WATCH THE CHILDRENS'
SHOES AND FEET

TINE foot, like all other parts Of the
4 human body, is beautiful in its
natural state In it's unspoiled beauty
It is seen in young children and in
members of the few tribes and races
which still go barefoot or wear only
sandals to protect the feet. The nat
ural foot is the one seen in the master
pieces of the painter and the sculp-
tor. It is as beautiful as the hand and
as expressive of personality.
The normal human foot is triangular
in outline, with the point of the tri-
angle at the heel. The toes are slight
ly separated and the bones of the foot
are so constructed that they form a
natural arch for supporting the body.
The ball of the foot, which is intended
to bear the body-weight, is covered
with an extra thick layer of skin. as
are also the back part of the heel and
the under portions of the toes, which
grasp the ground in walking.
The average human foot. however,
bears little resemblance 20 the normal
foot. The toes are cramped, over
Tapped and bent: bunions distort the
joints; corns grow on the toes; nails
are thickened, ingrown or bent under
the ends of the toes; calluses disfig-
ure various parts of the foot; broken
arches add flat foot" to the other de-
formities.
We pity the Chinese women with
their bound lilly feet" but we extend
no sympathy to the American girl with
her crippled, disabled feet on which
she hobbies about in shop, factory.
Office or kiteden. The Chinese do not
expect the possessor Of lilly feet to
do any work or much walking but we
demand that our women retain their
places in business and Industrial life
in spite of the physical disability of
crippled feet.
Modern shoes with their high heels
and pointed toes are responsible for
this universal foot deformity. Such
shoes prevent the spread and spring
of the arch and ball of the foot which
are naturally part of every step.
The muscles governing this spread
and spring, from lack Of use become
shrunken and lose their strength This
shrinking of the muscles of the foot
gradually extends to the muscles of
the ankles, the calves of the legs,
the knees and the thighs. often to
the muscles of the lower part of the
trunk. The discomfort felt when walk
ing in tennis shoes or very low-heeled
shoes is due to the fact that long In.
active muscles are called into action.
Pains in the knees and thighs, which
the sufferer believes is rheumatism"
are often caused by "tiat FOOT" or
broken arches.

The Cost of the Probes.

A question that has been often
asked since the beginning of the pres
ent session of Congress has just been
answered by the chairman of the SEN
ate committee on appropriations, who
has put into the Congressional Record
a statement showing that the cost of
nine investigations by Senate commit
tees has been more than 100000.
while the total cost to July 1 of these
and other inquiries will be about
s325,000. All these expenses are paid
out Of the contingent fund of the Sen.
ate. which has recently been exhaust
ed. 1t is moved to appropriate an ad-
ditional 100000 to carry the commit
tees along, if not to the finish of the
inquiries, some of which seem TO be
endless, to their seasonal close.
Various views will be taken of this
expenditure. Some will hold that it is
justified. Some will regard it as un-
warranted. Probably if at the begin
ming of the session a member Of the
Senate had proposed to appropriate a
THRU VI d HllliiOIl dollars IOF PROBES
the proposition would have been re-
jected promptly and decisively. But
having started on the probing busi-
ness the Senate, it would seem, has
been unable to stop. Granting funds
for one inquiry. it could hardly deny
them for another.
A business organization would
doubtless have gone about the matter
Of finding out the facts in a more
economic spirit. But this is not cor
poration money that is being spent. 1t
is just peoples money" OF course,
it has had to come from somewhere.
1t has come actually from the Treas
ury, which means, in turn, from taxes.
II better things come about from this
multitude of probings it will have
been money well spent, though per-
haps there has been some waste here
and there.

general peace is menaced from any
cause. 1t has already done so on one
occasion, having then restored order
and retired in favor Of an established
insular government.
The United States has no concern
in the domestic politics of Cuba. 1t
does not seek or propose to intervene
between parties engaged in a purely
political contest. But it is concerned
greatly in the maintenance Of peace
as between militant factions. The
overthrow Of the Cuban administra-
ton by force of arms would precipi-
tate conditions hurtfuI to American
interests.
The Zayas government having
sought aid from the United States,
this government could do no less than
accede. To refuse the request would
be, in effect, to support the revolution.
The United States must recognize the
established administration as a gov
ernment by right as we'll as by fact.
II in orderly procedure OF election a
revolution is effected by the custer of
one party and the accession of an
other the new administration becomes
the government by right and fact, and
receives from the United States con-
sideration and protection, as far as
this government can protect.
In the case of Mexico there is no
such relationship, but it is, neverthe-
less, to the interest of the United
States, as well as within it's rights, to
supply the Obregon government with
munitions Of war to meet a revolt
which sought the overturn of the ad-
ministration by violence, and which
threatened to recreate the dangerous
turmoil Of a few years ago in which
American interests suffered heavily.

The advocates of this method have
never satisfactorily answered the
question as to the next step u
the parties in interest, or either OF
them, should refuse to accept the
verdict of compulsory arbitration.
Just because the arbitration was man
datory would result in many refusal
to abide by the result. j. is against
the nature of free men and women
to accept Involuntary servitude. Pub
lie opinion, strong as it usually is IN
its application and result. could not
compel the acceptance of verdict

would not be plentiful enough ur COM
modious enough to hold the objectors.

would fall by it's own weight.

The United States and Cuba.

This government has approved a
requisition by the Cuban government
for arms and ammunition for use to
suppress revolt in that country. The
appeal for permission to purchase
munitions here has been passed from
the State Department to the War De-
partment, and it is likely that the ma
terials will be quickly dispatched.
This action follows closely upon a
proclamation by the President estab-
lishing an embargo against the ship
rnent of war munitions to Cuba, with
specific provision permitting the trans
port of munitions for the government
This action by the United States is
similar to that taken in the case Of
Mexico. But there is q material diff
ference IN the case in favor OF Cuba.
The United States holds a unique posi-
tion with reference to Cuba. 1t is
obligated, in effect, to maintain order
in the islands. Under the terms of
the act of Congress under which the
United States intervened in Cuba in
1898, this government is empowered
to interpose at any tma- when the
