in this statement by a promi-

~ the feet are unhappy, you are
unhappy throughout. The feet express
youth and virility and good nature
more than, perhaps, any other part Of

The body helps the mind, az the mind

along together. II any part of the
body is disturbed, maIadjusted, it
must soon show up in the mind and
spirit"
To keep the feet and the face
happy, one needs the right foot

 Although Power, in an interVie" today, makes no direct charge against any one, he is posing the question of what the home office has done with the inner coffin shell which he says contained the body of Field Marshal Kitchener who went down with the cruiser Hamp- shire during the World war.
 Power declares that before the coffin's arrival at Waterloo Road from Norway, he was repeatedly ad- yised 10 take every precaution. He ,uoted a "very eminent man as saving to him. If they can, they will diddle you at last

POLICEMAN QUELLS
 GUEST AT WEDDING
Obnoxious Conduct Ends in Ar-
 rest and S7 Fine

John Bellus, aged %, of 4O2 Elm street, attended a wedding reception last evening at Ukrainian Hall on Erwin Place on invitation, and had been there only short time when he became thoroughly obnoxious, according 10 the testimony of Super numerary Officer Huck in police court this morning. The bridegroom finally ordered Bellus elected, and when the guest remonstrated, the officer placed him under arrest for breach of the peace.
 Bellus pleaded guilty this morn ing and offered no defense. Asked if he is employed, he replied affirma- lively, but said he did not work yes terday on account of the wedding Judge filling fined him S7 and costs.

 Rink is building a house on Bain street and there is water in the eel lar to a depth of about Is inches. The boy makes a practice of throw ing stones into the water, but Zink could not catch him until Monday, according to the testimony. Seizing him by the arm, Zink brought him to the cellar and ordered him to take out the stones he had thrown in. whereupon the boy became frightened and cried, according to Zink.
 The boy, however. claimed that Zink seized him forcibly by the neck and dragged him along the ground, causing injuries to his face, back and ear. Dr. Aronson testified to attending the boy, and Leopold Strawhacker of Rhodes street said he was operating a tractor nearby and turned in time to see Zink seize the boy by the neck and drag him to the cellar.
 Judge Alling asked Zink why he did not make complaint to the po- lice and go about the matter in an orderly manner, instead of taking the law in his own hands. The judge pointed out that Zink knew the boys address and could have directed the police to it.
 Judge Alling nolled the theft charge against Walter Srogi of 9S Willow street, as the boy has been returned to M eciden School for Boys. He was recently paroled from the school.
