Children's Feet Should Be
 Carefully Looked After

Did you ever see an N-ray picture of a child's foot. It very closely re- sembleS the hand. The bones of the toes are almost as long as the fingers. is that the foot is composed of bones. Now nature would not have made them that way if she had not meant them to be able to move. They are jointed just as the fingers. are. Can they move freely if incased in tight coverings2 Of course they cannot, you say

 of most people are today, deformed,
 bent out of shape. and big joints. The
 French call the toes the fingers of

 should remember. If they did a. lot of the foot trouble in later life
 would be prevented.
 If one could see everybody's bare feet they would be amazed at the de
 would cause a general outcry against the popular treatment of feet. The trouble begins in childhood in most cases. And sad to relate, it is almost i'm possible to- remedy this in afte1 years.
 Children's footgear should be ot very soft leather, and never cramI the foot in any way. If the child can't ''wiggle'' his toes in his shoes 1 do not let anything tempt you to buy them. An eminent specialist on this subject says: '"The clothing of the 1 feet should be loose. Every one knows that the feet are in most cases the worst ventilated part of the b6dy Tight shoes prevent good circulation | which, of course. leads to many trou- oles of the feet. Often other troubles | may be traced to the feet"

any hope, doctor?"
Elmer Hyatt, youth barely eight
cen, who is sentenced TO die in the
electric chair tomorrw night, yester-
day asked this question Of the
Protestant chaplain, the Rev. A. n
Petersen. in the death house at Sing

spared condemned prisoners solely on
account of their youth. Hyatt shot
and killed Policeman O'Brien in
Rochester.

Hyatt said the officer fired at him
first and he was so eager to escape
he fired back, hoping to injure but
not to XIII.
