by wearing shoes shaped incorrectly.
Sensible shoes, with simple lines,

To have beautiful feet one must
learn TO walk correctly. Don't let
your ankle scrape the floor, or the
heels Of your shoes become run

shape.
Do not wear stockings so large
they wrinkle. The wrinkle causes
rubbing and that usually results in
ugly blisters or calous spots. Stock.

effect.
Stocking colored with anilins dyes
