AMERICAN AVIATOR FLYS OVER ANDES Flight by Faucett Most Daring Recorded in Sonth America Lima, Peru, Nov. g1, — What probably th# ‘most daring feat yet recorded in South América is the flight by an American aviafor, Eimer J. IFaucett, from Limg to:the Amazon port of Iquitos. Fducett, who is attached ta the staff of the National Aeronautic company, of - Peru, left Lima in a Curtiss *Oriole” plae, in an effort to win a prize of $5,000 for the first airplane flight from this capi- tal to Iquitos, offered by the Peruvian The first lap of the flight was to Chiclayo, 400 miles north of Lima. Faucett made_this distance in six hours, and landed safcly on the arid plains near that city. Several weeks were required to get the plane in condition for the sccond stage of the flight which was par-| ticularly dangerous in the absence of air maps or any other guides. Iquitas is more than;500 miles from Chiclayo in a straight air line, and the inter- vening country is as wild as can be found in South America. This region is a vast tangle of difficult, mountain passes, caseades and rapids until.the highest rafiges offthc Andes are passs ed at an &levation of from 16,000 to 17,000 feet.. The Maranon river and its affiluents, -which flow into the Ama- zon, have cut {remendous chasms in the ranges of the Andes, down which swift, turbulent streams flow in their courge to the Atlantic. Afier that come the tropical lands leading up to the Amazon proper, where impenetra- ble jungles and swampy wastes make travel of any kind difficult, Tt was over such n. country that Faucett had to fly wheén he made his | final “hop~off’’ from Chiclayo on Oc-| tober 6. Had his motor failed him, | no trace of aviator or plane would | probably éver ‘have been discovered. As it was, he was forced to land when | cnly 40 minutes of flying geparated | him from his goal. A driving rail and thunderstorm forced him down on an {slet in the /Tigre river, where his plane became' mired in the soft sand, causing him to ‘break a propeller. A passing launch from Iquitos picked him up and carried the strarded avia- | tor to the isolated Amazon port, where is aviation he was given a tremendous ovation, His fiying time from Chiclayo up to the moment of the accident was also gix hours,-or a total of 12 hours from Lima.

Little Com- pany, whence came the famous Sorosis Shoes, and the first and true - orthopedic shoe, namely the Prescription Shoe, has now come this New Kind of Shoe. ; THEALITTLE SHOES Removing the Obstacle to Wearing Proper Shoes HOES have proved a bane and blessing to the race—on the one hand a beneficent, S comely article of apparel; on the other, an instrument of slow torture, wrecking one of the most delicate mechanisms of the body—the foot. It has been stated that the wearing of improber shoes has in 90 per cent of our population resulted in dis- tinct weakening of the foot strueture. Practically every person coming to the physician - for foot relief knows the great remedial and prophylactic benefit of properly constructed shoes, but to the woman of today and to the average man, as well, broad toes and un- aainly lasts are greater horror than suffering feet. Shoes today must possess STYLE. When the choice is between outraged feet and outraged fashion, the majority of the peo- ple elect the former. With these facts as a working basis, the factories and laboratories of the A. E. Little Company have worked in conjunction with orthopedists to develop a shoe that compromises neither foot function nor the wearer’s appearance. The result is the A. E. LITTLE SHOE This néw development in footwear is of direct interest to medical men in several ways. First, it removes the great obstacle in getting people in general to wear proper shoea. It provides the style and smartness without which a shoe can never have ready acceptance. In recommending the A. E., Little Shoe, the physician ja almost certain to have his orders carried out by pa- tients, They will feel not embarrassed but truly proud to wear this trim, stylish shoe. They will feel not re- sentful but appreciative toward the physician for rec- ommending the shoe. The largest and more general signifimnce of inducing people to wear proper shoes is also of growing concern to the profession. Many of the nation's important forces for welfare are actively lining up to do battle for petter feet. Milllons of women are in poor physical condition, due to lack of wholesome exercise. They do not walk as much as they formerly did or' should. Bad posture, with re- swtant misplacement of vital organs or anatomic struc- tures, is chargeable in many cases to bad shoes. Then, again, the lack of mental poise and® composure, the wrought-up states of mind of many women, may be chargeaple, in some degree at least, to the aches and pains and muscular: exhaustion which seize feet, ankles, legs and even backs when shopping, walking or working. THE A. E. LITTLE SHOE HIS new shoe has come into being only after the most exhaustive research. Lendm‘ T orthopedic authorities have given freely of their ideas. Every one of the company’s retail Sorosis stores was turned into a field laboratory, and foot measurements of every Sorosis wearer reported on a special blank. As a result, the following principles have been worked out and incorporated in the A. E. Little Shoe: The shock-absorbing construction of the human foot is similar to the shock-absorbing construction of automobil® springs. Under strain or extra weight, the arch lowers and the foot lengthens, thus absorbing jolts and jars that might be harmful to the whole body. B Little Shoe gives a natural suspension to the areh, keup of this new A. bt iyt and gradually restores the works with the functioning of the foot as Nature intends, muscles to the proper condition. are used—nothing but the but the soles, uppers and sewed together through and through—no sag. This stitching is one of the secrots of the A. 1. Little Shoe's construction. It ties the parts togéther so that the arch of the shoe cannot possibly sag. Tt also makes possible a saddle, as part of the inner sole, which throws {he weight of the foot to the outside, as Nature intended. These, with other features, give the foot corgtant, shcdw mbsorbing support at each No arch sw#orts natural leather, counters are point. This method of sioe construction is a new idéa. The A, 1. Little Shoe is unlike any otheér shoe. Machinery had to be invented to do certain parts of the work, and one machine has taken more than twelve years to perfect, Thus, the A. E. Little Shoe is = : not merely a new style, but a - Jue SIS WA ol b Tt v new last p]us a new method Of struction. It ties the outer sole, the inner sole, the construction..
