Yet in appearance, it is totally different from the so called "common-sense" shoes which usually are clumsy and shapeless. But here, there is no suggestion of clumsiness, not even in this mannish Oxford. It is of Gun Metal, flexible, handsome and satisfying.

All sizes and widths $3.00 the pair. JOSEPH HORNE CO. PENN AND FIFTH.

JOSEPH HORNE CO. PENN AND FIFTH. Forty-eight years ago great men were arising to meet, master and overcome the varied and vexed problems of National, State and local import. The exigencies of those days called for the services of many brainy men. At the time written of Lincoln and Greely were deeply intrenched in the public mind, and no publication more faithfully portrayed and illustrated the now historical events than Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper.

During the weeks of irKW5 just past Leslie's Weekly has reproduced from Ihe valuahle old files a number of interesting illustrations and articles depicting the stirring events connected with this important period in our earlier history. In tomorrow's issue of the Weekly a noteworthy reference will be made to Frank Islie's personal work as it was carried on by him in the summer of 1C8 In his strenuous crusade against impure and distillery milk, on which evil some cities are just beginning to take determined action. Frank Ieslle was threatened many times with death and annihilation in many forms, and his artists and reporters, and himself even, were attacked on several occasions by male stable attendants referred to in Leslie's vigorous articles at "Hibernian Milk Maids." In this dav and age we keenly appreciate the vital importance of pure food, and particularly a pure milk supply, as bread and milk are the most important articles of food. Too much credit for the benefits we enjoy in this respect cannot be given to Leslie for his effective work, which, so well begun by him, has been carried on all these years by his contemporaneous worker, the original inventor of condensed milk, Gail Borden by name, the product of whosa brain is still being xitilized. This great humanitarian achieved marvelous results in the saving of hosts of children's lives and in promoting the general health of New Yorkers, by the sale of his condensed milk, produced under his scientific dairy regulations.

Too many shoes are like the wooden lasts over which they are made stiff and unyielding. They have to be "broken in. "When a shoe is broken to conform to the foot, the original lines must be changed. The shoe thus becomes loose and shapeless.
