FLAT FOOT.
A Painful Anliction Rcmcdied Only
by Wearing a Support.

Flat foot is n very common affiic-
ton. 1t is also one which Is fire.
quently overlooked by physicians,
says the Medical Brief.
The patient complains OF pain in
the heel, the ankle, the inner border
of the foot. great toe, the muscles OF
the calf, the knee or even the hip.
The busy practitioner notes these
symptoms in a hurried, casual way,
attributes them to rheumatism, pre-
salicylates and what not, and another
fiat footed individual plods his weary
way.
Increased deformlty Is added to
what may have been merely foot
strain in the first place. A durable
case has become we'll nigh incurable.
and the medical profession is again
Justly liable to we'll deserved censure.
Any factor which tends to dimin-
fish the muscular power Of the foot
may cause fat foot. A great increase
in the weight borne by the foot may
cause II.
This increase in weight may be ac-
tual, such as occurs In people who put
on a great deal Of fat, athletes, jump
ers especially. But by far the most
common cause is a cramping Of the
foot, brought about by improper
shoes.
For treatment OF this condition me-
chanical support 10 the deformed foot
IS practically all that is necessary.
This mechanical support is best af-
forded by means OF the footplate
made from highly tempered steel and
nodded upon a plaster cast OF the
foot.
The footplate should be worn as
long as II Is required. but no longer.
Additional wearing OF the plate be-
yond the time necessary, as indicated
by the symptoms, Is simply an addi-
tional cause Of harm. With the foot
plate a shoe should be worn fitting
the normal contour Of the foot.

No Place for Burglar.

With every big robbery reported
In hotels, furniture manufacturers
come to the front with the boast that,
wherever else the robber may have
hidden himself, it certainly wasn't un-
der the bed. because beus nowadays
are built too low for even the thin
nest of villains to hide under them.
"For many years losses of money
and jewelry," said a furniture manu-
facturer the other day, were attribut-
ed indirectly at least to the bed, which
was built high enough to afford pro-
lection to the thief. Finally, in order
TO save the good name of that neces-
sary piece Of furniture we decided TO
build ii so low that not even an infant
can crawl under it, thereby COM
pelling the enterprising burglar TO
seek a hiding place elsewhere. Phil

come one, for no matter how charm

and is trimmed with green velvet and
tiny ribbon pleating. but 1t can be
utilized for almost every seasonable
material. 1t is very charming in
pongees of all sorts and the material
is eminently fashionable, but It also
Is we'll suited TO the light weight

The waist is made with front, back
and sleeves. 1t is cut out at the
shoulders to form open V-shaped por-
tions. while ii is laid in pleats at tho
shoulders that provide becoming full

be made available for the still thin

as the lowered mousselines, spider

MEAT OR CEREALS
A Question of Interest TO All Careful
Persons.

Arguments on food are interest
ing. Many persons adopt a vegetar-
ian diet on the ground that they do
not like TO feel that life has been
taken TO feed them, nor do they
fancy the thought of eating dead
meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption vf partly cooked, starchy
oats ard wheat or white bread,
pastry, etc, produces serious bowel
troubles, because the bowel digestive
organs. (where starch is digested),
are overtaxed and the food ferments,
producing gas, and microbes gener-
ate in the decayed food, frequently
bringing on peritonitis and appendi-
citis.
Starchy food Is absolutely essen
tial to the human body. It's best
form is shown in the food Grape
Nuts" where the starch is changed
into a form Of sugar during the pro-
cess OF its manufacture. In this
way, the required food is presented
TO the system in a pre-digested form
and is Immediately made Inuo blood
and tissue, without taxing the diges-
tive organs.
A remarkable result In nourish-
ment is obtained; the person using
Grape-Nuts gains quickly in physical
and mental strength. Why in men,
tai! Because the food contains del
icate particles OF Phosphate of Pct
.sb obtained from the grains. and
this unites with the albumen of all
food and the combination Is what
nature uses to rebuild worn out cells
in the brain. This Is scientific fact
that can be easily proven by ten
days. use Of Grape-Nuts. There's
a Reason. Read The Road to
