THE "BUNION" SHOE.
Plenty of room for enlarged joints close
ly fitting elsewhore.
This describes shoes mnde on tho "Bun-
Ion Lusts."
The foot with the bunion was very much
like other feot before tho bunion grow.
It needs a shoe having more room In cer
tain points.
It has been Impossible to obtain a satis
factory fit In ready made shoo.
Tho nearest approach to It was obtained
by buying a shoo which was ;two or three
sizes too long or too wido.
The "custom shoe maker"has frequently
failed, to give a satisfactory fit Simply be
cause ho had no last of propor shape to
work on.
He put on a bunch here and a bunoh
there, but the outline was wrong and tne
shoo didn't fit.
Tho"I3mi!on Shoo" is the only shoo that
will fit the foot with a bunion or an en
larged joint. Tho words "Bunion Shoe"
and "Bunion Last" registered as trade
mark, May 71 1803.
