ANS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR HOMEMAKERS
Your Health
Passing of the Corn
(By DIR. II. Ii. Bishop

Passing of the Corn
Corns are not as popular as they
were, because people are learning
wisdom in the selection of shoes
they have found by experience that
it is better to fit the shoes to the
feet than the feet to the shoes.
Still, despite waning popularity,
the corn crop is larger than you
would suspect. There are still peo-
pie who ignore the fact that corns
are warning signs hat the feet are
being i~ll-treated. Either tight shoes
which may in time deform the bones
of the foot, or loose shoes that per-
nit the feet to chafe, will result in
corns.
Loose, ill-fitting shoes cause nearly
as many corns as shoes that are too
tight.
The pressure of badly fitting shoes
or the chatting of the toes against
the leather when walking. creates a
hard layer of skin at the point of
irritation. In time this becomes a
cone shaped mass, the apex of the
cone pressing inward upon the SEN
sitive tissue beneath.
Broad-toed shoes, though not
necessarily square toed, usually will
remove the pressure if the corn is
on a toe.
T remove a corn. first soften it by
soaking the feet in very hot water
for twenty minutes. then dry and
apply the simple corn cure-ive
grains of salicylic acid dissolved in
half an ounce of flexible collodion,
painted on the corn only. This so
softens the corn that it may be
picked off. If it is necessary. the
treatment should be repeated daily.
Then see that there is no pressure
on the spot that will bring it back.
A corn or callous should never be
cut without first washing the hands
thoroughly, boiling or thoroughly
washing the razor with hot, soapy
water and alcohol. and painting the
skin over and all about the corn
area with tincture of iodine.

For trimmings ostrich might be
said to be in the lead, for 1t is shown
very extensively in willo'y effects and
in what milliners call "fancies."
Changeable ostrich is a novelty.
Back trimming is a decidedly new
feature. Big satin bows, colorful
embroidery and fancy feathers are
placed directly in the back.
OF course, the side trimming is
most general because it is most be-
coming. Nearly every woman
favors one side of her face and this
type of millinery co-operates to that

quently is permitted to dangle on
the brim. Sometimes feathers are
wound several times about the
crown before this is granted.
Burned peacock is a popular trim
ming; so are hand made silk and
metal cloth flowers. Gold and silver
ace are used to advantage to soften
the line Of the brim rs Is also the
becoming black Chantilly lace.
Some fur is seen in trimming. but
it is vet too early in the season to
say what part it will play in the
fashion drama.
But determine the line and type
of your frocks before o buy your
hats. Match your hat to your g
winter silhouette.

Peggy Learns Hard Lessons

Peggy faced her mother, souarely
meeting her eyes. For a moment
her pluck and defiance came back
In a sort of last stand.
Mother, you were out-dancing-
having a wonderful time. And then
you went to some inn afterward-
we tried to find you.
Here l was cooped up in the
house on a hot night-cramming for
exams-bored stiff. If a dance Is
good for you, why isn't it good for
me? IL a ride to an inn is right for
me?"

pondered her daughter and her prob

and drew her to a divan. They sat a
little apart. facing each other sober
ly.
Peggy, / have no apologies to
make for going to a dance. / don't
mean that / am trying to dodge
your charge Of showing you a bad
example. 1t is everybody's duty to
keep wholesomely young as long as
possible.
IF going do dances will help do it,
I'll go to dances. Only remember
this, Peggy: When you We're a six
months-old baby 1 ate bcefsteak with
benefit to myself. That doesn't
mean beefsteak would have been
good for you.
But I'm old enough now" broke
in Peggy rebelliously. Ito go to
dances-to enjoy myself"
Mrs. Dean waited until the mood
was spent.
That is not the question, child. 1
had you taught dancing that you
might enjoy yourself-at the proper
time. When 1t was my time to stay
at home and take care of you, I did
it. Dancing had to wait. Just now
your first duty is to school and
your development.
your playing truant tonight is
just as wrong as it would have beer
for me to go off and neglect you

yourself.
"One more thing. Peggy. You
like Bobby. Do o hope some day
to marry him. Or Go you only want
to be-his mistress?"
Peggy sprang to her feet, her
cheeks flaming, genuinely shocked.
'sIother!"
/ Mrs. Dean nodded.
Tn glad you're shocked, Peg.
1t shows me you're not altogether
lost to pure purposes and-common
