Hot Foot Bath
How should the foot bath be taken?
MISS X

How should the foot bath be taken?
MISS KING.
The water should be hot as can be
borne. Use 105 degrees to 115 degrees F..
The temperature Of the water can be grad
ually raised. The deeper the water the
greater the effect. The leg bath Is still
more efficient than the foot bath. but not
always so convenient as the hot foot bath,
which may be taken in bed. If necessary.
q fermentation may be applied to the feet,
but the effect is not good as that Of the
hot foot bath 1t is an excellent means of
relieving severe pain in the head and other
parts Of the body.

states do, and which do not?
M. z. w.
A.---Marriage licenses are res
quired in all the states and terri
tories except Alaska. California
and New Mexico require both
parties to appear and be, examined
under oath, or submit affidavit.
Dear Miss Grey: In answer
to "Peeved Wife" / want to
say that she Is one wife in a
hundred who can say that her
husband has money which he
cannot account for. l am and
l know many others whose
husband cannot even account
for the money they spend, so
"Peeved Wife" you should
only be glad that your hus-
band has, and is capable of
making extra money in these
strenuous financial times.
When we get only two
onions for five cents and nine
potatoes for 25 cents, l GER
tainly would be delighted il
my husband could bring home
extra money and can safely
say "Peeved Wife's" husband
is no boob" even though she
thinks herself one.
Anyone who has a system
for making extra money these
days is surely lucky, In my
estimation, so be calm and
don't let him get your goat.
