Show The 1'ower of the Shoe. If you are going abroad, turn a deaf ear to the travelers who know it all and assure you that wise virgins and thrifty take old boots to wear on the steamer. Never for one moment believe in that delusion, for it is a delusion of tho basest sort. Have you a single spark of vanity? Then carry your most irresistible Bhoes, and put them on, too, for never will they be displayed to better advantage. When the stormy winds do blow and whisk your sailor skirts about, don't you think a smart pair of patent leathers is going to do a great deal of execution upon susceptible sus-ceptible hearts as you take your morning morn-ing stroll along the hurricane deck or the jibboom or those other delightful promenades prome-nades which people take on shipboard? With earls and dukes always crossing, it is a chance not to be lost. New Y'ork World. |
