For Achino Feet

One of the best remedies for aching
OF the feet is resting the muscles In
the soles of the feet by changing the
shoes frequently. Every pair of shoes
is cut from a different last and the
tread will be varied with every chang
ing of the shoes. Bathing the feet
with either very hot or very cold wa
Ter, wiping them dry and then rub
bling them with spirits Of camphor will
cool the feet and remove the aching.
