KILLED BY TIGHT SHOES.
Loekjaw Results from ar.Abrasion
On the Foot
Fate of St. Louis Mae Said to
Threaten Every Man and wom-
an Who Sacrifices Comfort
to Vanity.

Tight shoes has caused the death of
Philip Schneider, Of 2444 South Third
street, st. Louis. He died at the CITY
hospital of lockjaw in its most terrible
form. Otto Suffer, superintendent of
the hospital, says the same fatal disease
threatens every man and woman whose
vanity is stronger than their desire for
comfort. It is also possible result
from the wearing of coSets too tightly
laced.
SchreIoer's death was not the result
of vanity. He was a molder, in poor cir
instances. Recently he purchased
new pair of shoes which seemed to fit
when he bought them, but proved too
small when he had walked in them
awhile. They caused him considerable
pain, but he could not discard them and
buy another pair, because he had not
the money. Besides being tight across
the foot, the part that laced across the
instep bound Schreiber's feet securely,
and a sore began to form on the instep
of his right foot. 1t gradually developed
into an abscess, and Schneider decided
that he needed medical attention. The
sbscess seemed to affect his entire sys-
tenn. He applied at the city hospital for
treatment, but it was too late.
That such a fate awaits greater por-
ton of the feminine population of st.
Louis and large number of the male
persuasion seems improbable, but DR..
Suffer declares it to be fact.
Tight shoes are more apt than not |
to produce sores upon the feet" said the |
hospital superintendent, land lockjaw |
is more likely to result from such = |
sore than from one on any other part |
of the body. The reason is that short |
walk suffices to fill the shoes with dirt |
and dust, particles of which are apt to |
remain in the sore and cause lock- jaw to |
develop. Even with the advantage of |
antitoXin in the treatment of the dis |
ease it is still dangerous and must be
taken in time to prevent death.
Another possible source of danger
is the wearing of corsets. Women adj
dicted to tight lacing are in constant
danger, aside from that arising from the
compression of the vital organs. An exc
posed corset rib (they are usually Of
metaD may chafe the skin until an abb
scess forms, and, while the danger Of
lock jaw would be slight as compared
with that in the case of a sore on the
foot, it would be likely to result Sc
