MiIady's Mirror.

Feet. their care and comfort, are sub
iacts not generally associated with the
mirror on my .ady's dressing table, yet
they play an important part IN the lace
so truthtu.y rejected there.
No woman can have sweetness or ex-
preston and serenity of temper wnen her
feet are making every movement MIN
ute Of keen p.i in. There is nothing SO
conducive to deep frown lines and sharp
words as aching feet. Not only do they
spoil all pleasure, but they prec ude all
possibility of the beauty which comes OF
ease and vivaclty.
If the feet have become tender through
a pair of ill-fitting shoes and corns, Dun-
ions or other form of irritation his re-
suited, soak them in alum water. Tnls
hardens the skin and draws out imam
nation quickly. Take the alum cure at
least twice week until rehet IS oo-
tanned.
Tender feet are made more sensitive by
rea son of the dyes used in cOlored stock
ings In most cases these dyes are pol
sonous, and when the pores OF the SKIN
are opened by perspiration they absorb
these po.sons. For this reason white
stockings are best and the popularity OF
white shoes and stockings has done much
toward benefiting the general condition
of feet If al. white stockings cannot be
worn. see to it that the heels and toes
are white. as it is here that the dyes are
most inclined to grind into the skin.
One of the simplest and likewise most
effective treatments for tender feet Is a
cold water plunge. AT first contact the
shock of placing the feet in a cold bath
sends a chill through the body. but this
is the sensa ton of a second. In twink
ling it IS succeeded by a warm glow and
a soothing sensation stea-s overs the en-
tire body.

INDEFINITE BARGAINS.
BY RUTH CAMERON.

A friend of mine who lives, near the
high school has taken a little country
girl into her family for the school term
This girl is going to help her with the
children and the sewing in return for her
board and room.
My friend was telling me about this ar
rangement. How. much time will she
give you?" l asked. "Oh. 1 don't know
said the lady airly. II suppose she will
help me whichever 1 need her.
Can you see trouble ahead for those
two?"
/ can.
If there Is anything on earth that
standings any more surely than an in
definite arrangement like that, an ex-
change in which it is not nominated in
the bond exactly what each party gets,
have yet TO lind it.
Usually one party is badly cheated, and
invariably both parties think they are.
Two cd neignbOrs of mine used to be
very dear friends until one summer they

OF course, every one who enters into

thinks that between friends there is no
need of a deunite contract. In reality.
the closer the friendship, the greater the
need or deEinltenesS, because the tie is
too precious to risk breaking.
. If you are going to maze some eX

Believe me, you vii. run far less risk

The Cold Plunge.

The principle OF the cold plunge is that
it hardens and tones the tissues Of the
skin. and certainly after the bath. when
the feet have been vigorously dried with
a Turkish towel and busted with pure
talcun powder. the muscles Of the body
are rested and relaxed.
Those afflicted with cold feet need not
fear the effect of the plunge. A splendid
remedy for chronicaily co d feet is to rub
them every morning with handfuls of wet
salt until the skin COWS. Rinse on the
salt with cold water and dry rapidly with

sultry nights it is sometimes impossible
to sleep. \ sure cure for sleeplessness is
in the hot-water bag. Fill the bag with
cool water, place beneath the pillow slip
so that the cool side may rest on the
base of the neck. This has been tried
successfully when all other methods

rich lining is tricked out with cunning
shirred pockets and long sar.ands of silk

pensive evening wraps for grown women.
Party coats for small girls are in cape
shape. and as a rule, are made of the
softest broadcloth in some delicate shade
lined with supple satin and hanging in
full. graceful folds from a shallow yoke
or directly from the shoulders
Most of the models have a satin hood
that may really be pulled up over the
head if needed. and big soft cords and
tassels fasten the cape at the throat. In
matter of detail there is infinite variety,
but an extremely dainty little garment,
for example, was of the palest of blue
cloth. satin, cord velvet collar and all

charming.
Bright red is always a favorite tone
for children's coats. and. provided the

nothing is more piquant and practical for
