what impressed me most when
visited New York; says Harry Fur.
Miss, the well-known English cartoon
list, in his "reminiscences" in the
Strand, was the number of chiropo
dists' advertisements. They con,
fronted me everywhere. Huge gilded
models Of feet outside the chiropo-
dists' establishments, some painted
realistically and many adorned with
bunions, seemed everywhere before
me rs passed through the streets, II
looked up l saw them Suspended
from the first-hoor window, or painted
on canvas on the front Of house. II
l avoided the shops I was bound tc
knock up against some gsntlsrnan in
the gutter encased In 4 long white
waterproof. on which we're portrayed
the inevitable foot and name and I'D.
dress Of the chfropodist."
