TRY ON NEW SHOES AT HOME.
New Scheme for the Relief Of Timid Maid
ems and Many Others as Well.

New Scheme for the Relief Of Timid Maid
and Many Others as Well.
There's new thing in the shoe bust
ness. A man who has been at it in this
city for a number of years and knows
all about the whims of customers and
the ms and outs of the trade, has hit
upon the novel scheme. His plan is
simple, but most practical. 1t is no
more than to measure, fit and complete
the sale at the customers residence.
An order is received, an idea given of
the goods desired, and a wagon carry
ing a miniature shoe stock is dis
patched to the home, accompanied by
an experienced salesman. All the de-
tails are attended to in the privacy of
the boudoir or the reception room.
And thus the feet are shod without
trouble. annoyance, or embarrassment.
Embarra ssment? Yes. there is much
of it that Is connected with the pur-
chase of a pair of shoes, slippers, or
boots in a public store. With many
fashionable and other Young women it
is an hour to be dreaded when the shoe
store must be visited. And visited it
by which husband, father. or brother
can bring home q satisfactory shoe.
The styles are constantly changing,
and carefully as the standard sizes may
be observed by the manufacturer, either
the foot or the size of the shoe seems
to change at each new purchase.
The new scheme will also be ap-
proved by many others. How many
portly matrons will hail with delight
the opportunity of selecting their shoes
at home? Then there are housewives
young mothers. semi-invalids. equity
old men, timid young women, who will
appreciate the new idea, and the moth
er of half a dozen youngsters, each OF
whom has kicked through all the stout
shoe leather of a few weeks before, can
already feel relief. The husband on
his way to the Office simply leaves d.
rections and the job is done.-Chicago
