Shapely Feet

yVYELLsHAPED feet are much
M rarer to-day than they
w were In the days of tho
Romans and the Greeks. mainly
because we imprison them in un-
ventilated. sun-forbidding shoes In
stead Of weaving the sandal OF the
ancients. These gave the feet
ample light and air.
The feet, like that oth<t extreme
Of the body. the hair. need sun
light. Think how very little the
poor, imprisoned feet get. They
need air and yet how surprisingly
little Of that is given them!
II is certainly unfortunate that
the arbiters of fashion have not
seen fit to condemn modern shoes
In favor of the ancient sandal.
More harm is done to the foot by
the present,day footwear than is
done TO the hair by the unnatural
shapes into which It is curled and
twisted or TO the vital organs by
tight-ftting corsets.
Some years ago II did become
more or less OF fashion for chill
dren to wear sandals, but unfortu-
nately their elders were not wise
enough to follow their example.
But u you do not wear sandals
yourself there is no reason why
you shouldn't have your children
wear them. even in Winter, with
the wool stockings that are now 80
popular Remember. II is even
more important that the child's
feet be properly taken care Of than
the adults.
In early life the bones are
naturally soft and may be readily
forced out OF their normal shapes
by any considerable exterior pres
sure. For this reason II Is obvious
that to maintain the proper contour
OF the chfld's foot the sandal is in
every way much more satisfactory
than the shoe. The former permits
the foot to be fiat upon the ground
and spreads the toes loosely. while
the latter crowds the toes and COM
presses the whole foot in the most
vicious manner possible.
Moreover. adults can improve the
condition OF their feet by wearing
sandals In the house, even II the
prevailing fashion does not permit
OF their wearing them out Of doors.
To be thoroughly healthy the
foot must be kept scr,iplously
clean. SO much are they exposed
to the dust of the streets, espe-
cfaIly by those who wear low shoes,
even through the Winter, that they
need more than the perfunctory
share of the morning plunge or
shower. They should be bathed
every night in foot-tnb containing
very warm water. II the feet be
tender the water should contain
borax in the proportion of an ounce
to a gallon.
Warm salt water is also very
easeful for tired feet and is espe-
cially useful for reducing the con-
gestion in swollen feet. This pow
der, sprinkled into the water, af-
fords almost miraculous relief:
Borax (powdered), ounce; sea
salt, l. ounce; alum, " ounce. Use
ohe teaspoonful to a gallon Of
water.
For tired, swollen feet, too.
