What Mrs. Jenness Miller has done for her suffering sisters. The wave of common-*"euse "dress re form" and especialy "shoe letorm ' is gathering force as it wends ils way from Ue Atlantic to the Pacific When asked what led to the manufacture of the cele brated "Jenness Miller" shoe this apostle of comfort and beauty replied, "A cry ing demand from women all over the couutiy. From every audience I have addressed and they have numbered thousands in every city of note on the con inent, has com-; the question in tones of distress. What shall we wear upon our feet to be comfortable and look well?" I have answered that question in the shoe which today bears 1113 name. It is my own idea of a strictly liygenic, an atomical shoe, and gives the greatest possible amount of comfort, st_\ le and durability ever secured from a shoe. I co not think that I shall ever know greater satisfaction in life than the thought that it has been my privilege to solve the problem of foot comfort for my sisters throughout the.length and breadth of the land.
