The nerves are the most delicate and least understood part of the human
system.
They telegraph to the brain every trifling irritation.
You touch your finger to a red-hot stove—the nerves telegraph to the brain
that it hurts, and the brain telegraphs back, “ take your finger off the stove.”
The brain telegraphs this answer because it has beefi educated to know
what to telegraph.
You have noticed how utterly miserable you have felt afi.er wearing a
tight-fitting or poorly made boot for only an hour.
The entire nervous system was at a high tension, sending a continuous
message to the brain, crying for relief.
A trifling irritation on the foot is intensified many fold, because your whole
weight bears down upon it.
This is a serious matter, because the nerves concentrate on that point. It
disquiets the nerves, makes the body ache all over, and you cannot do good
thinking or good work.
It' is the same principle of nerve shattering that created a favorite means
o f torture during the days of the inquisition—water, allowed to drip slowly
upon a small spot on the head, drove men violently insane in an incredibly
snort time.
It may be a lump o f wax, a wrinkle in the lining, or the almost invisible
point of a tack, or a ridge of raised stitches.
So good thinking, good work in school or office, and bodily comfort depend
upon the proper dressing o f the foot— to secure absolute relaxation o f the nerves.
In QUEEN QUALITY SHOES the inner soles are smooth, the stitches
are all underneath and outside, instead o f right through the sole, as in machine
sewed shoes.
They fit better, because made on finer shapes—in more sizes and many
widths—and are lasted better, with the “ stretch” taken out of the leather.
If your feet are telegraphing now—this minute—that they want relief—
come
ie to us and let us start you right.
QUEEN QUALITY SHOES— buy them from a store that ridgidly in
spects all the shoes it sells»-and take time to be fitted properly.
