SHOES FOR LONG TRAMPS
Highly Important Part Of Equipment
When Girl contemplates
"Roughing It."

Girls who have had little experience
in outdoor life often do some foolish
things when they begin to try this
form of enjoyment One way in which
many of them interfere with their own
comfort is by going on a tramp with
the wrong kind of shoes.
girl who has played tennis an6
found the soft. rubber soled shoes
comfortable will think that they will
surely help her to enjoy a tramp; but
they are the last thing to wear for a
long walk. as these girls have found
to their cost. They come home with
their feet aching and the calves Of the
legs tired out from the lack of the
spring that is given by heels Walk.
ing with fiat. heelless shoes on a
rough road is extremely trying. and
one can feel every stone through the
soft rubber soles; and these tired feet
and legs will feel even worse the next
day.
Quite as bad as the tennis shoes are
low shoes with thin soles and high
heels. These tire the feet and may
sprain the ankles. The only shoes
that are really satisfactory for rough
ing II" are strong high shoes with
thick soles. The strongest ankles need
support in rough walking. and II is
often wet in the woods. The girl who
has once tried the two ways of tramp
ing will never again be persuaded tc
wear low orsthin shoes.

CHILD'S HEAD

who had a rash ON its head when it

no good. In few days the head was
solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got a dollar bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, box of Cuticura Ointment,
and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and APP
piled the Cuticura Ointment We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
