WATCH YOUR STEP
New Shoes.
BY THE CONDUCTOR

T aint got nothin' agin shoe stores, but I sure do hate hoofin around in new pair 70 shoes.
 Its all wrong this boot an shoe racket, it's all wrong. Nature didn't make us ginks so we could slap OK hide all over our ankles an toes any mOre'n she made our hands to have castiron mits on 'em.
 If any guy starts taIkin' bout his toe nails, you think he's indecent l don't wonder. They keep their toe nails cramped up so long they ain't nobody got feet fit to look at. I don't mean corns an bunions. Pm talkin' about tn shape O your toes. You just take a peek at your little toe tonight, an you'll say I'm right. It's a little, curled up, hump backed bunch O flesh an muscle with a nail stickin' way seed, only crookeder That's tn way your little fnger'd look if you'd squeeze it in a lead pipe all day, an only take it out nights.
 That's what's tn matter with us feeble minded mutts Them feet of part of us. Stead O that, we press all the blood out of 'em, don't let tn rain wash 'em or tn sun dry 'en, an go hoppin around on 'em like they was alive.
 "'Tain't no wonder we ketch cold when we get 'em damp. You don't ketch cold when you get your hands wet. You don't get cOrns an buntons on your hands. You get calloEses. That's what you ought to have all over tn bottoms of your feet Cal louses is good for 'em.
 'AH them people preachin' an hol- lerin' back to nature q better yell for folks to get their feet on tn ground, Now they got X-ray skirts an Swiss cheese clothes, they'd live longer if they hop around in foot mits an cut them shoes.
 Don't stand on them women's feet.
 ''They's plenty O standin' room in side tn car.
 Look where you step!"

Catarrh cannot exist where Peruna is taken accord ing to directions" (See Ills of Life,' sent free by the Peruna Co.,, Colum- bus, Ohio.)"
 In later letter dated January 1, 1900, MT Atkinson says, after five years experience with Peruna: q will ever continue to speak a good word for Peruna. In my rounds as a travelling man I am a walking adverz tisement for Peruna and have induced many people during the past year to use Peruna with the most satisfactory results. I am still free from catarrh.'

The victims of tobacco are obsessed with the notion that they cannot long be without it and, to indulge in it, they become entirely oblvious or the feelings of others who are in @ large majority So powerful is this selfish ness to overcome all other considera- tions that even gentlemen or, rather, those who are in all other respects classiiable as gentlemen are constant .Ly seen smoking in public places.

It's a hard hearted world, and no one cares for the man who is down and out unless he has a relative or a pal to stick to him. Yesterdays news gave two remarkable illustrations-on of a patient in the poor house who was arms length from the envelope con- taining the money necessary to let him have the treatment that might pro- long his life, and another of a man with bank account to his credit being buried in Potter's field. Is there anyone in this world who can say truthfully that he is really so inde- pendent of all his fellow creatures that he doesn't care what may happen to the other fellows Waterbury Repub- lican.
