SIMPLE WAYS TO PREVENT
COLD FEET IN WINTER

season Of the year. and they. hardy and
tough though they are, will take any and
all precautions to keep dry and VAIN.
IT one Is to be out OF doors much when
snow is on the ground, 1t is a wise precau-
ton to rub the soles and toes thoroughly
with turpentine before putting on stock
:ngs. The application is warming. and
its greasy properties help to prevent water
from entering the pores.
If this is done. and inner soles are used.
the chances OF being warm and comfort
able are greatly increase
4 combination Of silk and wool is also
desirable in effect, and one woman OF my
acquaintance sa 'es all Of her old silk
stockings for this purpose. When motor
ing or skating she wears a silk pair under
wool. and declares II the most comfortable
arrangement for the cold.
Rubbers or gum overshoes are extremely
uncomfortable articles for persons to wear
whose circulation Ia sluggish. And when
it becomes necessary to put them on the
feet for dryness. walking arctics, SO
called. are much better. These are rub
Der, lined and covered with a thin quality
of wooden. but the cloth is just enough
to keep the chill from the rubber and
make the feet more comfortable.
