was considerably larger than the re-
stricted foot Of later times.
The masculine foot, forming an ap-
proximate average of four different
countries, was about twelve inches
long. This would require at least a
No. 10 shoe to cover 1t comfortably.
The average masculine foot today is
easily fitted with a No. S1a shoe and is
therefore not above ten and seven-six-
teenths inches. Now, by the old sculp-
tural rule Of proportion, man five
feet nine inches in height should have
foot eleven and one-half inches long,
or one-sixth his, height. 1t was Of no
great consequence what size sandal he
wore, but he would have required a
modern shoe of at least a No. 1912 for
a minimum fit or a No. II for real
comfort.
For women, allowing for the differ
ence in the relative size Of the sexes.
which was about the same then as
now, a woman OF five feet three inches

II Cost Her Rich Husband and Gave
London Guys Hospital.
That requests to individuals and to
public benevolences are frequently the
result of a mere within or. of caprice
has no better illustration perhaps than
the case of Thomas Guy. who built
and endowed the great Guys hospital
of London at a cost of 1898, 292 nearly
200 years ago.
Guy had maid servant of strictly
frugal habits, who made his wishes
her careful study. He resolved to
make her his wife. The necessary
preparations were made for the wed
ding, and among others many little re-
pairs were ordered by Mr.. Guy in and
about his house. The latter included
the laying of a new pavement oppo-
site the street door.
1t so happened that Sally, the bride
elect, observed piece Of pavement be-
You'd her masters house that required
mending, and Of her own accord she
gave orders to the workmen to do this.
This was done in the absence of Mr..
Guy, who on seeing more work done
than he had ordered was informed that
the additional work had been done by
the mistress orders. Thereupon. Guy
told Sally she had forgotten her posi-
ton and added: eff you take upon
yourself to order matters contrary to
my instructions before we are married
what will you not do after? l re-
nounce my matrimonial intentions to-
ward you"
SO Sally lost a rich and grouchy hus-
band and London gained noble insti-
tuition for the poor.

HEREDITY AND THE EYES.
Blue or Gray Eyed Parents Cannot
Have Brown Eyed Children.

Have Brown Eyed Children.
Since blue and probably gray eyed
parents have no brown pigment in the
outer surface of the iris they cannot
transmit brown to that portion of their
childrens eyes, This absent character
istic may be one that has been lost or
it may never have been acquired. 1t
is known in heredity language as re-
cessive. Hence, to repeat, two recess
slves produce in their offspring only
their recessive condition.
The hereditary behavior of brown eye
color, however, Is very different. In
brown eyes actual pigment occurs in
the iris. Here there is something ac
cumulated to hand on down to subse-
quent generations, The amount that
can be transmitted; however, depends
on ones own hereditary history as well
as that of ones consort. If both of
Smiths parents belong to brown eyed
strains, then Smith can have only
brown eyes. And since Smith has been
given, as it were, double dose Of
brown his eyes will be dark brown.
Smith will have, in his turn, only
brown eyed children, whatever may be
the color of his wife's eyes. In the Ian
guage of hereditary, Smiths brown eye
color dominates over blue or gray.
When Smiths brown eye color has
been derived from one parent only,
then his own eyes will tend to be light
er in color and only half Of his germ
cells will have the potentially for max
ing brown eyes. Hence, if he marries a
| blue or gray eyed wife, only half Of his
children will have brown eyes, and a
light brown, too, because Of two gen.
erations of dilution. In case Smiths
wife also has brown eyes derived from
one Of her parents only, then three out
of four Of their children will have
brown eyes, but only one Of the three
will get double dose Of brown; hence
Smiths brown eyed children will not
all transmit brown in the same degree.
Thus it is possible for brown eyed
j parent to have one-half or one-quarter
of his children blue or gray eyed. But
it is never possible for two blue OF
gray eyed parents to have brown eyed
