aUorsaa Ella whneinr

ut was in the early days Of railroad
ing i'll the south, remarked the gentle
man with the stock of "reminiscences the
other day. Il was located in Florida
about the time when the governments
had made vassals of the Seminole Indi-
n OF that state, and in order to impress
the redoubtable Billy Bowlegs, tho Te-
Cumseh Of tie Seminoles, il had invited
that heap big ohieftain' to make a trip
to the seat Of the national government.
Billy was n bit dubious about accepting
the invitation, fearing possibly that the
great father at Washington might have
designs upon bis life OF happiness, but
he was prevailed upon to make the trip,
and he embarked on board of the train
with a great show Of courage. The
trains of that period were not the fiers
Of today-in fact, on many Of the short
lines the engineers were compelled to
get out Of their cabs and walk to tighten
the train and permit it to proceed at an
even rate Of speed. When Billy Bow
legs returned from, his visit, he had
overcome lis trepidation and looked
with scorn upon the locomotives. ] Wis
tied Billy a day or two after his return
and asked him low he liked travelling
on the iron horse.
Huh, ne said, with an upward
twist of his prominent proboscis, horse
wild wheels no good! Big heap no good!
Me- on horse better than two. Run way
all time. White mar heap smart. In
jim heap better. HUH New Orleans

SUFFER FROM "FLAT FEET"
How the Breaking Down of tho Arch L
Remedied by O Steel Gtrip,

How the Breaking Down of tho Arch IL
, Remedied by q Steel Strip.
Despite the fact that the beauty of a
we'll arched foot ia much appreciated by
people OF IN artistic turn of mind, has
been sung frequently by poets and verse
makers, there has been until lately 1T
tie interest, from a scientific point Of
view, taken IN it's direct opposite-the
nat foot. In a great number Of instances
flat feet are the occasion Of considerable
keen suffering, generally regulting from
the breaking down OF tho aroh-that is,
the displacement Of some of the many
little bones Of the foot either from
overstrain or some disease of the muscu-
lar structure. As the weight of the booy
constantly rests upon tho foot, there is
no opportunity for the bones to get bach
to their proper places.
The result is that these little bones
keep rubbing against each other, and
THE pain gets more and more severe.
Commonly the person afflicted in this
way thinks that he or she has rheuma-
tism and let's it go at that. Until re-
Gently the only remedy was a steel ssled
shoe that wGs clumsy and heavy. The
new device is interesting. 1t is en- ''in-
sole" curved to fit the foot, made of a
bent strip Of steel and acting as a spring.
It is covered either with leather or with
vulcanized rubber TO prevent rusting,
and, Leeding no fastening, but simply
to be placed in position, it cen be
changed from Il shoe to another at
will
In position it acts simply as a sup
port, literally holding up the homes and
giving them an opportunity to slip back
into their proper places. While any Gin
sole' of the approximate shape will
give relief, the best results are reached
only when one is especially made from
d cast or impression of the foot. A great
proportion Of the people troubled with
fiat feet come from the north Of Europe,
many of them from the lowlanGs of Ger
many. The Inhabitants Of the south or
Europe, strangely enough, are seldom
troubled with anything Of the sort.
Their insteps, especially in the case Of
women, are nearly always highly arched
and finely formed. New York TribGxe.
