AS TO WOMEN'S HIGH HEELS
All Toes but One If Their
Use Continues.

A London biologist Is quoted as
making the prediction that If women
keep on wearing high heels they will
find themselves eventually with only
one toe, says the New York Herald.
With the high heels now worn, he
says, three toes are sufficient for walk
ing; and as nature always gets rid of
that in the course of time women's
toes will be reduced to three, and per-
haps later to two, or even one.
The biologist is not mentioned by
name but apparently he accepts the
ory that most evolutionists have aban-
doned The present view of orthodox
biologists is that acquired character
istics are not inherited.
Even Bernard Shaw, who, venturing
into this controversy in Back to
Methuselah," argues with his usual
energy against the orthodox view ad-
mits that many generations of Chinese
women have bound their feet without
their part to be born with abnormally
small feet.
He also, descending the scale, con-
cedes that the clipped ears and docked
tails which fanciers have inflicted on
generations of dogs have not affected
the ears and tails of the dogs pup
pies. And descending still further. he
recalls the experiments of the biolo-
gist Weismann, who cut off the tails of
colony of mice, and the tails of the
children of the mice, and the tails of
the children of the children of the
mice, without finding that the tails of
the descendants We're any shorter than
those of their ancestors.
So the toes of coming generations
are probably safe regardless of the
fashion in women's footwear.

Handling mail isn't all Mr.. New
has to report to Uncle Sam about. He
also manages the biggest savings bank
in the world, making it possible for
everyone to have safe place to keep
his money. In 1922 the amount of
money deposited in these banks was
$14O,430, 1878. And through the
money order system which makes it
possible to send money safely through
the mails, more than $1,000, 100000

QUEER FACTS ABOUT DRESS
Cut and Make of Some of Our Com
mon Articles of Apparel
Explained.

We still have buttons. but no button
holes, on the cuffs of overcoats. They
were originally introduced in the Seven
teenth century, when coat cuffs were
intended to turn back.
The stripes down the sides of some
trousers are a survival from the time
when breeches were made so close in
fitting that they had to be buttoned on.
The buttons are forgotten, the stripes
alone remain, says Pearson's Weekly.
The swallowtail coat is the descend
ant of that which was buttoned back
to save the lining from getting dirty
by rubbing against the hide of horse
Side pockets on coats were the out
come of the slash made to permit the
projection of the sword handle.
The original reason for cutting away
the coat in front was to display fine
linen-the wearing of which was a sign
of wealth
Stockings We're once made from a
straight piece of material. The clocks
down the sides are the survival of the
seam that made a fit possible.
The legglngs worn today are "direct
descendants of the leather stockings
once worn by our ancestors.
Buttons were at one time regarded
as ornaments, and many people, be-
cause of this, refused to wear any
buttons but those which were abso-
lutely necessary to keep their clothes
together.
