Monticello is peculiarly fitted to be
a Jefferson shrine because he himself
planned and built the mansion. Its
location is about three miles from
Charlotte, the seat of the University
of Virginia, which Jefferson founded.
On every side from the spot which
Jefferson selected as the site of his
home stretch great reaches of some
of the most beautiful country in the
United States.
The site OF Jefferson's birthplace,
Shadwell, is only n short distance
away. He himself selected the site
for his mountain home. drew the de-
signs and plans for the house, select
ed the stone and timber used in the
structure, looked after the construc-
ton of the brick and he nails made
by his own servants, devised advanced
and ingenious c~ontrivances for COM
fort and convenience. designed the
decoration of the interior and per-
sonally selected the furnif hlngs Ind
ornaments, and not only planned but
gave personal supervision to the lay
Ing out of the various buildings on
the estate, the gardens, the walks and
the roadways. Work was begun on
the house in 1894.
When Shadwell was destroyed by
fire In 1910, Monticello was far enough
completed for the family to move in.
Two years later he brought his bride,
Martha Wayles SHELTON, there. al

was still unfinished. Indeed. through
out his life, Monticello continued in

Jefferson NJ. Levy, present owner of
Monticello, whose family has held title

modore Uriah p. Levy of the United
States navy, bought II in 1888, seven
years after Jefferson's death, has al
ways been an ardent admirer of the
author of the Declaration of I~ndepend-

fuenced him to enter into an agree
ment with the Memorial Foundation.
Monticello was Jefferson's home
from ITO till his death, July 4, 1896,
and therefore famous. But with its
passage out of the possession of the
Jefferson family n little more than n
century ago, 1t was all but forgotten
by the public; not completely, how
ever, because in 1865 the legality of
the will of Commodore Uriah Phillips
Levy, leaving the estate to the federal
or to he state government for use as
an agricultural college, or to Hebrew
charity organizations. was contested
in the courts by his family. In 1912 a
bill was introduced in congress by
Representative Martin W. Littleton
providing for the purchase of Month
cello by the nation. Although the
time was propitious because the Dem
ocratic party had Just returned to
power, the bill vas not passed, nor
was it in 1917 when II was revived.

Causes Of Painful Feet

The most common cause of painful
feet is arch strain. The term "brok-
en- arches" is misleading, because in
these cases there Is nothing broken,
but simply a strain on weakened
muscles and ligaments. When the
strain is on the arch under the in
ner border Of the foot, there is pain
and tenderness at the point of this
arch and sometimes pain and aching
along the muscles up the inner side
and back Of the leg.
The transverse arch across the
cation for trouble and manifests it.
self by pain and aching under the
ball of the foot, burning and tingling
of the toes and callouses under the
foot just back of the toes.
Both of these conditions may be
aggravated by shortening Of the
heel cords or Achilles tendons, which
may also cause pulling sensation
back of the knees and in the calf
| muscles.
Not All "Flat Feet"
1t is a common error to call all
sorts of foot trouble "flat feet or
broken arches," which on careful
examination, may be some entirely
different condition.
1t seems to be the general opinion
that all arch conditions should be
treated with arch supports. The
ordinary arch support simply gives
temporary relief, making the already
weakened muscles weaker. They do
not cure the conditions.
One of the common complaints is
of painful heel This may be due
to various causes such as strain
on the ligaments attached to the
heel bone, or it may be an inflamma-
ton of the covering of the bone.
One of the rather frequent and dis
abling causes of the painful heels is
bony growths or spurs which grow
from the lower border of the heel
bone. giving the sensation of diffuse
tenderness under the heel or of
Walking Oh some sharp OBJECT.
Many Bones In Foot
The feet are made up of number
of small bones. The joints between
these bones may be affected with
rheumatic conditions the same as
other joints in the body. This may
accompany an arch strain and one
aggravate the other.
The tendons or cords of the feet
and ankle move inside a covering
or sheath. These sometimes become
inflamed, due to constant pressure
or rubbing, or due to some Infection
at some distant point in the body
These become very tender and make
any movement of the affected ten
dons very painful.
The bones themselves may be dis
