READY-MADE SHOES.
NO MORE RAPID ADVANCE HAS BEEN
' ‘ MADE IN ANY INDUSTRY.
It is Said Philadelphia Leads the 'Wprld
‘ in Women's Wear and Fine / Leather.
There is Not the Least Occasion to Buy
Ill-fitting Shoes. .
The manufacture of shoes in this
country in recent years, has shown a
quicker and more scientific advance,
perhaps, than almost any other in-
dustry. In style, finish and fit the
American ready-made shoes of today
lead the world.
Custom-made shoes have very large-
ly become a thing of the past. Com-
pared with the number sold, the pen
centage of shoes made to order isin-
finitesimally small. The change has
come about within‘ the past twenty
years, and whereas formerly the
grades of shoes or the finished mate
rials for making them were nearly
altogether imported, the conditions are
now reversed.
It is said by aypromlnent Philadel-
phia firm that there is ten times the
quantity of fine kid leather exported
than is imported, and the export trade
in fine shoes is also becoming a factor
in the commercial world. Pegged
shoes may be said to have entirely
disappeared. Buyers of even the
cheapest grades demand shapely
shoes, that in style and appearance
nearly approach the finest grades,
whether at the expense of quality or
not.
Whereas, New England formerly
made 90 per cent of the women’s
shoes in America, the manufacture of
these shoes is now distributed west as
far as Chicago and south to Cincin-
nati and Baltimore. _ The very finest
footwear for the fair sex is, however,
made in Philadelphia. . Newark, N. J.,
is the centre for all the fine men’s
shoes made in the country.
Western manufacturers make heav-
ier and more durable shoes. The shoes
are plump and strong with more sole-
leather than perhaps needfpl but they
are a little too coarse for the East.
Eastern manufacturers have so sys~
tematized the business that even the
different weights of's'ole leather "are
finely graded, not an ounce more than
is necessary being used in any class
of shoe.
With the exception of the insoam
the whole of the sewing on even the
finest grades of show is done, by ma-
chinery. The inseam sews together
the upper, welt and inner sole, and the
reason it is still done by hand in the
fine grade shoes is that a thinner and
lighter inner sole can be used than
would be the ca'se if sewn by machin-
ery, and thus a greater degree of flex
ibility is attained.
After the leather and other findings
are supplied, there are still sixty- four
different processes necessary for turn-
ing out . 1a finished shoe. SciQtific
methods in the production of ready-
made shoes were introduced about
twenty years ago. Before that all
shoes were made on one or two
widths of lasts only. Since then the
lasts have been so scientifically regu-
lated that it is now possible to fit the
broadest and longest and the narrow-
est and shortest feet with equal ease.
The manufacturers of ready~made
shoes to-day produce six variations in
size for every additional inch in length,
and each of these six sizes is made in
seven different widths, or, in other
words, a purchaser has the Opportunn?‘
ity of selecting a shoe from amon
forty-two shoes, every one of which
differs. slightly from the others either
-D————-—'——
are approximately about his or her
size. This is one of the main reasons
why custom- made shoes have been so
universally supplanted. Unless there
is some deformity of the feel: it is pos-
sible for any one to be better fitted
with a ready-made’shoe than would
have formerly been the case with the
majority of custom-made shoes. .
Comparatively few purchasers had
their own individual lasts, and the
custom-made shoe was made on a last
that: the operator manipulated by
tacking on pieces of leather to con-
form to the measurements of the foot
to be fitted. The ready- made shoes
are scientifically made in such a vari-
ety of widths and lengths that the
most slender as well as the broadest
feet can be accurately fitted; , .
To such a fine point has last design
ing been carried that there is no occa‘
ready- made shoes that do not fit
the feet to perfection. So much
depends upon their skill and apti-
tude that good last designers
command rhigh salaries, running,
in some cases, into many thou-
sands of dollars. So great is the de
mand that Within the past. twelve

On that part- of the line 'in front 01‘
Atlanta '~ occupied by the Twentieth
. Corps the pickets often entered into an
agreement not to fire for anywhere from
half an hour to three hours. The pick-
et lines were so, close together that's
Yankee whisper could be heard by the
Johnnies. The show of a head or any
part of a body meant a shot, and usual
ly a wound or death. When the pickets
became so weery from sitting in the
“cramped picket pits that life was an al
most unbearable burden a truce was
called for. If the call came from the

“That’s our fix, too. Suppose-we stop'

“Mighty glad to‘ make- such a con
tract.” '
“All right. We will let up thro a min-
utes from now and give you three min
utes to get back into your pits before the
,shootiug begins.”
“It is a bargain.”
Then these brave men climbed out of
the pits, straightened their legs, stretch-
.ed their arms and talked to each other
on as fr iondly terms as so many farmers
who had met on a line fence might be
expected to do.
By and by the man who had led in
making the contract stepped out from
his associates and said: .
“I’m sorry, Yanks, but the time is up.

The pickets of the Second Massachu-

charmingly for more than an hour,
when a young ofiicer appeared on the

to go to firing.
“We can’t do it, sir," said the ser-

ETIQUETTE SATISFIED.
Lord Leighton was Ennobled Just in Time
to Save aWrang'le.
Sticklers for etiquette were much con-
cerned over the inscription engraved on
the lid of the coffin of the late President
of the English Royal Academy, which
described the mortal remains beneath
as those of “Lord” Leighton. It was
argued that, although the announce-
ment of the Queen’s intention to confer
a peerage was. published on N ow Year’s
day, the patent of nobility had not been
made out, so that he really died a bar
01191:, “and the inscription should have
read “Sir Frederick Leighton.”
The distinction did not seem worth
wrangling about in the presence of an
unburied corpse, but taste does not
count for much in those matters, and
the controversy fagod furiously, con-
currently with the preparations for the
funeral at St. Paul’s Cathedral. For-
tunately for the deconcios of life, all
doubts were finally set at rest by the ap-
poarance of the official London Gazette,
in which the Queen’ s pleasure was
made known 1n customary form. From

sibility begets carefulnoss, and that
sense is never so perfect as when, after
full consultation, the officer must go
alone into the chamber of decision. In

and in the case of ‘11 working man it
frequently involves considerable
trouble, and perhaps even less _of

of a, medical examination is practically
limited to the protection of the office

regards the‘ first year." With a pro-
viso, therefore, that death during the
first year should entitle the insured to
