evident that the shoe dealer is still
ahead in the race with the big store
that sells everything.
While the phrase boots and shoes'
Is still commonly current, high boots
are not used nearly so much. even in the
country as they were few years ago.
STYLES are changing constantly, and with
the improvement in shoemaking the
demands of fashion are more insistent
The shoe retailers stimulate their bust
ness by inventing all sorts Of pretty and
attractive shoes for women. The women
formerly bought shoes when they needed
them, now they must have shoes because
they are stylish. The vogue OF having
shoes TO match the color of every gown
is failing, but miady must needs have
much pretty footwear.
For men the styles do not fiuctuate as
much as they did six or seven years ago,
when one summer II was tans, the next
season blacks, then tans again. The shoe
men have tried hard to bring on a tan
fever" again. and this year have been
partially successful. The reason why the
fancy colored shoes are not so popular
now is perhaps because of the universal
popularity Of patent feathers.
Several years ago the patent leather
shoe was used only for dress occasions.
Now Il Is worn all the time. The I'm
provement IN the manufacture of patent
leather has been wonderful, and while
the shoe dealers will not guarantee It
against splitting or cracking, experience
has proved TO most men that II is fairly
durable. In Eve years the production Of
patent leather has increased six-fOld in
quantity. The shiny leather which Is 50
easily cleaned and polished, has taken
the country by storm.

Just here comes in one Of the great
problems Of the shoe business. The shoe
making machinery is controlled by one
concern, The United Shoe Machinery
Company It owns the patents. Without
its machines no man can make shoes in
competition with those who do use them
1t not only has a complete MONOPOLY
on many Of the patents, but makes a
condition in leasing its tools that the
lessee shall not buy or rent tools and
machinery from any other concern. The
legislature Of Massachusetts has passed
a BILL which becomes effective to-day,
prohibiting the imposition Of such condi-
lions in a machinery lease. The demand
in England for American-made shoes has
forced the English manufacturers 10 irni-
tate the American article, and they, TOO.
have been forced 10 come 10 the United
Company fer machinery The same con-
ditions were imposed, and now a com
mittee Of the House of Commons has

portion Of the contract other States are
expected TO follow the example OF Massa-
chusetts in this country. The Federal
Department Of Justice has been requested
by American shoe manufacturers TO pro-
coed against this trust.
