English boots and shoes do not fit
so well or feel so comfortable as the
imported ones. and also they make the
foot 'lCok large"
The manufacturers reply, according
to the confessions of their trade or
gans, is frank admission that their
boots do look too big. But they throw
the blame on the unfortunate last
makers, not half of whom. they aver,
know how to do more than shape a
block of wood into something resem-
bling a foot. "The artistic disposition
of the foot over the sole" is describe d
as the one aim and object of the
French and American lastmaker,
while its mere distribution" is said
to be the only object in this country.
This distinction is characterized as
mice" one, but it Is acknowledged,
nevertheless, to be "vital," ana it eX =

BRITAIN's VANISHING TRADE
English Boots and Shoes outclassed
by Foreign Makes.
From the London Express

From the London Express.
Slowly but surely the boot and shoe
manufacturing industry is dwindling
in England.
The board of trade returns for last
month show that we shipped over s.
900 pairs less than we did in the pre-
vious July. OF this shrinkage only
about half was due to the loss of the
South African trade, while the total
loss was valued at about G16000. This
raised the decline for the year to 25,
900 dozen, valued at G63.000.
Our imports of American and con-
tinertal boots and shoes are rising
rapidly, while we are reshipping less
and less of these importations to our
foreign and colonial customers. This
means that we are retaining more i'm
ported boots for our own use, and thus
still further reducing the market for
home made goods. We are buying
more largely than ever from the cute
Yankee and enterprising continental
rival. Though we sold 5000 dozen
pairs last month, we actually import
ed 700 dozen pairs more than in July,
1899.
4 retrospect is still more startling.
III 1870 We spent L 81 JOit On
boots this year our purchases have
risen to G450,2OC. Many may console
themselves that it is only cheap and
nasty" rubbish we import. But the
reverse is the fact. Not only is the
quality in the goods We import inn
proving even more rapidly than the
quantity. but it is already 20 per cent.
higher than the price of the footwear
we dispatch to our own customers
abroad
Why is it that our shoe trade Is
thus dwindling and being snapped up
by foreigners? a host of factors may
be suggested, and each may play its
part in the general shrinkage; but
one cause stands out prominently.
Ladies and gentlemen desiring neat
and attractive footwear buy French
and American goods simply because
