HOW CAN A BOOT BE WATERPROOr 

 AND NOT SWEAT THE FEET? Common 

 waterproof boots keep the perspiration in as well 

 as the water out, and perspiration that finds its 

 way through leather is kept in tlio rubber boot. 

 This renders the sock wet, ami, when tlie wearer 

 ceases walking, causes the cold claiuuiy feeling 

 Which is so objectionable and unhealthy. 



THE HANNAFORD VENTILATED 



RUBBER BOOT, 



while it is waterproof and as warm as any boot 

 made, provides away for the perspiration to escape; 

 at each step the foul air is forced out of the boot, 

 and when the weight of the body is removed from 

 tlio oomp;:essible top sole, fresh air is admitted to 

 the foot; thus the sock is kept free from the mois- 

 ture which causes the feet to become cold, sore, and 

 tender. Send for circular.
