Iron With Thar Feet.

One of the most curious sights which
! bebeld In Cairo was men ironing with
their feet, says writer In the Wide
World Magazine. They had not been
mixing their drinks. II Is simply q
custom Of the country. These men
were employed In the native tailoring
establishments. Except for a long
iron handle, the irons we're shaped like
the ordinary hatiron. only larger. A
solid block Of wood rested on the top
Of the iron, and on this the men placed
one foot, guiding the iron in the direc-
ton desired by means Of the handle.
For the sake of convenience the iron.
ing boards were raised only n few
inches above the ground. The men
ir0ned with great rapidity, and, how
ever strange the method may seem to
our ideas, Il certainly does the work
very well and expeditiOusly.

mysterious Navajo Indians that the
Navajo baby invariably has blue spot
at tho base of Its spine. The spot IL
sometimes as small rs dime and
sometimes as big AZ ones hand. 1t
closely resembles bruise. but 1t is
due entirely to an extraordinary pig
mentation. The spot may disappear
before the child Ii Ave years old. but
always returns later In life when this
Is the case. The scientists have come
to the conclusion that this spot Is proof
positive OF the Mong0lian origin of the
Navajo. And they also make the as-
