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 "fashionable boot and shoemakers." All who suffer from corns, etc., and all who are free from these evils and wish to remain so, should purchase and wear shoes made on the principles adopted by Mr. John McKeown, manufacturer of gents' fine hand-sewed boots, No. 419 Broadway. This house was founded in 1878 at No. 298 Broadway, and continued at that address till 1882, when in consequence of increasing business Mr. McKeown removed to his present eligible and centrally located premises. In the manufacture of his shoes, he combines elegance, comfort, and durability. Employing only first-class workmen and using only the best French leather, and all work being hand-sewed, he confidently recommends his stock of boots and shoes as equal in every respect to custom-work. Having so many widths and sizes conforming to the natural size of the foot, he finds no difficulty in fitting his customers at once, unless the foot is distorted, when he prefers to make after careful measurement. Mr. McKeown is highly esteemed by the community for his great practical skill and integrity, and the success he has obtained is only the just reward due to his energy, skill and perseverance.
