"RINGS ON THEIR
HEELS" COMING

From the Chicago Tribune.
A modishly dressed woman walking
backward need cause no surprise a few
years hence. She may simply have lived
so closely in style that she has developed
the new heel" situated where her toes
ought to be.
The discovery of the new heel is that
of DIR. Max Strunsky of New York. He
blames 1t entirely on the high-heeled
shoes and finds women would rather con-
tinue to suffer with 1t than to use COM
mon sense shoes, which make the foot
look large.
1.-THE anterior arches become prominent
and bulge and are covered with calosi-
ties" he reports after his examinations
of the latest freak. mot only do the
arches perform, under pressure of the ad-
ditiona burden, the function of heels,
but they acquire all the characteristics
and every semblance of heels"
DIR. Strunsky says women with foot
complaint are found almost invariably to
have trouble with the anterior arch. He
finds the shoes throw the weight of the
body exactly where weight was never
intended to go.
"The heel is the strongest part of the
foot, and is constituted to carry the main
weight" he writes 1.-The high
shoes which women wear, however, prac-
tically compel them to walk on the heads
of their metatarsals. Thus every time
they take step they jam the metatarsal
heads on the ground"

The contest had one excellent effect.

and resolutely forbade himself the lux

But there was long pause before
he found his tongue again His voice
had lost its aggressiveness when he
said:

Some inner monitor told Philip thai
the man was talking on sound business

his voice. Apparently he had thrust
temptation aside, and was firmly re-
solved to be content with his 10 per

Hints For the
Household

Add borax or powdered soap to the
washing water for plates instead OF
soda. When washing glassware add
a little ammonia. This makes the
glass clear and easily polished.
To remove tar marks rub a little
butter on the spot and allow It to
stand till the tar Is softened, when Il
will wash out with warm water and
soap.
Dish mops may be kept odorless by
having solution of soda in a Jar
beside the sink, and placing the mops
in this when they are not in use.
Corks boiled for five minutes before
use In the case of bottled fruits, etc.
can be easily pressed in and then
make perfectly air tight shoppers.
MIX which has slightly turned
may be sweetened and rendered At
for use again by stirring in d little
soda.
