spring from the great toe Instead most of us take off in numbering ,sor. of way from the ball of the great toe.
 The arch of the foot is supported largely by the tendon which runs un- der the foot to the great toe itself, and this neglect of use renders this tendon weak and lax, and causes de- pression of the arch. The best cure for weak arch is the practice of rais- ing ones-self upon the great toe, that is, doing as penalty exercise what you should have done all along nat urally. If you will try when walk : ing to keep the feet straight, and to the end of each stride with a little spring" off each big toe alternately you will be rewarded by finding that progress seems easier, quicker an6 more buoyant-London Daily News.

with being extravagant, blame him for

campaign. These detractors Of Mr..
Hays speak of him as n Y. NJ. G. A.
secretary or college cheer leader, rather
than a politician. A good many per-
sons close to Mr.. Harding share their
view Of Hays.
At the same time a drive from some
quarter has fallen upon the head of
TObe Hert. who Is rather more popu-
lar than Mr.. Hays with the regulars
and who was by many supposed to be
the most likely representative OF the
national committee in the cabinet. The
guess here is that Mr.. Hert has been
badly damaged.
In this correspondence it was pre-.
dicted several days ago that not all
these four politicians would be found
in the cabinet. The prediction still holds
good with greater force today.

Il would not say that these great

Slight Rally
I'm Market on
Improved Tone
Banking Figures Response
bic for Short Covering:
Trading Mainly Con-
fined to the Professionals

The stock market, though slightly
less than on the closing days Of last
week, remained mainly under the con-
troll of professional traders, and the
impulses to rally yesterday originated
from the favorable Interpretation
placed by spectators on the improv ed
banking positicN of New York, as re-
vealed by the Clearing House and Fed
eral Reserve Bank statements.
Yet, despite the fact that both rail-
road end industrial stocks revealed
moderate gains for the day, the change
reflected little more than covering
operations, The banking situation,
viewed nationally, revealed no great
change, and it was evident that the
Improvement locally was made partly
by shifting the burden to the interior.
The effort of bears to escape from
their speculative commitments by COW
ering was more emphatic in the grain
markets than at the Stock Exchange.
look, based partly on the announce
ment of new Instruments for financing
European trade, led to a sharp upward
movement, which reflected the efforts
of shorts to get out. Wheat quotations
at the close were Az to 5M cents
higher, and corn prices gained from 215
to 27s cents. The cotton market re-
sisted these influences and remained
quiet.
The rally in grain prices was helped
also by the rise in the European ex-
changes. Gaining u cent for the day,
cables on London closed at sS39oA !,
which is not only the highest quotation
attained thus far this year, but also
the peak attained since last summer.
French and Belgian francs shared the
rally, but marks and lire were prac-
tically unchanged There was no single
item in the quota of the days news to
explain the strength of sterling, which
is the result of broad movement to-
ward recovery. rejecting the improved
foreign trade position of Great Britain.
In the improved banking position
there was no reflex in the rate on call
funds at the Stock Exchange. Money
was offered at 7 per cent all through
the day at the loan desk on the floor,
elthough per cent was the outside
market rate

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Demand sterling mounted to new
high record for the year and to the
highest point reached since midsummer
last year in late trading yesterday,
when increased demand pushed the :ate
to $685.. Cables moved up to $3.90H
a net gain for the day of nearly u
cents.
There were no special news devel0p-
mertS to account for the strong tone,
but reports from abroad indicated i'm
proved market conditions over the
week end. French and Belgian francs
were also considerably stronger, but
lire and marks were virtually u4l-
changed.
