If a woman does not have beautiful feet it is her own fault. There is no country in the world which makes shoes as good looking, a.S healthy and as comfortable as this one. And there country which can produce anything like the quality we have at the prices we pay. It is not done by cheap sweated labor but by high-class, well-paid working communities. What has this got to do with foot beauty, you will ask.

This, that our shoes are not only designed to fit the feet, but to overcome or minimize their defects. There are exceptions, of course. Many shoes have heels that are far too high and toes that are much too sharply pointed. And cheap shoes concentrate on flashy trimmings while neglecting such fundamentals as support under the arches. But generally speaking, every word I've said is true.

the care of them is easy, Twice being forced into daily a deformity, Assuming that your feet are not each week, after a bath, clean under them with a nail file or an orangewood stick. Once each week manage it so the bath water is hotter than usual and so the feet. are immersed in it at least 15 minutes. Take one foot from the water. dry quickly, clean the nails and loosen as much cuticle from around the edges as possible.

Clip this off with ordinary curved manicure scissors. If you have corns, shave off the top layers with A saiety corn knife, rub off callous spots with a corn file. Rub cold cream or oil, around the toes and work it under each toenail. Where necessary, cut the toenails. I can guarantee that with good shoes this treatment will keep your feet healthy and good looking for ever.

A little occasional massage of the feet and ankles is a good thing. also, working the big toe back and forth to keep its joint flexible is an excellent way of preventing bunions, If you have these they can be cured Business College Adds 48 Typewriters in One Purchase is probably the is shown in the photo largest, do their practicing next fall at The machines attracted prices the battery of typewriters The typing department of machines, nine calculators, a most completely equipped schools Many of the machines for CAVES COLLECT Okoboji Club Girls Enjoy Meeting and Picnic on Friday Okoboji club, whose members are girls who have attended the Y.

KENT FORBES by osteopathy or by a foot specialist. Marion B. -Neither dancing nor walking will make your legs fat.

If they are increasing in size it must come from extra weight you are taking on all over your body, Dancing for several hours two evenings a week will make you more graceful, and the walking will help your leg muscles to be firm, but this does not mean they will be heavy and muscular. the patches of hair that bleached from the peroxide are the light gold which usually results from this sort of bleaching, you may darken them to a reddish, or henna shade by applying a henna paste to these places. You will have to dye the light patches if you wish them to be dark as the balance of your hair. Unless you have some skill, you take a risk of having an unevenly bleached head if you do the work yourself especially the first time and with black hair such as yours. Henna used to tint either gray hairs or to add a glint to a lifeless color may be undertaken by the least experienced.

You will improve on what you have done if henna now, or another of you use way handling it would be to have your head shingled, getting rid of as much of objectionable hair that you can spare, Trim once a week until all the mixed color is clipped off, which will likely not be more than a month because your own natural coloring will be coming out with the new hair from the roots. J. exercise for reducing heavy thighs is as follows: Stand erect, hands on hips, and with one foot slightly forward. Squat until about 12 inches above the floor, or when you all but sit upon the turned heel of upthe foot that was at the back. Rise and squat alternating many times, and as the thigh muscles are very strong they will take a great deal of exercising without tiring.

I The old-fashioned saying, "Children should be seen and not heard," should have passed forever from our present day experiences for greater understanding of what best promotes a child's growth has displaced the meager insight of former days, A recent experience proved the injustice of trying to hold to that worn-out maxim. Wee were having a delightful ride in the country. At my suggestion, we had turned from the much traveled highway to a road seldom used. I was enjoying the wealth of beauty all about me. Ten-year-old Elizabeth was bubbling over with enthusiasm about all the new things she was seeing and her questions came fast.

What were those flowers? Could she pick some? What was a eilo? What was it used for? Why? Did baby ducks come out of eggs like chickens? Why did the creek run only one way? Could COWS swim? that why they went into the water? There seemed to be no end to her questions. Her mother became quite impatient and answered her shortly and indifferently. She was intent upon telling me about her new clothes, about a bridge luncheon that she had just given and about Grace Brown's trouble with her husband. As continuous as the stream of questions from the child was the mother's light chatter. tried to answer some of the child's questions while attending politely to my hostess.

Finally, however, in exasperation Elizabeth's mother said, "You must keep still. I want to talk to Miss King and you disturb me." For a few moment there was silence and then the questions and comments began again until her mother raid. "Elizabeth, if you will keep still for half an hour I will give 50 cents." me she said, "That will hold her I think. The silly child has been trying to save enough to buy her father a birthday present and my offer will be an inducement." And indeed the promise of the 50 cents did seem to produce the desired effect. Several times her face lighted up and she almost spoke only to remember in time.

Twentyfive minutes passed when suddenly, with her little face all aglow, she burst out, "Oh Mother, what is that beautiful red bird?" yastd The -mother without turning her head in the direction of the bird, exclaimed. "There, you have lost your 50 cents! You can't keep still for even half an hour." Elizabeth's face fell and her eyes filled with tears. "Oh, I'm sorry. Now I can't buy Daddy's birthday present, but I did want to know what that bird was." "That," I answered, "was a scarlet tanager. I have one in my garden.

If mother will let you come over after school tomorrow, perhaps we can see it and I will toll you about it." And at that moment I decided that I was much in need of a little errand. girl Elizabeth for might several earn nights the 50 SO cents for her father's birthday in a reasonable way.
