ment.
In addition to the shoes there are casts
Of the human foot, showing It normal and
abnormal. 1t is shown where II has never
been clothed In leather and where It has
been improperly clothed. and again where
it has been always clothed in the proper
kind of footgear. The last mentioned, it is
scarcely necessary to say, is the most
pleasant for casual or minute inspection.
Altogether It is one of the most remark
able Industrial exhibits ever shown in
Washington, and will undoubtedly attract
more and more attention and comment
every day 1t is in place in the windows
where 1t is so well arranged.

Mr.. T.. J. Knickerbocker, recently

mer, and meeting his many friends
again before entering into his new
duties at Chicago.
Accompanying him is also Mr.. S.
]. Cooke, general freight agent for
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois.
Mr.. Knickerbocker has been coming
to Paducah for many years, and has
a host of friends here who will re-
greet that his new headquarters in
Chicago will probably prevent his
coming to Paducah very often.
81 can say this, however" said Mr..
Knickerbocker today. ~ know of
no city anywhere that | should
rather visit than Paducah. | think
your have one of the best towns in
the United States. like 1t, and the
most delightful people ] ever met
are in Paducah.
Mr.. Hummer, who succeeds Mr..
knickerbocker in this territory. has
already made large number of
friends in Paducah, and will come
here regularly.
Mr.. Cook is one of the most prom
inent freight agents in this section
of the country, and is well pleased
with Paducah.
The visit of these officials may be
significant in another way, as there
has been talk for several months of
the c.. and E. L. building through
Paducah. The gentlemen, however.
know nothing of the plans of the
roads.
