The Prints

in themselves form an interest
ing group, representing the
work of the Eighteenth Cen
tury Venetian Masters such as
Longhi, Guardi and Canaletto.
Prices are so low that these
treasures of the past actually
cost less than furniture made
today, yet in them lies the per-
sonality, tie atmosphere, the
beauty and breeding, the in
tangible something that is
acquired only by living with
generations of gentlefolk.
Concerning the purchase OF
the Carminati collection by the
Wanamaker collector, one of
those in Italy who was much in
terested in the fate of the
treasures of the old Palace
wrote the following after the
Palazzo had been denuded and
its contents had started on their
long journey by land and sea;
December 1, 1920.
"-The Wdndmaker

is hung with five important

rooms will be hung the portraits
of Longhis-Pietro and Ales-

of Canaletto and Guardi, and
the prints that form so inter-

In this collection from the Palazzo Carminati lost chapter
of the Eighteenth Century Venetian Romance lies before

Twenty years ago in Venice,
the Counts of the Carminati
sold their Palace and every
thing that was in it. The furni-

The Business Skies of

oCCdNklly LII lS llINlIIltS
Every orderly Fahrenheit
thermometer records correctly
the temperature in which it is
placed.
Stock Exchange thermometers
of the large cities register daily
and hourly the moods of excit-
able spectators, which are
often as changeable as the
winds of ocean in January.
These simple facts are abso-
lutely accurate and should be
borne in mind when consider
ing other business conditions.
There is nothing radically
wrong, from the writer's out
look, with the mercantile or
manufacturing business of the
United States.
Most of the storekeepers
have not only unloaded their
high-cost stocks, but many re-
tail stores, factories and work
shops, hampered with old goods
out of fashion and out of sea-
son, have taken their losses and
turned unstable assets into
whatever cash they could get.
There is not only no danger
of prices going up again, but
concessions allowed by the
United States Government, and
gradual, though slow and fair,
reductions in wages with eco-
Monies in operating commerce
and business, will produce a
continuance in lowering selling
prices.
There is not one thing in
sight or in probability that can
legitimately cause panic.

FEET MOST ABUSED MEMBERS
According to English Writer, Only
About One Third of Humanity
Walk in Natural Manner.

The human foot Is one Of the most
beautiful and useful instruments ever
conceived, but, unfortunately, it is not
what a motorist calls "~foolproof.'
There is a great deal of misunjer-
standing about our feet. We treat them
outrageously, as either custom or fash
ion may dictate. AS n result about
o~ne-third Of the population is splay'
footed, another third walks like a hen
on hot cinders, and the remaining
third may be said TO walk fairly nat
ural.
The foot has a graceful arch run
ming fore and aft. VIZ take this longl-
tudinal arch, turn the toes outward
50 that the heels meet at an angle Of
45 degrees, and then put all our pres.
sure in a skew direction acros tie
arch. No railway engineer would
dream Of building a straight arch
bridge TO carry loads neither across
nor along the arch, but irregularly
askcw over It,,
We ought to walk With our great
toe pointed straight in the direction
Of progress. as Indian runners do, and
spring from the great toe" Instead,
most of us take on III a numbering
sort Of way from the bail of the greai
toe.
The arch Of the foot is supported
largely by the tendon which runs nm
der the foot Il the Ereat4foe itself. aud
this neglect Of use renders this fem
don weak and lax, and causes depres-
sion of the arch. The best care for
weak arch is the practice of raising
ones self upon the grent toe, that IS,
doing as a penalty exercise what YOU
should have done NIL along naturally.
r. YOU Viii try when walking to keep
the feet straight and 10 end each
stride with a little spring" off each
big toe alternately, YOU viii be re.
warded by finding that progress seems
easier. quicker and more %buoyant.-

Putting the Finishing Touches IN Hard
Surface Road.

1872
II the. road is dangerously narrow
now, as is the case where less than
eighteen feet is paved, what will It be
IN twenty years?
Eighteen feet should be the mini
num-, NOT the maximum, and on main
travelled roads a greater width will
seem narrow In twenty years. In Eng
land and France the roads are paved
clear to the fences or sides Of the
highways, unless a curb mud sidewalk
or bicycle path Is maintained between
the road and fence. Every foot IL
Kept In good condition. Good drainage
is as much a part Of the European
highways as is the case with our city
paved streets.
We are at the beginning of motor
transport. Unless we look ahead and
provide wider payements, we will find
the highways crowded and our pos
sible relief from railway congestion
annullcd. A few dollars saved nov
in narrowing u paved highways will
prove a short sighted policy.
We have already seen the folly of
constructing our canals too narrow
and locks o short. The great lakes
boats needed in Atlantic transport dur
ing the wan had TO he cut in two and
taken through the canals in pieces,
Ocean ships. cannot reach interior ports
until the canals and locks are en-
larged. This is a highway lesson TO
US, Look ~ the future.

PROPER WIDTH OF HIGHWAYS
Eighteen Feet Should Be the Mini
mum, Not the Maximum on Main
Travelled Roads,

Through all the years we have been
trying to maintain from forty to sixty
foot roads in a large percentage OF
our public highways when such a
width was wholly unnecessary. The
road sides have not been cared for
because they were waste land and
this lack of care has made them
spreaders OF weed seed and hay fever.
a narrower roadway, well kept, would
in most cases serve all the purposes
required. drainage and safety, says
the Successful Farming.
Now that the roads are to be hard
surfaced the tendency IS to go to the
other extreme in order to save taxes
for paving. We mist look ahead. If
we put down a paving that will last
fifteen or twenty years, we must esti-
mate If possible the amount and kind
OF traffic it Will bear at that time.
