TRY ON SHOES AT HOME.
a New idea I'm buying Shoes That
VIII lie Found Convenient.

VIII lie Found convenient.
There's a 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 custom
ers 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. flt, and
complete the sale ut the customers resi-
dence. An order is received, an idea
given of the goods desired, and a wagon
carrying n miniature shoe stock is dis
patched TO the home, accompanied by
tails are attended to In the privacy Of
the boudoir or reception room. And
thus the feet are shod without trouble,
annoyance or embarrassment.
Embarrassment? Yes, there is much
Of it that is connected with the pur-
chase Of a pair of shoes, slippers or
boots in 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 must be, as no directions can be
given by which husband, father or
brother can bring home a satisfactory
shoe. The styles are constantly chang
ing, and carefully rs the standard sizes
may be observed by the manufacturer,
either the foot OF the size of the shoe
seems to change at each new purchase.
The new scheme will also be APP
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
or of half a dozen youngsters, each Of
whom has kicked through all the stout
shoe leather of n few weeks before,
can already feel relief. The husband
on his way to the office simply leaves
directions and the job is done.-Chicago
