Trying on New shn..

One would hardly believe there are
special times and seasons for trying on
new shoes, but it is so. Larger shoes are
required in summer than in winter, and
IT is always best to try them on in the
latter part of the day. The feet are
then at the maximum size. Activity
naturally enlarges them or makes them
swell; much standing tends to enlarge
the feet New shoes should be tried on
over moderately thick stockings; then
you can put on thinner pair to ease
your feet If the shoes seem to be too
tight
