THE SPAS OF CALIFORNIA.
Matter of Economic Interest to Amer

Their Health.

The spas OF Europe are a vast source
OF profit to the countries in which they
are situated. In these Meccas of the
healthless are annually spent millions
upon millions of dollars which tend
to the enrichment, not only of land
lords and tradesmen, but, more or less,
of the whole resident population. 1t
is, therefore. says the San Francisco
Argonaut. matter not alone of med
ical but of economic interest that, in
the opinion OF DR.. Simon Baruch, a
distinguished practitioner in hydro
therapy, who is now within the Dor
ders of the state, there are springs in
California, the waters of which rival,
in curative powers, those of Baden
Baden, Bad-Nauheim, Carlsbad, Can
mes, and many other famous springs in
Europe" AS is well known. particu-
larly such affections as rheumatism,
govt and nervous disorders yield to ny.
drotherapic treatment; and while the
human mind is so constituted that re-
mote and expensive cures are more
highly considered than near and in
expensive ones, 1t is certainly to be
hoped that California springs Will
shortly have place In the cure Of
these and other diseases, such as. in
the opinion of DR.. Baruch they de-
serve to have.

HEELS HALF A YARD HIGH.
Root of the idea TO Which Women
Owe Many Foot Defor
mites.

Heels, it is said. owe their origin
to Persia, where they were introduced
upon sandals, in the shape Of blocks
of wood fixed underneath. such being
the root idea OF those deformities 20
which woman owes so many Of her
woes. In Persia, the first home of
the heel, however, these blocks of
wood were used simply to raise the
feet from the burning sands of that
country, and were about two inches
high.
With the Persian women these
blocks were vastly higher than those
affected by the men, their height be
ing from Is inches to 2 feet, thus be-
coming more of the nature of stills
than anything else Strangely
enough many years after a similar
fashion came into vogue in Venice,
but the motive in this case was com
ically different, for by its means ieal-
GUS husbands thought they would be
able to keep their wives at home.
The supports of such shoes in Venice
were called "Chapineys.' and to APP
pease the vanity of the ladies, and doubt
less also to sugar the pill, were made
highly ornate The height of these
chapineys determined the rank of the
wearer, an extra coating for the pill
the noblest danes being permitted to
wear them half yard or more high.
