through. It would end in sheer exhaus- tion.
 And there are housewives who must surely walk over six miles a day in the course of their household duties around the house. yet they would have the greatest self pity if they were forced to ! walk half that distance outdoors. But 1t is really the indoor steps that are harmful. It ts the walking and stand ing, the standing and walking, that causes fallen arches and prolaxed foot muscles. The straight ahead walking II rightly done, is really beneficial and strengthens the feet rather than causing
 weakness. Moreover outdoor walking keeps you young in appearance and spirit. There is no other exercise like it for general toninga
 It is quite possible for you by fore thought to eliminate many of the steps that you take around your house The waiter, with his IS trips could not elim- mate any of them because the man who paid the tip for the dinner somehow felt more enjoyment in his dinner if he was aware of the fact that this cushion footed menial was silently plying his way back and forth from table to pam try and witchen to table. With the waiter it is distinctly part of the game, But with the housewife it is not so And there are two or three little devices that really do minimize the steps in house. work. If you get or unget your meals be sure and provide yourself with very large tray. If you live in a house dumb Waiter would be worth the price of installation. Some kind of table on wheels likewise is worth the price. And two or three large baskets with handles that can be swung over the arm should be in your equipment. As you work in one end of the house, place the things that must be taken into the other end of the house in this basket. Have an
 other similar basket to keep in the other end for things in this end. Or if you live in house have these baskets at the top and bottom of the stairs to make it easy to carry up and downstairs things that belong there.

THE HOUSEHOLD
HOW MANY STEPS?

It was estimated by the managers of one of the large city hotel restaurants q little while ago that in the serving of a fairly elaborate dinner waiter had to take on an average of IS trips from the table to the pantry or kitchen. Some of these trips involved walking as much as 200 feet, while the shortest trip was 150 feet. This manager went on in his estimation until he came to the conclu- sion that an average waiter on an av- craze day had to walk on an average of more than six miles. Strangely enough the waiter could keep up his six miles a day indefinitely. In the atmos- phere of jazz and tobacco smoke in the dining room and cooking, smoke and heat and the noise of dishes and pots and pans he could keep up. But if that same waiter should on vacation un- dertake to walk six miles through the open country on smooth dirt road and stimulated by fresh country air, he would probably balk before he was half
