Dr.. Brady's Health Talks
THE TRANSVERSE ARCH.

The shape of the foot OF an adult who
has never worn shoes is like an invert-
ed triangle with the apex cut off The
Inside line of the triangle is straight
and parallel with its fellow OF the other
foot. The triangle is cut off at the
heel The base of the triangle is the
line OF the toes. and this is the widcs,
part OF the foot. When Unrestricted
by combining shoes the transverse meas
urcment OF the foot straight across on
Inc level of the great toe Joint the
hunion JoinD is approximately half that
OF the length OF the foot But in
womcnS footgear particularly this
spread Of the toes is seriously OBJ
structed. as narrow. deformed foot is
considered fashionable
owing TO the narrow shoe and the
outward swing the shoemaker insists on
giving the sole, a strain Is put upon
the forward part of the foot Here Is
where the transverse arch Of the foot
lies-along the line of the great toe
and other toe joints. The arch. being
hampered by the narrow toe of the shoe
finally breaks down.
Mortons Neuralgia
One symptom of a nattened trans
verse arch is n sudden attack Of severe
pain in the joint of the second or third
toe. The sufferer is forced to remove
the shoe wherever she may happen to
be. This attack comes at any unexpcct-
ed time.
Another symptom is large, painful
callous under the ball of the foot 1t
must be remembered that the foot may
not look fiat or seem reformed
The wearing of pad OF thick felt
under the middle of the arch-say, UNI
der the heads of the second, third and
fourth tnrsal bones where they form
the joints with the toes--will give re-
lief This may be strapped in place
with adhesive plaster. or leather pad
may be inserted permanently in the
shoe. But the shoe must be orthopcdi-
cally correct II cure Is hoped for.

LAWYERS MAY VOLUNTEER
Young Graduates Would Give Their
Services 10 Those I'm Need.

J. e Tyler, Jr.. has mapped out a
plan whereby 1t will be arranged Ia
have corps Of young volunteer law
yers defend persons of limited means
IN all the Richmond courts. Having
received the approval OF President f.
w. Boatwright, of Richmond College
and the offer of assistance from mem
bers of the graduating class. 1t remains
only that some sort OF office be fur
nished. Mr.. Tyler said that he would
ask the Administrative Board to fur
nish such an office In the City Hall
There would be no other cost, and the
city would not be called on for funds
other than what would be necessary
TO equip an office for the use Of the
volunteer advocates.
Members of this years graduatinc
