the great toe is
not thrown aside from
its normal position. no
harm can come Of mar
row toes, unless the
wearer insists upon hav-
ing them so short as 10
induce ingrowing nails. q"

The quoting Of this verse from Byron
reminds me of one other sight from the
heights Of the Campanile, viz: the
view OF the little island of st. Lazzaro
and the Armenian convent where he
resided in 1915, which visited a day or
two ago and where / was shown his
room, his writing desk, his ink stand
and quill pens, just as he left them al,
and where he wrote part OF Child
Harold and some Of his fugitive poems,
They have painting OF him as he APP
peared at that time, when he was about
thirty, that looks incredibly boyish,
wherein he is portrayed with ruddy
cheeks and curly hair, and wearing a
rundown collar Of large dimensions
without O necktie. ByronS ao.called
Irresistible face" does not appear at
all irresistible, but on the contrary has
something decidedly sinister in it. And
yet it was "a face upon which no man
or woman ever looked with indifEer-
ence:"
asked the Armenian who conducted
me through the convent, who, by the
way, could speak excellent English,
about the Byronic traditions OF the
place, how the eccentric man happened
to come to such a retreat, "He came
here to study the Armenian language.
he replied, ITO escape dissipation OF
mind aud body. He was very IN.
happy man here Us elsewhere. How
could 1t be otherwise? Sometimes he
was all discipline and study, almost an
ascetic, and again he relaxed and was
his former self. He lived here as are.
cluse, among us but OF course not Of US"
This Armenian monk interested me
very much as we walked and talked.
He showed me very old books and
manuscripts. They have great collec-
ton Of Armenian literature Of this sort.
The convent Is headquarters for the
world in respect to all that relatesI p
tho Armenian rite IN the Catholic
church, which Is something like the
ceremonial OF the Greek church. They

TAE ITALIAN POOR.

had for my fellow passengers in the
gondola two ladies from the north Of
England, nen'Leeds, one of whom had
had much experience in economic and
social reforms among the poor Of that
region; and as our gondoiier lazied along
over the bay we fell to discussing var
ious phases Of Italian life, and especial
ly the life Of the poor. Twas somewhat
surprised to hear her say that the
Italian poor were q much more likeable
and preferable people in her judgment
thanher countrymen OF the same class.
~ say that" she explained. "because Of
their different treatment of their tami-
lies, their wives and children. There is
great deal of brutality in a domestic
way in our country" she said. "and it
makes me heart sick at times. Look at
the wife;beating record in our country
as published in our papers; 1t Is awful.
You do not see that in Italy, and / be-
lieve it does not exist to any consider
able extent. They do not get drunk
like our poor; they do not come home
and beat those at their mercy; aud
hence like them better than the same
class Of people in our own country"
AS l have never INDUCED in any spe-
cial compliments as regards the Italians
during my stay in their country l
thought l would give them tho benefit
OF this good word on their behalf on
the eve of. my leaving. The lady in
question is q Quaker and kinswoman
OF the great John Bright. She is very
earnest aud practical woman and
highly intelligent on what are called in
England social reforms. / have lis
tened to her several times at the hotel.
think this letter may properly end
here. There is very much in regard to
Venice and 'itsipeculiarities that would
like to crowd into it. There are the
galleries, the museums, the churches,
the shops, the cafes, the lotteries, the
pigeons of st. Mark, the old Rlalto OF
Shylock and Antonio memory, the
little markets, the old tile roofs and
their dormitories, the serenades at our
hotel every night, in which we hear
good SINGING and good music from very
common looking people; and the sing
ing and music also that comes TO us in
the moonlight from gondola parties on
the water, and that reminds US that we
are in . region where music fills the
night though cares infest the day." OF
all these aud many more matters may
write You atanother time. Meanwhile,

stands adjourned without day" as re-

quoted very briefly in my appeal to the
Egyptian obelisk at Rome to throw
some light on the yexed mystery in re-
gard to St Peter, and suggested to the
monk that this would be good time
to address thewhole poem, If l only had
it, to the PROSTATE Egyptian before me,
for he looked comfortable andconyersa-
tional and almost intelligent. True, his
fellow countrymen, and perhaps his i'm;
mediate contemporary, the obelisk, had
not as yet responded to my interroga:.
tory as to whether it had ever looked
on st. Peter, and especially as towheth-,
or he had been buried at Its base,
but still was not SO utterly discour-,
aged by its cold reticence as to have
sighted this mummy, II ] had only had
the poem. did not forget that there
is at least this difference between an
ohelisk and mummy, that the latter
was once animate-once, had an ear at
tuned to the human voice and q re-
sponsiye tongue, and therefore might by
some miraculous eccentricity speak yet
once again. Who knows? / had seen
a Bambino at Rome that had never
breathed and never spoken doing q
thriving miracle business, and why not
this mummy? 1t might, for all ] knew,
be one Of those same miracle workers
that stood before Pharaoh and compet-
ed so sharply with Moses and Aaron. It
might, therefore, have responded II l
had only had the proper Incarnation at
hand. But l had not, and therefore the
lotus eater from the Nile was allowed TO
sleep undisturbed.

OF my school days, and OF school-book
literature in those days, the old Ar
menian, like Pharoah's chief butler or
baker II. forget which,, suddenly re.
membered that yea RS ago an American
like myself had come along and moral
ICED over this mummy in much the
same fashion,. and had repeated por-
ton Of that same school-book poem,
and had SO impressed the Armenian
with its app ropriatenesa that he had
extracted promise from him that he
would, on returning home, copy off the
poem and send 1t to him, and this he
had done, said the old man, just as he
promised, "and 1 now have 1t some
where among my manuscripts" As
proof that he had he copied it off for
me adaS oF two afterwards and sent It
to mo BY mail. and l am now equipped
and ready for the first mummy that |

that original specimen in London, to
whom the lines were especially ad-
dressed.

very much. 1T Is an old and quaint
place, but unlike several converts that
i have visited, has really something
worth while in it, something that be-
