COLD FEET.
This Trouble 10 Due 20 Detective Cir.
euiation 81 the Blood.


Many persons are seldom really
comfortable as regards their feet,
except perhaps in midsummer.
Their feet are ALWAYS cold, not only
during the day. but also al night.
especially when in bed. Associated
with this condition we often find
chilblains-not SO frequently in this
country a in England. yet often
enough 10 warrant a few words re-
garding their prevention and cure.
Persistently cold feet are due TO
defective circulation. There Is a
lack Of tone in the blood vessels or
4 weakness in the contractile force
Of the heart. which results in a semi
stagnation IN the outlying parts Of
the body. The sufferer from cold
feet usually has cold hands as well
and i in danger Of having his ears
frostbltten on a singing cold day if
he does not keep them well rubbed
or protected by ear mitts.
One who Is troubled with this
condition should have the feet well
protected hv stout shoes with thick
soles. which will keep out the mos
ture. and If the feet have been wet
there should be no DELAY in changing
shoes and stockings on returning
home. Overshoes NAV be worn on
cold and SNOWY DAYS. but rubbers
should be avoided. except the kind
that cover only the soles Of the
shoes. which are sometimes neces-
sary. since waterproof soles are IN
fortunately seldom found on the
ordinary shoe.
Better, however. than protecting
the feet b. extra covering is treat
ment directed 10 improving the To-
cal and general circulation. The
best local treatment is by means OF
water. Night and morning the feet
should be immersed in hot water
for a minute. then plunged into cold
water-the colder the better-kept
there while one counts ten slowly
and then rubbed briskly with a
coarse towel until they are thor
dry They should then be
stroked for a minute or two. with
the hands pressed firmly against the
skin, In an upward direction. This
treatment should be kept up for a
long time-a year or two If neces-
sary. until the tone Of the vessels
Is restored.
As the condition IS one Of faulty
general circulation, general treat
nent should also be instituted. In
Iced habitually cold feet and hands
constitute a danger signal. The suf-
are in a condition OF weak
resistance and are especially prone
o become consumptive. Fatty foods
ire usually required, especially but

With the news and gossip that came
from New York concerning the move
ments on the exchange In that city
the stock market yesterday was the
most comforting and reassuring to the
Richmond investors Of any days do
ings for some time past. It is be-
lieved here that the bears have run
their course and for. a good while yet
to come Will be harmless. They used
the strike news from the West for
all it was worth and then made the
most they could out OF the Hartman
Roosevelt affair, but so far this week
have failed to break tho market or
TO check the advance. All this makes
Richmond investors happy.
Tho market was strong all day yes
terday, with decided upward ten
dency, the initial quotations on the
leading stocks being the lowest Of the
day. Early advices from New York gave
some assurance that the statements Of
earnings Of the Union Pacific and the
Southern Pacific would DO the best ever
put out. This caused the investors
to take notice and do some business In
those stocks. When the statements
came Southern Pacific showed up splen-
didly and led men who have watched
that stock to predict that tho next
scml-annual dividend to be declared will
be per cent. The Union Pacific
statement was not as favorable as had
been expected, but 1t was good enough
to make that stock advance consd-
erably. The market closed strong,
all the leading stocks having scored
gains OF from to 4 points
