the president Of the United Womens
Clubs of the world
Besides the looks of ones feet, there
is the one more important question of
the feeling of them.
People who can be amiable when
their feet are tired and uncomfortable
deserve halos. Probably if we knew it.
most OF the bad temper that shows it
self, especially in crowds at the ferries
and stations and at theaters. is due to
people having to hurry along on aching
feet.
If you want to preserve your beauty.
your looks and your disposition keep
your feet comfortable
White Stockings. ,-. ...
The white stocking craze has done a
lot to ease aching feet, and there's
nothing so comfortable as a nice. clean
pair OF white stockings and a fresh pair
Of shoes and slippers. Stockings ought
really to be changed twice day. and
the girl who hates to darn will find that
this saves her a great deal of work.
Changing stockings, like changing your
shoes, brings the wear and the rub on
another part of the foot, and conse-
clcntly saves the stockings.
My hobby 8 shoes and stockings. and
as long as my feet look all right | feel
that I can face the world with calm
ness
II you want to know how sensitive
people are about the way they are shod.
sit in street car and gaze fixedly at
the feet of the woman opposite you.
She will get so uncomfortable that ten
to one you can make her get up and
leave the car because she is quite sure
she has a hole in her stocking or some
thing is the matter with her shoes. The
same applies to men, though on the
whole, men are more particular about
their shoes than women are. and Won
seldom see man in very moderate cir
cumstances whose shoes aren't nicely
polished while lots of women overlook
this part of their toilette.
If YOU are a dancer or have to stand
on your feet for a long time every day.
YOU must realize how important it is to
keep them in good condition. They
ought TO be bathed every day. and II
you come home tired and want to fresh

water with a handful of salt In it will
do you more good than a nap. Many
peoples feet hurt them because they
are never properly dried If the stock
ing is put on While the foot is stin
damp. it is likely to make the feet very
tender, and unless one takes the trouble
to dry the toes separately, the best
thing to do is TO dust the foot with
foot powder or talcum powder.
