WATCH YOUR FEET
Important Matter Pertaining to
General Health. 4.
Experts Advise Walking "lndian Fash
ion" In Preference to the "Toeina
Out" Which Has Hitherto
Been Considered Proper.


tshort Talks on Health, by the United
States Public Health Service, Washing
ton, ID. CO
Well-directed feet are now consider
ed to be quite as important to generai
health as a well-poised head or an erect
carriage. Few people seem 20 realize
that many troublesome ailments are
caused by fat or weak feet and at
tribute the nervous depression, pain an
the legs and back and general fatigue
to some other cause, when the feet are
really at fault, says tie United States
public health service.
Actual flat foot" is much less COM
mon than is ordinarily thought. On
the other hand, weak foot" is very
common, and'if not remedled gradual
ly leads to fiat foot.
Recent Investigations have estab-
lished the fact that "toeing out" in
walking, or standing, puts an added
strain on the arch of TIE feet. Instead
of standing and walking with the feet
forming an angle of about 40 degrees,
as formerly advocated in military and
athletic manuals, experts now advo-
cate standing and walking with the
toes pointed straight forward. This
has been found to be of great assist
ance In remedying weak and fiat feet,
and constitutes what is known as
walking Indian fashion"
"Toe!ng straight" should be prac-
ticed for little while, and 1t will come
easy. Make two parallel lines on the
floor. about six incles apart, and walk
on them with the toe and heel touch
/ ing the outside of the line. Follow this
up with an exercise such as the fol-
| lowing: Stand with the feet parallel,
with about two inches between the.
/ feet and rise on tie toes anywhere
/ from 20 to 40 times each night ana
/ morning. In standing acquire the
/ habit of placing the feet few inches
( apart. with the same distance between
( heels and toes. Keep the body weight
! equally supported on both feet.
Do not make the mistake of believ-
ing that fiat feet can be cured by the
/ shoemaker, or by tie ordinary arch
that is sold in shoe stores. The con-
dition Is one that should be treated by
an experienced physician when 1t fails
! to respond to the measures outlined
| above.
1t is comparatively easy to remedy
tendency to weak or fiat feet in chill
dren by teaching them the proper
walking and standing posture. Par
erts would do well to teach their chill
dren to walk Indian fashion.
