sort of a woman whom anyone can love.
A shoe with the top stretched, showing tnat

A shoe with the sides of the sole turned up

She is the sort of a woman who loves firta-

A shoe with the heel run down on either

look out for. She is negligent in her habits

found that in nine out Of ten cases the hyster-

her shoes in this fashion.
These are a few of the most important rules
in determining the character of women, but
the phase upon which the foot authority
places the greatest emphasis is the tendency
toward Indebtedness. Nearly everyone is
troubled in this respect and the affection does
not bespeak any special trait OF character. But
the subsection of ones health and happiness
to the dictates of style is so common in Amer
lea that unless something is done to check 1t,
only a few years will elapse before women.

is possible, are in the fields and the woods.
The weight of public opinion was felt by
congress and an interest was aroused among
members who barely knew that there was
such an institution as the biological survey.
It might be asked what the biological sur
vey does to benefit the country. Instances OF
it's service are not difficult to find. The stock
raising interests of the western states suffer
losses-or rather have suffered until recently
to the amount of about $12, 600, 900 yearly
through the depredations of wild animals
wolves, coyotes and cougars.
Poison was the instrument employed to kill
the predatory animals. Strychnine was the
means of death and while 1t cost thousands
of dollars a year it was by no means effica-
cious. The stockmen complained that the
wolves bred in the forest reserves were in
a large measure responsible for the increase
in the numbers of the r~avening packs.
This argument is used to combat the forest
reserve plan of the government. Vernon w.
Bailey, of the biological survey, went west
and studied the wolf question. He found that
the wolves did not breed in the forest re-
serves in any numbers. He located their
breeding places and in his report told the
stockmen how to rid themselves of the pests
without the necessity of r~esorting to the
costly strychnine poisoning process. The re-
ports show that the wolf work Of the survey
already has saved the stockmen many times
the amount Of money that the government sup
plies yearly for the support Of the survey.
In the Humboldt valley of Nevada there was
a plague of field mice. An expert OF the bio
logical survey was sent to the scene OF trouble.
He found that in some sections OF the valley
the mice averaged 5000 to the acre, a number
that seems almost impossible, but the truth
Of the report is verified.
The mice were destroying the alfalfa which
is grown in the valley at a rate which made
it certain that within a short time the indus
try of alfalfa raising must disappear. The
crop of the year was cut short one-th1rd by
the ravages of the mice and a loss OF $4,000
was entailed.
When absolute ruin of the industry was con-
fronting the alfalfa ranch owners the work OF
the naturalists of the survey was begun and
it is now practically certain that the plague
of mice will disappear as did the plaques OF
Egypt at the word of Moses.
The survey was appealed to by the bureau

The Newer Way.

Many ideas in regard to women
have entirely changed, and among
the better and wiser changes is that
old thought that the women who
were given to good works must needs
be dowdy. 1t is ~undeniable thai

ness as a sort of hall mark of vir-
