THROWING A SHOE

The custom of throwing shoe after
persons newly married. or going upon a
journey, or entering upon a situation. is
believed to be eff1cacious in bringing good
luck to them. It is a question whether it
was originally thrown for luck only, as
it is stated in the Bible that it was neces-
sary to receive a shoe when executing
contract, as an evidence or symbol Of
asserting or accepting dominion or own
>ership; giving back the shoe indicated
rejecting or resigning it. See passages
in Deut, XIV. and Ruth. Probably throwing
a shoe after a bride by her father or
guardian meant a remuneration of author

bridegroom was an omen that the author
ity was transferred to him. In connec-
ton with the shoe rice is often used new

HOW TO CAKE FOR TILE FEET.

Ill health is often caused by careless
ness about the feet. The largest pores
in the system are In the bottom of the
feet, and the most offensive matter is
discharged through the pores. The feet
and armpits should be washed every day
with pure water only, as from them an
offensive odor is emitted unless daily
bathing is practiced. The pores, instead
of being repellants, are absorbents, and
the fetid matter Is taken back into the
system, unless quickly removed from the
surface. Stockings should rot be worn
more than one or two days at time.
