Chicago shoestore Etiquette.
WASHINGTON Post.


There is one society woman in Washing
ton who came home from the Worlds Fair
wiser In some things as to the ways of the
Windy City than when she left the PRINT
tive capital of the nation, where the shoe
store clerks still knee down to try on their
customers shoes. The lady in question
tells the story on herself, so there can be
no harm in repeating it.
1t appears that, having worn out her
footgear in tramping around the exposi-
tion grounds, she went into one of the
fashionable shOestores. After having n
number of pairs of shoes brought out for
inspection she requested to have a pair
tried on. The clerk coolly seated himself
on the sofa on her right side, and reaching
down with dexterous moyem.nt
brought the customers left foot up aeeoss
bis knee and commenced unbottoning the
shoe.
"Of course wasn't going to let ON that
was green to the ways of Chicago" said
the victim of the incident in relating II
afterward. $50 l just sat there as thourh /
had been used to having my shoes tried on
