daily occupation compels you to stand

recreation so that you may rest the
overstrained muscles Of the feet and

harmful to one who suffers from tired
feet. Concerts, lectures and g ride in
the open country will afford pleasant
changes and refresh both mind and
body. Select your shoes more care
fully, remembering that a healthy, well
formed foot. even Of ample proportions,
is to be preferred to a small foot de-
formed by a tight shoe. Be sure to
have shoes with the moderately low

II should be. A clever woman gives her
plan for being comfortable though

other, then by wearing the smaller

creased 2l9.245 in population since 1895. and de-
clared that many cities having less population
than this increase alone have far better postaI
facilities than Neu-York. That city has re-

increase in fits population the relief asked should
