| TEXT | None can doubt that most of the diseases-and deformities of the feet are directly or indirectly caused by want of knowledge or thought on the part of those who call themselves "boot and shoemakers." They are in ignorance or regardless of the principles on which the covering of the feet should be constructed. Too often, however, the fault is with the wearer, who will obstinately and unwisely insist on wearing shoes too narrow or too short, and sometimes both, thus crowding five toes into a space not sufficient for three. All these evils are avoided by employing a first-class custom bootmaker, like Mr. K. H. Giblett, No. 334 Fourth Avenue. This house was originally founded in 1859 by the present proprietor, who has built up an extensive trade, in consequence of his skill and knowledge of the complex organism of the human foot. The deformities and excrescences which appear on feet would not be supposed possible, and if exact drawings of them were made and exhibited, you would say, as a humorist once declared at a favorite watering-place where many were bathing, that "the most hideous thing in nature is a man's foot." In the manufacture of his boots and shoes, Mr. Giblett aims at elegance, comford and durability, and employs only first-class workmen, using only the best French leather. All work is hand-sewed, and he guarantees that all goods made by him shall be free from the annoying squeaking noise common even with the productions of prominent anatomical boot-makers. Mr. Giblett is greatly respected by the community for his strict integrity and geniality of disposition, and persons wanting really first-class boots and shoes cannot do better than leave their orders at this establishment. |
