the feet have tendency to swell, much
relief will be found by using cushions IN

thicknesses Of old cloth, bagging, carpet
lining, or horse blanket. stitched to-
gether and covered with old carpet or
drugget, the edges turned in and over

Hence he must have met his wife among other

getting a wife. despite the fact that he was a

How many women would to-day marry a pub

cognizant Of the fact that he one cursed by
