The human body is an epitome in
nature of all mechanics, all hydraulics,
ali architecture, all machinery of every
kind. There are more than 80 me-
chanical movements known to mechan-
ics to-day, and all of these are but
notifications of those found in the
human body. Here are found all the
bars, levers, joints, pulleys, pumps,
pipes, wheels and axles, ball and socket
movements, beams, girders, trusses,
buffers, arches, columns, cables and
supports known to science. At every
point mans best mechanical work can
be shown to be but adaptations of proc
esses of the human body, revelation

THE scHooLoIRL.s BOOTS.
They should BE Brought with an Eye
to Comfort.

They Should BE Brought with an Eye
to Comfort.
The boot that is well fitted to the foot
is well made. There are just two kinds
of boots. The ready-made boot and the
boot that is made to order. Shown in
the shop windows are shoes all of the
same shape, yet no two persons have
feet alike, hence the more often foot
wear is made to order the better. The
6rst thing to do is to examine the foot
without q boot. If it is a natural foot,
and the second toe is longer than the
great one, it is possible to experience
some comfort in wearing a ready-made
boot, but the greatest care should be
taken to insure its fitting snugly to the
instep, and to see that the toes are in
their natural position.
The round-toed shoe is better than
either the pointed or the common
sense shoe.
The natural shape Of the foot is near
ly straight, with the second toe bit in
advance of the great one, and a round
ing decrease in the length of each of the
other three.
Now the fashion of the pointed toe,
with its right angles from the great
toe joint to the tip, is going to bring
about an abnormal position of the foot
by crowding the first two over and up
on the others, which soon distorts the
muscles and bones and causes great dis
comfort.
The round toe, which in the we'll
made boot follows closely the outline OF
the foot, is much more shapely to look
upon, and is really more sensible than
the so-called common-sense shoe. The
boot top should be high for wintry
weather and rainy days.
For walking and general wear the
dongola kid is the best, and next comes
the lightweight calf. 1t is we'll to have
the uppers of soft and less heavy
quality than the vamping. 1t makes
movement more easy and fits more per.
fectly.
Choose boot made wholly in one
leather rather than one with the patent
leather trimmings. The patent leather
| will wear out first and look untidy.
No boot is wearable that is not hand.
sewed.
Examine closely the stitching 20 see
that it joins we'll, and that the strip OF
leather up the back is straight.
The soles should be thick for street
and school wear, with inners of cork
SO as to do away as far as possible with
the rubber or overshoe. which at best
are most unwholcsome. They allow OF
no ventilation whatever, and bring
about process of cooking which. wher
the feet are not in motion to keep up the
circulation. proves thoroughly un
healthy. The heel should be rather
large, beginning at the end of the boot
and coming we'll under the foot. Tt

it should be frequently rubbed will
some soft boot cream: while polishe!
of all kinds should be abolished.-N. Y
