When Buying Shoes.

While individual comfort must be
the determining factor in purchasing
shoes, yet there are a few general
rules of some aid in obtaining that
comfort.
The natural lines OF the foot are
graceful and beautiful, and this ma
tural shape should not be lost sight
of in selecting shoes. The large too
is usually Longer than the others,
and instead of running straight ahead,
as in the so-called anatomical" shoes,
slopes slightly. The shoes should
therefore be somewhat pointed, slant
ing from both sides toward the center,
with the inner slant very slight.
/ Time spent in the shop obtaining a
perfect fit in shoes is time well spent,
for discomfort always e lowered
efficiency and a degree of nervous
strain. Laced shoes can be more
readily adjusted and so are often pre-
ferred to the buttoned style. II the
buttons are properly placed when the
shoe is purchased, however, or after
it las been worn a few days, buttoned
shoes may be very satisfactory for
the normal individual.
The close fitting, extremely pointed
toed shoes with the absurd French
heels can not be too strongly con-
demned. Very high heels are especi-
ally harmful to the young, as they
throw the body out OF correct posi-
ton and hinder its proper develop
ment. The matter OF wearing low
shoes in cold weather should be noted
too. 1t is important that the feet
be kept warm and dry. as chilled feet
are frequently responsible for numer-
ills.
Experience with a large variety OF
materials. has shown leather to be
the best for all-arouud use. 1t is
tough, flexible, porous, reasonably
waterproof and permits a moderate
degree of ventilation. 1t is not ideal
because it retains heat and persplra-
ton to an undesirable degree, has an
unpleasant odor and cannot be kept
clean, to say nothing OF sterile. The
same pair of shoes should not be
worn constantly, since they do nol
become thoroughly aired and dried
out during the night 1t is more
economical to a two pairs Of shoes
for ordinary yes and change fire.
Quently.

A LETTER TO A SHOW GIRL

Mash notes to a show girl are a
part of the business, but it seldom
falls to any of them that they receive
as ludicrous a one as that written by
an Audubon swain to one of the mem
bers of the company that played in
Atlantic last week. The note was
written in pencil and the mispelled
words, coupled with the other fea-
lures of the epistle, make it well
worth printing.
For the sake of the family of the
man who wrote the note his name is
withheld, but the following, with the
sole exception of the commission of the
