Mighty good looking outing hats for
autumn days IN the mountains are of
corduroy in pretty shapes and com
binations of color. A particularly good
looking hat of this description is of
tan colored corduroy faced with the
same material in brown, and there are
other equally attractive creations in
mouse gray. ivory white. dead black
and pale mole color. All OF these
shapes are soft, of course, so they can
be bent into all kinds of angles to suit

How to Avoid Having COrns

THERE Is so much said concerning
the cure of corns that the ounce
Of prevention" is frequently overlook
ed 1t is only partly true that corns
are caused from badly fitted shoes.
Americans have the best fitting foot
wear in the world and the worst corns.
European peasants have the worst
shoes in the world and hardly any
corns- II an Ill fitting shoe is to be
blamed for everything. what ought the
condition of the French or German
peasant to be who wears a Whitfield
out log of a shoe and stufs straw in
it to keep his feet warm?
1t has been found out that corns are
due primarily to accumulation of dead
skin upon the foot, setting up a
point OF contact and irritation. which
finally becomes inhamed and fire.
quently the Inflammation becomes
chronic. But it need never have start
ed. Dead skin accumulates because the
foot is shut off from air, and there
fore while more skin is being grown
underneath all the time. there IS no
process or removal from the outside
This has double effect. Not only does
the skin become thick, but also the
dry. scuffy skin does not allow the per
spiration to pass through. and this be-
ing stopped in its natural channels
adds to the Inflammation that has al
ready begun. With the skin of the foot
in this unhealthy condition the pres
sure OF the shoe readily sets up NOR
bid process. and the corn is under way,
says well known chiropodist.
Fortunately there is a simple method
for the prevention of corns. and If this
was used by mothers for their children
and carried out throughout life 1t
would almost drive the chiropodist out
of business. Coupled with the wear
| ing of airy shoes 1t would do so en-
| tirely This method OF prevention
consists OF rubbing the foot hard with
| a coarse towel after changing stock
| ings at the end of the day. The skin
| of the feet may be a little tender at
| first but this is the surest sign that
| the treatment is necessary. It win al
most entirely prevent the requirement
| Of corns and even to those who are af-
| flcted it Will be found of the greatest
| benefit, for it Will keep the pores OF
the skin of the foot well open and in
| this way relieve the congestion around
| the infiamed point.
| The simple device OF having two eye
!, let holes put in the shoe on the inner
| side of the arch of the foot for all shoes
except heavy footwear is also an aid
in this precaution. ANY cobbIer can
put them in. It is a great pity that
more care Is not taken of the feet. for
| many an illness has proved fatal which
| otherwise would not have been so but
for the fact that for many years the
| resisting power Of the constitution has
| been Slapped by the unceasing con-
seriousness of pain

were not harnpered around the ankles
to nearly the same extent as they have
been all usnmer. The gowns were
made to fall in natural unrestricted
folds from the waist, though without
any superfuous fullness. This is no
doubt the ideal at which smart dress
will arrive when it has shaken off the
eccentricities that seem inseparable
from every novel fashion.
The new figure is to be much in evil
dence this autumn. The idea OF it
seems to be to suggest a total abb
sence Of corsets, with the result that
the figure falls in masses Immediately

Rings TEAR STOCKINGS.

MANY women who wear silk stock
ings complain of small rips and
broken stitches and imagine that the
stockings are faulty Of make. but this
is not always the difficulty. The cause
Of the little break often comes from
running ones hand within the stock
ings while rings are on the fingers
These rings and the stones in them
catch the tiny threads and break them,

RULES
On PAVING
TAX CASE: {:
PAVING TAX BONDS NOT
HELD AS MUNICIPAL
INDEBTEDNESS

The following opinion just hand
ed down by Justice Hayes OF the
supreme Court is OF interest TO the
people OF Guthrie. In substance the
court declares the Is per cent pen
atty and the floating one per
cent unlawful The opinion also
holds that the attorney general OF
the state as bond commissioner is
not required to examine and certi-
fly street Improvement bonds issued
by a municipality. The case upon
which the opinion is based comes
from Lawton ana is styled the city
Of Lawton VS. Chas West.
An issue of $15G,010 street i'm.
proyement bonds which was under
written by q Syndicate of bankers
in New York. was held up pending
the supreme courts decision after
John f Dillon the noted attorney
and expert in municipal law had ad-
vised that the validity OF the bonds
be established under the Oklahoma
statute governing bond issues The
bonds are payable from assessments
levied npon the lots and tracts of
land benefited by the proposed i'm
proyements and the city Of Lawton
collects the assessments, pledging
the credit and revenues Of the city
for the purpose Of carrying oar the
stipulation.
An action in mandamus was
brought in the district court OF Ok
lahoma county to compel the attor-
nee general. as eX-oHicio bond com
missioner. to pass upon the issue.
The attorney general had refused to
make an examination on the ground
that the bonds are to be paid by
special assessments against the
property benefited by the improve
ments made with the funds procur-
ed from the sale of the securities
and are not the direct Obligation OF
the municipality. The wrly WAS de
MED in the district court and the
case was taken TO the supreme court
on appeal
In his opinion affirming the judg
ment of the lower court, Justice
HAYES points out that the bonds in
volyed in the ease are not public Sc
curities, for while they are Issued
by the authorized officers Of mum
icipality under the provisions Of the
law. they do not evidence an in
dehtedness or liability of the munIc-
ipal government, so provided by the
bonds themselves and the statue un-
der which they are issued.
