Your

Y OUR feet need as much attention
" as your hands, your complexion

too high heels should never be worn.
and low shoes should be avoided as far
a. possible.
OF course. for dancing, slippers are a
necessity, but wear the regular tang,
shoe and not the conventional French
slipper. As dainty as the crossed lac
ings seem. the narrow satin. ribbons DO
give q surprising amount of support TO
the ankle. The fact that the shoe d;
held firm gives much more grace to the
foot and removes the strain upon tho
muscles.
We all know the tax ii is upon our
muscles as well as our nerves to try
to walk In pumps that slip at the heel
To dance in the shoe that slips may
do real injury to the feet.
An ill-fitting shoe will also increase
any ankle trouble. so be careful thai
your exact number is always worn. II
possible. wear only one particular make
in which lis Is carried.
Find what height heel you can safely
wear without turning Your ankle. and
never permit your vanity to increass
the height a fraction. even for eyenins
shoes.
The ankle can be strengthened by Set
exercises and massage twice a day. A
little work in this direction will prove
more worth while than a dozen pairs
of shoes a year with patent protectors
on the heels.
Sometimes the ankle bone Is too small
for the size of the body. Then, OF
course, there is small possibility Of rem
edying the trouble beyond strengthen
ing the muscles This latter Is quite
essential.
An excellent ankle-strengthening ex-
ercise may be carried on at home. Sit
in chair of moderate height and rest
the toe of one foot, without a shoe, on
the floor with sufficient weight to pre-
vent its shifting while moving the ankle
muscles. Keep the knee as steady as
possible; then move the heel from side
to side with a rotary motion This Is
not as hard to do as 1t sounds.
II this exercise Is persisted in for five
minutes night and morning You viii
find that. after a few weeks. your ankles
will not be quite so tired after your
daily walk or on coming home from the
dance. A brisk rub with alcohol after
this exercise helps strengthen the tis-
sues, making for the eventual improve
ment of the muscle.

 "This regulation supersedes the de partments regulations included in Ar ticle S5 of the Customs Regulations and so much of Article S7 as may con aict with this order. Approved by E. r. Sweet, acting secretary"
 Advance sheets giving in brief the salient points of the recent act pro viding for American register of for eiGn built ships, have also been receiv ed at the local customs house.
