CARE OF THE FEET.

Women who are troubled with tender
feet should never indulge in the false
economy of wearing much darned
stockings. A chiropodist was once
heard to boast that darned stockings
were the mainstay of his business, and
certain it is that they are the cause of
much unnecessary pain. To prevent
ingrowing toe nails cut the nails down
the side, but straight across the top.
For those that have already started cut
