A celebrated European traveller, while in St Louis recently, was escorted through one of tho large shoe factories for which that city is famous, and was greatly asbon- ished at what he saw.
 The old way Of making shoes, in which one man started and completed the shoe, has entirely changed. Now each operator does just one part toward completing the shoe, and in going from the cutter to the fnisher's hands the shoe is handled by 50 different people, one-half of whom are girls.
 The gentleman interviewed several of the operators and found that in manufacturing high grade shoes, such as is made by the Desnovers Shoe Co.,, that only the best help is employed, and they receive corresponds ingly high wages.
 The gentleman had seen these goods in all the large cities in this country, and was not surprised to learn that the firm is supply ing fine shoes to $500 large dealers. lie carried awaya a pair of their shoes with him as a memento of his visit, and is now ad- vising his friends to buy no other
