in footwear among the French is diff
ferent from that of American shoes.
In fact, there were some women who
were so distressed at the shoes worn
by the actresses when they attended
that theater that it was all they could
do to command their limited French
to the extent of knowing what the
play was about. Good acting, per-
haps," commented one woman; but
such shoes!"
OF course, the French women think
rather differently of the shoes in ques-
tion and there are a very few Ameri-
can women who, having seen these
French shoes, feel inclined to believe
that were we to adopt the same style
of footgear the change would come as
a welcome relief. The American YER
doubtless be daintier. There is a fin
ish to the American shoes that is con-
tanned in no European-made foot
wear. Likewise. the American wom-
ans foot is rather more graceful and
shapely than is that of most French
women.
Perhaps it need not be explained
that the prevailing French shoe is a
round-toed model The heel is still
high, usually, but it is not what we
still call a French heel; at least it is
not of this type for street wear The
extremely pointed toe that we still
wear is no more in smart or popular
French footwear. If you remember
this long pointed toe with the curved
French heel prevailed for street, wear
some little while in Paris before it es-
tablished itself over here. Having
adopted it, we are apparently loathe
to give 1t up.
They say that the exigencies of the
war produced the change in French
shoe styles. Motors and taxis were no
more in evidence for the convenience
| of fashionable French women. They
still go afoot, If they do not go in pub
lie buses. Now, say what you will,
narrow pointed toes and high heels
were never designed for the comfort of
cially If that woman's shoes are snugly
fitted and if she have a healthy num-
Der of pounds to carry about For the
sake of comfort, it did seem necessary
to give up either the high heels or the
points. The high heels force the toes
into the narrow points. That does the
mischief. Needless to say the French
woman chose to give up the pointed
toes. She needed the extra height given
by the high heels; besides, the high
heel gave sInartneSs and trimness to
her appearance, and that was more i'm
portant than any added grace that
might have been added by the narrow
toe.
The result Is one that makes the foot

You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out DandruH

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all. of your dandruff will
be gone. and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dam
druff you may have
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft. and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

Weak, thin people-men women-are
nearly always nervous wrecks; thus con-
clusively proving that thinness, weakness,
debility and neurasthenia are almost in
variably due to nerve starvation. Feed
your nerves and all these symptoms due to
nerve starvation will disappear.
Eminent specialists state that the best
nerve food is an organic phosphate known
among druggists as Bitro- Phosphate, a five
grain tablet of which should be taken with
each meal Being a genuine nerve builder
and not a stimulant or habit forming drug.
Bitro- Phosphate can be safely taken by the
weakest and most delicate sufferer, and
thu results following its use are often
simply astonishing.

THIN, NERVOUS PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE

Weak, tired people regain strength and
vigor; thinness and angularity give way to

gain the pink glow of health. Bitro-Phos-
phate. the use of which is inexpensive. also
wonderfully promotes the assimilation OF

CAUTION Although Bitro- Phosphate is
unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,

HARRIET: When you go to q
party with another girl, and a boy asks
permission to escort you home, If you
are polite, you will say: Yes, 1 shall
be glad to go with you, but 1 came

one is taking her homer" The young
man should then learn whether Mary
Smith is provided with an escort, and
if not, he should at once include her
in his invitation, or see to it that some
other boy takes care of her. If Mary
does walk as far as her home with
you and your escort, both you and
the young man must make her feel
that she is not intruding, but that you
are glad to have her with you. II

row. Some of our own spring oxfords,
pointed and long as to toe and high as
to heel, have the effect of making our
feet look extremely long. The French
spring oxford has exactly the opposite
effect. The toes section need be only a
fraction of an inch longer than the toe
itself because it is shaped to fit the
toe!
We, most of us do not like these
French shoes. That is because we
have apparently not had enough of
the long-pointed toes. But sooner or
later we will be weary of the present
style, and we will long for something
that looks different Beyond a shadow
of a doubt it is the present French
shoe, in a slightly modified form, no
doubt, that will supply this need
and gain approval then.
