FROM WOMANS
POINTOF VIEW

There is no hope of comfortable feet
till style in footwear changes-narrow
toes will never bring anything better than
deformed members and ugly. painful
nails. enlarged joints. and tender corns
of both varieties. A few women who de-
pend quite as much upon the beauty OF
their feet as beauty of face-dancers,
models. and opponents of beauty in gen.
eral-wear sensible foot coverings and
treat feet like the hands and neck and
ears.
A few frank chiropodists point the way
to foot comfort, knowing well that frank
ness Will not hurt their business the
least bit in the world. They tell us that
shoes should be made Of soft, pliahle
kid or leather, with soles broad and thick
enough for protection. They condemn the
box toe and the high heel and the narrow
ness which pinches the toes into a point
that destroys the shape of the nails and
throws the joints out OF position. Then
they advise pumIce stone or emery boards
or the handy little corn file TO Danish
hardened skin before it becomes the pain
full corn.
We continue. however. TO wear the mon-
strosIties which are thrust upon us In
the name OF shoes. We also continue to
patronize chiropodists and endure pain.
and most OF US are mortally ashamed of
our feet when they are not decked out in
pretty shoes and stockings. At best the
human foot does not make strong APP
peal to beauty lovers; at its worst 1t is
something to be concealed. Its best state
is only attained by great care, chief
OF which is the selection of coverings,
the shoes in which It Is obliged to sup
port and carry about considerable weight
under trying conditions. No wonder
pretty feet are as rare as fawless Jewels.
/ have seen women deliberately pur-
chase shoes two or three sizes too small
and have them broken in by friends who
wore them with comfort There had to
be considerable stretching done before
they were anything but torturing TO the
owners. Many a woman finds herself
glad to slip off one OF her dainty shoes
when she can do il unobseryed. and
often she will be forced to exert every
particle of her viii power to avoid limp
ing In public places. Some day there Il

A girl when she dreams about love and
marriage does not often include a Wild
over in her visions. She has a feeling
that with a widower she is second in his
affections-that some other woman has
been first. And this thought does not
appeal to most girls.
But. if one views the question practi-
cally. win not a widower make better
husband than the man whose first ven
ture It is on matrimonial seas?
A widower knows all the unexpected
catastrophes and Establishments of mar
ried life. He knows what it is to have
the cook leave unexpectedly, the roast
burn TO crisp. the dressmaker disap-
point, and a host of relations arrive
without announcement. He can bear
these things phIlosophically and resign
eddy. He knows their true relation to the
real things of life-that they are mole
Mills and not mountains-and he can
cheer HIS wife up under the deep. blue
cloud of dependency they may have
laid upon her.
Better yet, he knows il costs money
to run house and dress family, and
he has learned TO pay bills without muir

Of family life he is familiar with and

Pretty little coin bags may be made
from the tops of gloves when the hand

LITTLE PROBLEMS OF
LOVE AND MARRIAGE
Does the Widower or the Man Married for the Firs
Time Make the Better Husband?

I lily served. 1t takes several years to
break him into the fact that housekeep-
ing is trade, profession, and an art.
and that it is work OF the hardest kind
TO really master it.
Then, too, It goes hard with some men
to hand over large part OF their salary
to their wives for household expenses. It
doesn't seem possible it can cost so much
to run a house They could do it much
more economically they feel sure. The
widower has passed beyond all these
stages. He is broken TO double harness,
and there is not likely 10 be much fric-
ton.
But IL a woman is So sentimentaIly in
clIned that she is wondering all the time
If he is silently comparing her with No.
II: IL she is eating her heart out broodlng
over whether he loves her as much as
he did his first wife, or If he only married
her TO have a home or as an antidote
for IntoIerable loneliness. then all these
virtues viii not recompense her. Better
marry the bachelor and both get broken
to double harness together. no matter
how much straining, kicking over the
traces. and broken pieces of harness
there may be.
Nor would a woman be happy married
to a widower If he were eternally casting
up the virtues OF No. ! or telling how
much better his former wife managed
than did the present one, Such a man
would. of course, be odious and the life
of a woman married TO him most IN
happy.
There is a halo Of romance about the
bachelor that the widower. of course,
does not possess. And to some women
this means more than the thoughtfulness
and helpfulness Of experience. But the
woman who looks TO practical things is
apt TO find marriage with a widower
very happy. BARBARA BOYD.

Tribute to Chaplain Tribou.

Concerning the retirement OF Chaplain
David II. Tribou, OF the United States
navy, the Army and Nary Journal says:
In persistent and unselish devotion to the
moral and religious welfare Of the personnel
Of our navy it may be safely affirmed that he
has had no superior and few equals in the
corps of which he has been a part for more
than thirty eight years. He has long and
faithfully labored to promote the dignity aud
efficiency Of his corps, and in this he has had
the cordial support and sympathy of the
most of his brethren in the ministry.
man Of more than average ability, he has
frequently received recognition In several
fields of religious and literary activity.
Apart from his immediate professional
duties he has devoted much time and thought
to philanthropic studies and activities. He
has taken special interest in the promotion OF
prison reform, and in creating and fostering "a
more healthful moral sentiment ON the burn
ing question of divorce. He has represented
the navy department at eight of the annual
meetings of the National Prison association,
and Is one of the representatives of the
Methodist church on the Inter-Church con-
ference on marriage and divorce.
Wise in COUNSEL, Jealous and efficient in the
performance of duty, and genial in social in-
tercourse, Chaplain Tribou will be remem-
bered as one of the commanding personalities
OF the naval service, and will carry with him
into his retirement the cordial wishes Of thost
who know him best and appreciate the noble
qualities Of his head and heart.
