The Shoe Situation.

Footwear jobbers are holding off until assur-
ed that the late advances asked by manufac-
turers are to be maintained and are not dis
posed to place more than supplementary
contracts for winter goods; business for spring
delivery has not been in very large volume as
yet. While business in leather is considerably
better than a month ago, it has fallen off in
volume this week, chiefly owing to higher ask
ing prices.-Dun's Review, Nov. 4th.

EDOYITE HEALER
 PRACTICED WITHOUT LICENSE. Willis Vernon Cole Taken from His
 Luxurious Office in Test Case.

New York, Jan. 15.-Willis Vernon Cole, who lives at the Hotel Walton, Seventieth street and Columbus ave- nue, and says dle is a Chrietian Sci ence practitioner, was arrested in 8 he used as an office on the ninth floor of the Brunswick building, at 225 Fifth avenue, late yesterday afternoon, by Detectives Reich and Laukman of the Central office, on a charge of violating section TIA, chapter 49. of the public health laws in practicing medicine without license.
 The detectives found the offices well filled with fashionably dressed men and women, who shared the practi- tioner's indignation at his arrest. One of the men insisted on taking the de- tectives and their prisoner in his auto to the Night and Day bank where he drew $500 which he gave as bail.
 The arrest was made on complaint of Isabella Goodwin, a police matron on the staff of Inspector Russell, who obtained warrant from Chief Mag istrate McAdoo yesterday on the basis of evidence she had gathered. In the night court she told Magistrate F'reschi that she had asked Cole to treat her for palpitation of the heart, and that he had told her he could cure her.
 Thereafter, she testified, he kept his eyes closed for fifteen minutes, telling her that she was responding to treat ment. She said he charged her $2 for this and told her subsequent visits would cost her only $1.
 The Medical Society of the County of New York was represented in court by John G. Dyer, assistant to it's counsel; Almuth c. Vandiver, who had been asked to attend by Inspector Russell. E. R. Cox, a Christian Sci euce publiSher who was present said he understood the present proceedings were to be made test case. MT. Cole asked for an adjournment until Jan. 26, that he might get counsel, and entered a plea of not guilty. The ad- journment was granted and MT. Cole was released on bail.
 Virgil O. Strickland, first reader of the First Church of Christ. Scientist, said last night that MT. Cole was properly qualified Christian Science practitioner, and that he knew of no reason why he should have been ar- rested.

 He puts them there, you sooi If, when he's home, his den is swept.
 He laughs right merrfly. He wipes his feet upon the mat
