The Care of the Feet.

"There is no necessity whatever for
so much complaint of the feet if people
could only be induced towear the prop
err kind of shoes, said a surgeon who
has made the foot the subject of special
study. 1.-THE great mistake that is
made is in selecting shoes that are too
short. No matter how loose they are,
the shortness is the cause of the trouble.
The ends of the bones are crowded
together. and with continual grinding
an irritation takes place and an infam-
nation is set up that may remain as
long as life lasts. French women are
admitted as having the most beautiful
feet of any women in the world, and the
reason of this is that they refuse to
wear short shoes, but select those that
are long enough to give the feet per-
feet freedom. The average woman who
wears No. d, would find her health,
comfort and appearance greatly inn
proved by selecting AZ C. The most
important of all items in getting shoes,
after the proper length is secured, is to
have them fit snugly around the instep.
This keeps the foot from driving for
ward into the shoe, as it would do were
1t loose over the instep. Large shoes
allow the toes to press forward, and
are more injurious than snug ones; in
deed, it is easy to see how the feet work
ing on an incline will crowd down upon
the toes, putting the delicate bones out
of place, and laying the train for no end
of misery" IN. Y. Ledger.

THE oAo BELL COW.

When 1 was but boy used so happily to
roam
Through every nook and corner of the dear
old country home.
At GCWl n1oIa pasture | would drive
the COWS ard when
The sun was fading in the west drove
them home again.
There was one among their number re-
member very well,
It seems but yesterday I saw the COW that
wore the bell.
She wasn't any prettier nor of better
breed,
But all the others followed her wherever
she would lead;
And In my youthful mind I used to wonder
why and how
It was that all the cattle tagged the old
bell COW.
Strange years of shadow and of shine have
passed away since then,
And now l mingle daily with the busy
hosts of men,
And still l muse as earnestly as what
used to do,
For men, l find are likewise quite peculiar
creatures, too.
And some have natures made of gold, with
out a speck or flaw,
While some are only g1lded forms all
padded out with straw.
And while the modest, worthy man the
world may never heed:
The counterfeit, who loudly brags, steps
in and takes the lead,
The one who 'toots his horn" is sure to
get the crowd and now
know why all the cattle tagged the OLD
bell COW.

losing favor, and applique and genuine
point d'Angleterre are replacing them.
A bit of real lace is now a welcome
gift even to very young women, as it
is used as cravat bow or iabot with
very simple costumes.
Dark chine and Persian ribbons are
used in many stocks. while others are
bands of satin around the neck, with
fiaring circular ruffle of miroir velvet

Quite young women wear wells and
collarettes of black Brussels net or of
mousseline de sole, on which white APP

and a very slender vine.

1.-THE WAY OF THE WORLD"

We hear of wrong that is done in the land
Of some shaft that is needlessly hurled
Or some heart that is broken; and quick we
reply,
In our haste: "'Tis the way of the
world"
The way of the world for the rich and the
strong
TO impose on the poor and the weak!
The dark, bitter spirit of hate and revenge
To tread down the true soul that is meek
We thoughtlessly drink from the fountain
of sin,
And from pleasure to pleasure are
whirled,
And our only excuse to conscience out
ragged
Is this Its the way of the world
The way of the world to tread errors broad
road
Forsaking the heavenly way:
Forsaking the wisdom that comes from
above,
And the light of the infinite day.
Some go on, and on in their folly. till death
In their midst. has his black flag un

We have been sitting on
the ragged edge Of a damp
cloud for the past two weeks,
contemplating the result in
the event of the non-arriVal
of the S. @. Wilder, with our
cut glass ware and other ar
ticIeS which we had selected
for the holiday trade. Yes
terday the tension on our
nervous system relaxed; the
Wilder arrived and twenty
four hours after this goes
into print, we will have a
display of fine goods on our
counters, such as never was
seen here before.
The additional space re-
quired has been obtained by
doubling up on our show
counters, making new ones
and changing around some
of the old ones on the second
floor. We're ready for bust
ness and the number of sales
of holiday goods we have
made during the past three
weeks constrainS us to be-
lieVe that the business is
ready for us.
By the Wilder we have all
kinds of things suitable for
Christmas gifts. Many of
them are in cut glass, and
they comprise: Saucers, Salao
Dishes, Rose Bowls, Pickle
Jars, Butter Tubs and Plates,
Ice Cream Trays, DecanterS,

What Has Been Arranged as an
Attraction for Jan. 1. 1897.
The lack of attractions so far ar
ranged for New Years Day has be-
come such a vexing question for peo-
pie who wish for some special diver
sion at that time that it has stirred up
the football enthusiasts to a working
point. and now the proposition is TO
choose two teams from the ranks of
the Town, Punahou and First Regi-
ment Teams TO play on New Years
Day. This will be done as soon as pos
sible, so as to allow the new team to
get down again into good, hard train
ing. Two teams chosen in the man
ner mentioned will furnish material
for very spirited game, but probably
the most exciting game which could
be arranged for would be the Punahou
students pitted against the Town Boys
The score of the last game between
these teams, together with their play
ing, showed only too we'll how closely
matched they were. Then again, if
two teams are chosen in the manner
suggested they will not have centered
in them the interest that teams rep
resenting some institution such as Pu-
nahou or some organization such as
the H. A. A. c. always claims. At all
events, there is to be a game, and an
effort will be made to have the band
to make the occasion all the more
lively.
