For Abused Feet.

Wear the softest slipper always in
the house. To wear the street shoe
after you come inside your front door
is to imprison your foot much longer,
and the more it is exposed to the light
and air the healthier and more COM
Portable it will be. Patent feathers
are ruinous to the feet, especially
when they are built with high heels
and narrow toes. The feet perspire,
the heels throw the weight on the
toes, and the poor little things, all
huddled up in a bunch, are utterly
miserable and make you weak. Soak
your feet in cold water-not ice cold,
but coolish. Warm weather draws the
blood to the feet. You wish, to reduce
the Inflammation and fever by driving
it away. Chiropodists say there is
nothing like cold water for sore, tired
feet. Cold water besides, toughens
the skin rather than makes it softer.
After you have brushed your pedal eX-
tremities with a stiff flesh brush cos
moline then comes into play, to be we'll
rubbed into the collouses and joints.
With this sort of treatment your feet
are kept in such good condition that
they are a positive joy, and that, you
know. is worth living for.

Hot Water for Headache.

A medical authority advocates the
use of hot water in cases of headache,
claiming that"the ache almost always
yields to the simultaneous application
of the hot water to the feet and the
back of the neck.
A towel folded, dipped in hot water,
wrung out rapidly, and applied to the
stomach, acts like magic in cases of
collie.
There is nothing that so promptly
cuts short congestion of the lungs, sore
throat, or rheumatism, as hot water.
A towel folded several times, and
dipped in hot water, quickly wrung
out, and applied over the painful part
in toOthacke and neuralgia, will gener-
ally afford prompt relief.

stenography and bookkeeping.

AS summed up and expressed by
Miss Cleveland, the office woman is
now a strong factor as a business
getter'' and it is in this capacity that
most employers are looking for her.
The special training which is advised
by the exchange as the best prepara-
ton is the combination of bookkeeep-
ing and stenography. The call for the
two together not only is now MADE
most frequently but it usually comes
from those offices in which only one
woman is employed, which are deemed
the choice places in chances OF ad-
vancement. 1.-THE instances in which
positions of this kind" said Miss
Cleveland, have led directly TO g.
salary above that received by the
average woman are almost too numer-
Gus to remember.

Educated Girls Best Material.

The better class of inquiries in

Miss Cleveland. the manager, ARE
high schools girls who come either
from necessity or choice, teachers
who are anxious TO get into the

their own resources. The first thing
/ always ask them is what

YOU know, Miss Cleveland, | couldn't

answer, and this of course without
special training they are unable to get.
1t is this class, however, who if well
trained will best fill the demand as it
is now. Anybody with a. mind that is
simply quick can be made into a good
mechanical stenographer. But what is
wanted now is a much broader equip

only needs to take dictation, but she
needs TO be able to compose and edit

LINCOLN AND THE CHILDREN.

Senator Dubois delivered an address
at the Soldiers home In Boise, Idaho
recently. in which he related some per-
sonaI "reminiscences Of Lincoln, which
throw strong light upon the lovable
character Of the martyred president.

boIs my family lived almost directly
across the street from Mr.. Lincoln. He
had two sons, william and Thomas,
nlcknamed Tad who weere about the
same age as by brother. DIR. Jesse K,
and myself. We, with the other boys
OF the nelghborhood, used to gather on
Lincoln's corner in the summer even
lngs and play the usual games Of boys
until bedtime. Often Mr.. Lincoln
would romp with US. and we were per-
fectly safe in playing jokes on him.
There was one prank which never failed
to be great soprt for US.
THE front fence Of Mr.. Llncoln's
Springfield home. then and now. was
about three feet high and stood on a
brick wall, which was about fye feet
high. Almost directly in front OF the
steps leading up from the sidewalk to
the house was a tree planted by Mr..
Lincoln himself, which still stands
there. At that time II was about IS or
20 feet high.
Mr.. Lincoln. as recall, invariably
wore high hat. commonly called a
plug hat. During the time Of his
great debates with Douglas and just
preceding and after his nomination for
the presidency, Mr.. Lincoln was much
preoccupled In mind. When at home
he usually went up to the state house
after his evening meal 10 consult with
his party associates. He was quite
regular in his habits and usually came
back about $3.50 In the evening. His
habits were so well fixed that the boys
could calculate ON his movements, and
we tied a string from the tree to the
fence at just such a height as to strike
Mr.. Lincoln's plug hat about the CEN
ter. We hid ourselves behind the fence
