Some people are born late and never
quite contrive to catch up. they al
WAYS rise just little late IN the
morning, sigh over it, but are little
late to breakfast and to luncheon and
to dinner, and just little late in go
ing to bed again. Either they are not
aware of the existence of the clock, or
It represents a hopeless ideal, which
they admire afar off, but which they
long since gave up attempting TO
achieve. If by any chance they some
times manage to meet the stern neces-
sites of trains and other inconvenient
fixities, it is usually by the considerate
assistance of friends. Those people
are late to church as they are to ev-
erything else. We expect it and ad-
nit it and tolerate it and smile.
But there is a very different class
of persons, who are late when it suits
their own convenience and not other
wise. Those people are perfectly
aware of the nature of promptness
and the demands of time. If there is
anything to be gained by punctuality,
anything to be lost by hardness, If
good bargain may be missed or
valuable contract go to competitor,
they arrive with the exactness of the
clock. But when it is merely ques-
ton of others comfort it is another
matter. At a directors meeting, or
a dinner party, or funeral, these
persons of discriminating unpunctual-
ity always appear five or ten or fifteen
minutes after the appointed hour, and
a dozen or fifty of the more precise
are incommoded.
No doubt a good deal Of valuable
time is saved by the practice. On ev-
cry public occasion some one is always
late, and by being the last arrival you
avoid waiting and will gain a few
minutes that can be profitably employ
ed elsewhere. Ali the same, one OF
the worst objections to unpunctuality
is it's abominable selfishness. You are
piling up others waste minutes into
hours to effect small saving Of your
own.
The people of deliberate hardness
are always late to church. After ev-
eryone else is seated and the service
is well begun they walk in with lei
surely indifference and seem to think
they have honored God sufficiently by
coming at all.
Now, you are not obliged to go to
church at all. If you do not go, you
are the worst sufferer. But if you do
go, proper respect for the minister,
for God and for yourself requires that
you should be there and decently conf
posed when the services begins. Ex-
change.

Foolproof Feet.
London Daily News.


The human foot is one Of the most
beautiful and useful instruments ever
conceived, but, unfortunately, it is not
what motorist calls "foolproof."
There is a great deal of misunder-
standing about our feet. We treat
them outrageously, as either custom
or fashion may dictate. AS a result,
about one-third Of the population is
splayfooted, another third walks like
a hen on hot cinders, and the remain
ing third may be said to walk fairly
naturally.
The foot has graceful arch run
ming fore and aft. We take this long
itudinal arch, turn the toes outward
so that the heels meet at an angle of
As degrees, and then put all our pres
sure in skew direction across the
| arch. No railway engineer would
dream Of building a straight arch
bridge to carry loads neither across
nor along the arch but irregularly
askew overit.
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 atake off" in numbering
sort Of way from the ball of the great
toe.
The arch of the foot is supported
largely by the tendon which runs und-
er the foot to the great toe itself, and
this neglect Of use renders this tendon
weak and lax, and causes depression
Of the arch. The best care for weak
arch is the practise of raising ones
/ self upon the great toe, that is, doing
as penalty exercise what you should
have done all along naturally. If you
will try when walking to keep the feet
