do much to strengthen the muscles
and tendons weakened by long lack

For the reason that II is not the
fashion at the present time for womeE
10 go barefoot is no reason why the
feet should be neglected. A little care
aud sensible shoes will do wonderful
work with any pair of tired, aching
feet, and all women should make il
q special point to give their feet some
sort OF treatment. The feet as fash
Toned by nature are beautiful, and
there is no reason why they should
not be kept so.
Bathing is one of the necessities and
too much emphasis cannot be placed
or a brisk rubbing and correct cut
ting Of the nails. Encased in stlff
leather for hours at time, the feet
suffer a constant suffOcation in the
pores. The result is that the ache,
beginning at the toe tips, spreads
throughout the entire body, causing
such suffering as to destroy the nerves
and put unsightly lines in the face.
An arched instep, straight toes that
have not been crumpled by TOO much
pressure, smooth skin free from cal
louses, a space between the great toe
and the one next TO 1t large enough to
be quite perceptible. and even cut toe
nails constitute beautiful feet.
Ingrowing nails, corns, fallen arch
and many other ailments OF the feet
are generally the result of careless
ness and can be avoided by rules that
are extremely simple. Sensible shoes
this does not mean unfeminine or
rnsightly ones-are requirements for
feet that never ache. Sensible shoes
to many women spell size. and too
large shoes are just as injurious a.
those that are TOO small, for they rub
the feet until they are blistered and
do not support the muscles in the
least. A sensible shoe for the aver
age wRnan is one that fits the foot
snugM without crowding the toes or
cramping the instep muscles. Despite
q popular opinion to the contrary,
they may be ever so dainty and pref
~.
A woman should never attempt to
wear a shoe that is too small for her.
Women who are compelled to be on
their feet the greater portion OF the
day should have two pairs of shoes
8t time anu wear tHeiu diAciHotci
each day. This gives each pair time
to thoroughly dry out, besides resting
the feet. There are no two pairs OF
shoes exactly alike: therefore, they
pinch in different places Besides,
worn thus, they last about twice as
long. So, IN the end, it is an econ
omy.
Especial care should be taken in
cutting the nails to follow the line OF
the cuticle under and at the sides OF
the nails. They should be trimmed
quite close with scissors or file, which
ever way the shape of the nail will
permit; then, after the feet have been
bathed, carefully rub away all little
parts of waste cuticle at the sides and
base of the nails. The toes them
selves should be rubbed. each one sep
arately. to bring about vigorous cir
culation, and thus keep the skin
smooth. The rubbing should be con-
