HOW CAJT A BOOT BE WATEKPKOOF 

 AND NOT SWEAT THE FEET? Common 

 iraterproof boots keep the perspiration in as well 

 as the water out, and perspiration that finds its 

 way through leather is kept in the rubber boot. 

 This renders the sock wet, and, when the wearer 

 •eases walking, causes the cold clammy feeling 

 wbieli is to objectionable *nd unhealthy. 



THE HANNAFORD VENTILATED 



RUBBER BOOT, 



while it is waterproof and as warm as any boot 

 made, prorldes a way for the perspiration to escape; 

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

 and when the weight of the body is removed from 

 tiie compressible top sole, fresh air is admitted to 

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

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

 tender. Send for circular.
