The sides of the heel have two wings tapering toward the front, and said sides, as well as the rear of the heel, are provided with a row of stitches, and the face of the pad is provided with rows of hexagonal ridges with small selnispherical projections in the hollows.

The pad consists of a horseshoc-backin g A, to which is secured by rows of stitches fthe pad proper, B, the front portion of which is horseshoe shape and is beveled inwardly and outwardly and terminatesin the heel portion C of greater width. The front of said heel has two beveled scallops c c, having their dividing-line in the axis of the heel, and two wings c2, tapering toward the front. The face of the pad is provided with rows of hexagonal ridges b with small semispherical projections in the bottom of the hollows, and within the periphery of the cavity of the pad there is a horseshoe-shape ledge e, provided with a row of stitches d. The rear and sides of the heel are also provided with a rubber ledge f, integral therewith and provided with a row of stitches d to secure the pad to the backing.

Having now fully described my invention, I claim- The design for a horseshoe-pad as herein shown and described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
