Foot Wear

Shoes are designed to protect the
foot, not to support 1t.
Most people wear shoes too tight;
nearly all women do.
Too lose shoe is better than TOO
tight one. but is. nevertheless, un-
desirable. The shoe should provide
room enough for the toes to work,
and should be so shaped as to per-
nit the foot to work without distor-
ton.
The best shoe is one which is
straight or practically straight on
the inside line. thus avoiding the
twisting out of the great toes, so
common in usual shoes. 1t should be
long enough to clear the toes, and
fit about the heel. over the instep,
and under the shank, closely enough
so that it will not slip In walking
Actual support by the shank un-
derneath is not needed by the nor
NAL foot, but many people are hap
pier with it, and a shank curved UP
to give a little lift does no harm.
High-heeled shoes are clumsy and
undesirable things to walk in, give
a bad posture and make corns, but
in themselves they do not cause fiat
foot. If one Is used to high heels,
it is unwise to change abruptly.
Shoes should be solid. The very
light soles of many women's shoes
are responsible for the concaVe sole
that gives anterior arch trouble, and
are at best an insufficient protection
to the foot.

Going A-FiShing

He was up in years, and the hair

1t is poor world If a man may not
go a-fish1ng now and then. He needs

cares and worries of the duties which
throng him. He needs to let his
tired shoulders rest, and his tired

We can all understand the mental

after surveying it carefully, one said

The Skin and What It Means to -
You; How to Keep 1t Young

Most people want beautiful skin,
but comparatively few realize that
the pimples and eruptions are only
indications of some internal disorder
or uneleanliness.
Primarily one should understand
what the skin is for. 1t is not
merely natures covering for the
bones, muscles and other tissues. 1t
is the organ Of touch it plays an
important part in regulating the heat
of the body; it constitutes an i'm
portant organ for eliminating certain
waste from the body.
The first essential in caring for
the skin is cleanliness. Battle fire.
quently and thoroughly, using any
standard brand of soap. Rub the
body vigorously, particularly any
part of it on which there are pina
pies. Rinse the soap off in fresh
water and dry.
In case the skin is hard or dry
after bathing, it may be advisable
to rub the skin with little olive
oil, cold cream, or other simple fat.
There Is no such thing as Skin
food" and the liberal use of creams
and eintments for this purpose is
both foolish and unwise, as the fat
tends to overload the fat glands in
the skin.

Care of the Scalp

1t is the scalp and not the hair
that must be treated.
Gray hair cannot be cured, that
is restored, except by dyes.
Badness cannot be cured, except
on rare occasions.
The scalp is just like the rest
of the skin on tahe body and should
be kept as clean as the fn face &c or bt tag
should be washed at least once each
week with a god tar, or sulphur
soap. This will not only help to
keep the scalp free from dandruff,
and permit of the free flow. of oil
to make the hair glossy. 1t is folly
to have the hair singled, as It is
entirely useless. So-called hair
foods cannot "nourish" the hair
If you want pretty hair, keep the
scalp clean and healthy, Wash the
head and hair clean and rinse out
all soap. Then dry thoroughly with
hot towel. If the hair should be-
apply mixture of Igrain. alcohol and
castor oil, about five teaspoonfu!s
of oil to the pint of alcohol. This
will restore the gloss to the hair
and also act as an excellent antisep-
tic for dandruff.
When the hair persists in falling
out and bald spots appear, the fault
is not always with the scalp, but
may be some remote underlying
cause: Consult a physician instead
of barber. as the falling hair may
be a symptom of some disease h

Often when the hair is falling out

Gray hair is caused by a loss Of
pigment, Or coloring matter, and
small air bubbles getting into the
hair and giving it the white appear
ance. There is no way of curing
this condition, although it may some
times be prevented by keeping. the
scalp healthy and clean. This is
not always possible, however, as

the tendency of the hair to become
gray.

do not, the breaking out may be
caused by some internal disorder,
possibly by an unbalanced diet.
1t will, therefore, be we'll to con-
suit physician In the hope that he
will be able to locate the trouble and
advise you.
The face should be washed at least
once each day in warm water and
a good quality of soap. AS a rule,
care should be taken to- avoid too
vigorous rubbing. After washing,
the skin should be thoroughly rinsed
in cold water and carefully dried.
Drying the skin will prevent chap
ping.
Many women prefer to clean the
skin of the face with cold cream,
rubbing this off with a towel or rag.
When this is done, the face should
always be washed afterwards in
warm water and soap, as outlined
above.
Experience has again and again
shown that cleanliness is, after all
the greatest single factor in pro-
ducing a beautiful skin. 1t is also
an excellent hygienic measure, and

Health Advice
Bunions

Bunions are enlarged joints, de-
formed, with tender calluses over
them, They can be cured by opera
ton, but the operation is a relative
iy serious one, involving reshaping
of the joint, and calling for special
skill. Even minor operations for
bun1ons, such as pairing calluses over
the Joint, are not free from real risk
Of injecting the "bursa" sac under
meath, serious matter.
Bunions start from tight, short or
other bad shoes, but proper shoes
special "splints" for bunions, but
they are not very satisfactory. Solid
soled soft shoes, broad enough, with
felt pad behind the sore place to
relieve it of pressure from the shoe,
give a good deal of relief.
Apart from these measures all that
can be done is an operation.
Corns and Cal1uses
CalluSes result from pressure; I'M
like corns, they have no core" They
are merely thickened skin.
Corns may be treated with salicylic
acid applications, but, owing to the
changed structure of the skin COM
posing them, they tend to reform
even if the pressure is relieved.
soft corns" between the toes are
of an entirely different nature. They
can be rendered less troublesome by
bathing the feet in alcohol or salt
water, Sometimes they demand a
small but delicate surgical operation
for removal.
In the treatment of corns and cal
fuses, good chiropodist will usually
obtain excellent results, but one
should make certain that the chirop-
odist understands his work and is
scrupulously clean. In old people, or
those whose circulation or general
strength is poor, and especially in
those with diabetes, such work
should be undertaken only with great
caution, and in all cases, if there is
any doubt about the patients con-
dition, the family doctor should be
consulted. The results of careless
ness and incompetence are often dis
aStrouS.
Excessive Sweating
Sweating may be due to poor
health, to nervousness, to the dis
turbance of circulation due to arch
troubles, or it may be simply per-
sona1 popularity. In some cases, de-
composition of the sweat leads to
troublesome odor, not rarely to much
reddening and skin Inflammation.
Bathing with medicated alcohol
and water, and the use of talcum or
alum talcum powder, give great re-
lief and may cure.
Formalin solutions, more effective,
should not be employed except under
medical supervision.
