The Jones Patent Foot Support.

The Inventor of this Foot Support and Shoe is a Shoemaker by profes- sion, has worked at the bench for IS years, and is lame in one limb-iu be- ing 6 inches shorter than the other and has made all kinds of High Cork Shoes, but none of them can be com . pared to this patent foot support
 1t makes TO difference how short your lame limb is: if it be from F inch up to 12 inches or more. This patent covers two designs. One is for persons over inches short. and the other is for persons less than inches short, therefore we can fill any order.
 With this patent Foot Support you can be made to appear as if you had no lame limb whatever, and it is worth a great deal to look like. other people.
 You can go into any shoe store and buy any kind of shoe you wish Gift the foot of the sound limb only, our ex- tension will go in the other shoe). In case you wear low quarters, house slippers, dancing pumps or ties, pull a stocking over the patent shoe before you put it in the other shoe, so that if a lady Ifs her dress. or a man rolls his pants up in bad weather, an ob- server oE4y sees a stocking.
