narrowest across the toes. It has
paid them exceedingly well. but II has
cost the public a vast amount of suf-
fering and loss of efficiency. not 10
mention the outright extravaganza of
freak shoes.
Another wholesome change which
believe naturally follows the advent
of the brogans is the apparent
dwindlinC of an evil which was be-
coming rampant, the humbug foot
specialist" same. These trick foot
experts did a tremendous amount of
harm. and it is distinct blessing for
the gullible public that their day is
done. 1t was always a wonder to
me that the coat and vest makers did
not provide a line of diagnosis and
treatment for liver and lung troubles.
They would be just as competent TO
do SO. They missed a bet.
Here's the health suggestion /
would give you: Think of your feet as
conveniently triangular. with the long
est sides of the pair of triangles par
allel. Keep that picture in mind when
selecting shoes.

Your Baby and Mine

Problems of All Kinds.

Mrs. F. l.. f. writes: MY baby
is months old and I want to know
if ! should start feeding him now?
Sometimes my milk does not seem
sufficient to satisfy him. l would also
like to know. how I can get him TO
drink water He will drink il only
when ! put orange juice in it. What
would be good for constipation"
Answer: The leaflets No. and 3.

will be exactly what you want now.
Please send me a self-addressed and
stamped envelope and ask for them.
| am sure you will find, though, that
when the baby gets a little cereal
with his morning and evening nurs-
ing, and some vegetable broth with
the o'clock nursing. the constipation
will be cured naturally. Probably all
he needs is some addition TO his diet,
in order to stimulate natural move
ments, which is far better than hav-
ing to make use of any artificial lax
atives. 1t might be well now to give
one bottle feeding a day. in prepara-
ton for the time when the baby will
have to be Weaned. Let him have
orange juice in the water.
Mrs. I. +. r. writes: Il am worried
about my baby daughter, 10 weeks old.
She has been wheeling since birth
and she chokeS up so, at times, that
she can hardly get her breath"
Answer-This seems to me to be a
matter entirely outside of your ability
to cure. Take the baby to doctor and
have the throat X-rayed. This Is the
only sure method of telling what is
causing the trouble.
Mrs. J. d. II. writes: ] have fed the
baby for a year on a prepared baby

solid foods. Should l give him just
plain milk now or continue the food
with it? I am now slowly decrea sing

Answer-As soon as the baby Is
started on vegetables and cereals, as
he should be at this age, there is no
longer any use for the baby food.

used in addition to vegetables and
cereals would overfeed that particular
