Cause More Organic Diseases Among
Women Than Any Other Thing.

"High-heeled shoes are the cause
of more organic diseases among
women than the tightly laced corset
or any other one thing" said a large
manufactures not long ago. And
the vainest. which means the Draw
est when the adjective, Is applied to
womankind, must admit that It 10
true.
They throw the whole diaphragm
out OF line and place the foot In an
unnatural position, thus forcing the
knees and head to maintain the equi-
librium of the whole body. II. does
seem d, strange desire on the part OF
women thus to cripple themselves.
and yet they will persist In hoping
that the curved heels decrease the
size, of the foot and add an extra
inch to the stature.
A physician has said: 81 consider
the high-heeled shoe 10 now the
greatest contributing cause for the
necessity OF organic operations upon
women. II Dame Fashion does not
soon decree that high heels be dis
caried for the fiat foot OF the "suf-
fragette" the doctors Will not hold
themselves responsible for the health
of the women of to-day. and espec-
tally, tomorrow,
Another authority has remarked
that women may imagine that they
delude men Into thinking that their
height Is greater and their feet
smaller, but do not believe that
any man with sense enough to have
opinions Is ever deceived at all.
And when men realize how destruc-
tive to the health such exaggerated
heels are and how injurious to the
organs, they Will shun women who
wear them. particularly when they
are seeking wives"
Still more discouragfng! 1t seems
that woman must choose between
fashionable footgear and husband.
Yet they call them the weaker sex
even with such mighty matters rest
ing upon their decision.
Perhaps It Is true that hfgh-heelei
shoes are not SO healthful as they
might be but II seems hardly fair to
cast them into such utter oblivion.
Women seldom walk on them, and
for dancing they are perfectly con-
venient. But there are many young
girls and women who are much In
jured by the excessive, use of the
Louis XIV. heel. and they would find
that a one-lnch heel Is quite suffic-
lent to support their weight and at
the same time be becoming and con-
venient.
It's true fact that II Old Dams
Fashion decreed high heels out-of-
date and unattractive many femi-
nine martyrs would sigh with relief
and the uncomfortable slippers
would be consigned to the fireplace.

Market for old Horse shoes.

Old horseshoes find ready mar
ket in China One steamer alone
brought 800 tons of this iron from
Hamburg. Chinese iron dealers buy
the horseshoes and sell them to knlfe
and tool manufacturers all over the
province of Shantung. 1t Is claim
ed by the Chinese that the temper OF
this class of iron makes 1t the best
obtainable for knives and cutlery ana
also good for other tools. The rea-
son ascribed for this is that the con-
slant beating the shoes have received
under the feet of horses mas gwen
them a peculiar temper absolutely
unobtainable in any other way, and
that tools made from them are su-
perior to all others.
