PROPER CARE OF THE FEET.
Simple Treatment for Swelling, CAL
lous Spots and Ingrowing
Nails.

In no part Of the body is there more
absolutely unnecessary suffering
caused by abuse and neglect than In
the feet These faithful, long-tried
servants do not receive half the care
they need, says the Philadelphia Press.
Il inclined to swell after long stand
ing or afflicted with that mysterious
complaint called spring fever, they
should be given frequent hot baths,
with sea salt and borax dissolved in
the water, followed by thorough
massage with alcohol or bay rum.
When there are calloused spots-often
caused by ill-dtting shoes or a seam
in the hose-oliye oil or cold cream
rubbed in thoroughly at night viii
quickly soften them and aid in their
removal.
Night and morning dips in cold or
warm water, as is most convenient,
should never be omitted. and the daily
rubbing with cologne, bay rum OF all
cohol will keep them fit for any
amount Of tramping, provided, OF
course. that justice be done them in
the matter of shoes. These should be
neither too large nor too small; one is
as great an evil as the other They
should hold the feet firmly in a gentle
clasp that prevents rubbing or slip
ping anywhere
A medium heel is better than the
radically low one, which spreads the
foot and strains the arch of the instep.
An absurdly high heel is an iniquitous
abuse Of the foot. a proof of the ex-
tremest folly, and hourly invites 4
whole crop Of eyils-bunions, corns.
ingrowing nails-and manifold defor-
mites follow their use.
A frequent change Of shoe IS better
for both feet and Shoes and helps To
keep both in good condition 1t is a
bad habit to wear the same shoes in
doors as when walking and a demor-
alizing one to indulge in shapeless
house shoes, run down at the heel
Always for It's health and comfort ths
foot should be tidily and trinity shod.
A little pedicuring semiweekly after
a hot foot bath is just as important as
manicuring. All call0us spots should
be gently scraped This treatment to-
gether with protection Of the parts af-
fected by a chamois plaster having a
hole in the center, win in a short time
free the feet from these Affections.
The pain from an ingrowing toe nail
can be relieved by treating with a
mixture composed of one ounce Of
chloride of zinc and one drachm each
Of muriatic and nitric acids; mix them
thoroughly and apply one drop daily
to the afflicted toe

THE CENTURY IN 1905.
1t will be a Necessity In Every
Home Where People Think.

To read the plan of The Century for
the year 1905 is, with most persons, to
decide to own the magazine, for the list
of artists and writer's is more attractive
than ever before. Three serials arouse
special interest: Sandy" by Mrs. Alice
Hogan Rice, author of "Mrs. Wiggs of
the Cabbage Patch" and "Lovey Nary
a new novel from the fascinating pen
of Mrs. Humphrey Ward, and a novel,
Rose O the River" bylKate Douglass
Wiggin. There will be short stories,
too, from the worlds best and most pop
ular writer's of fiction; Rudyard Kip
ling, Anthony Hope, Jack London, Mar
ion Crawford, Ruth McEnery Stuart,
Owen Wister, Miriam Nicholson, Irving
Bachelor, Booth Harrington, and scores
Of others.
Beginning in the December issue are
Ambassador Whites "reminiscences of
his mission to Germany from 1897 to
1902, one of the most notable series of
memoirs recently published. During
1905 Charls F. Brush will write for The
Century of the invention and present
status of 'The Arc-Light;" George
Westinghouse, of "The Air-Brake:"
Nikola Tesla, of "The Transmission of
Power Frank ]. Sprague, of Electric
Traction" Melville E. Stone, manager
OF that great organization, the Associat-
ed Press, will describe it's origin and
methods, it's collection and distribution
OF news, it's operation in Europe, and
it's service in wartime. There will be
articles of general scientific interest
and Importance from Professor Henry
Fairfield Osborn, Gilbert H. Grosvenor,
Dp0fnccNu
N. Chapman, and Helen Keller. Ameri-
can architecture will be treated at
length, special papers covering "The
New Naval Academy" "The New Gus
tom-house in New York." "The New
Congressional Buildings" "The Capitol
Extension 1.-THE New National
Museum" and "The New York Public
Library" Another feature of the year
will be series of papers telling of his
toric homes in France. with illustra-
tions by Jules Guerin and Andre Cas-
taigne. And it is promised that the
East and it's interests, that field to
which all eyes are turning today. will
be treated in number of valuable and
important articles. The art features of
The Century have always been of not
able beauty-19O5 will advance the
standard.
The value Of The Century in any home
cannot be estimated. 1t means hours OF
entertainment. 1t means acquaintance
with the best of modern art.
1t means accurate and intimate
knowledge of all important investiga-
lions in science and of all reform move
ments and interests. 1t means friend
ship with the best writer's of the day.
1t means culture.
