MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS

for the reformation and blemishes
that mar foot beauty.
One of the commonest results of
wearing improperly fitted shoes is the
bending of the great toe. The joint
becomes enlarged and frequently If
the abuse is continued a painful
bunion forms. The normal position of
the great toe is straight forward, so
that it may act as a lever to push
the body forward in walking. Shoes
with straight inner line will prevent
this deformity.
Short shoes force the toes to curl
under, while narrow shoes crowd them
together, so that one toe may be
pushed up out of alignment with the
others. In extreme cases this raised
toe must be amputated, but If the con-
dition is treated in time the toe may
be trained to assume it's normal posi-
ton again.
Next to the bending in of the great
toe, the squeezing of the little toe is
the most frequently met with distor-
ton Of the feet. Rare, indeed, is the
woman who does not have corn or
calloused spot on this small member.
The toenail becomes thick and horny,
losing it's natural shape.
A foot cannot be beautiful when
the arch has fallen, and when there
are large corns and callouses on the
sole and toes. Although these blem.
ishes may be concealed by modish
shoes. their effects cannot so easily
be obliterated. Foot troubles cause
nervousness. facial wrinkles and dis
taste for the active physical exercise
that is essential to health and beauty.
The girl or woman who really wants
to have pretty feet will give them
proper care, which includes choice of
the right shoes, daily exercises for the
toes and rotation of ankles, manicur-
ing at least twice a month, massage
and daily cleansing with soap and
water.

CHAPTER XIV.
A Rift.

Myra's first feeling was a fine one.
She thought of Sally and Sallys re-
action. Since that night she had &C
cused her on the boat of letting Allen
Leigh make love to her she had come
to a clearer understanding Of Sally's
child-like nature.
And yet there were times when this
very quality in her sister annoyed
her. Being older and more expert
enced, she knew that men were drawn
by innocence. Doubtless, George
Britton had been drawn by Sally's
naive charm. 1t wasn't Sally's fault,
and yet Myra could be vicious at
times.
Her second feeling was not so fine;
it was one of hurt pride over a rather
ordinary Irritation on her own part.
well" she said with sheer. II
suppose / ought to apologize for in
truding. I'm very sorry, but, of
course, I couldn't be expected to
know"
They were all three standing. Sally
was trying to keep the tears back.
George Britton spoke first
Were all being very serious over
what is, after all, a trivial incident, "
he said with assurance. II came up
with the idea of having a cigarette
with you two, and Mrs. Bates looked
so charming that / yielded to the i'm
pulse to kiss her"
Myra smiled a rather ominous
smile.

your cigarette? Because, If you have,
it might be good idea for you to 60

ing the two women around Paris; he
had quite enjoyed it, and since this
new interest in Sally had been aroused
in him it had offered still more pleas
ant possibilities.
But he was a man Of the world
and he bowed.
I'm sorry, Mrs. Warren" And
then he turned to Sally. Il apologize
most sincerely, Mrs. Bates, for taking
an unwarrantable liberty. | hope you
will forgive me-"
Neither girl spoke and he took his
departure in silence. When the dool
had closed on him Myra turned to

to make love to you, why see him
when you're not dressed? You must
admit that any man would think it
strange"
But l didn't want to see him.
Sally was crying now.
Then why allow him to come up?
You see how inconsistent 1t all is?
You might at least be frank. Since
that night we quarreled 1 really be-
'lieved that you had ideals. But play
ing this game of innocence and then
taking refuge in tears when some
thing happens is disgusting"
Myra flung her parcels and fur
scarf on the bed and ripped off her
hat.
She had worked herself into a
regular rage now and was willing to
blame Sally for what had happened.
Sally's tears only irritated her the
more. Myra was like that.
But | didn't let him come up"
Sally was sobbing. "How could you
think such thing? Some one
knocked and l called, 'Entrezn The
next minute he was in the room. l
couldn't very we'll put him out"
'Oh, yes, you could"
But / couldn't without being rude.
And after all, Myra, he's your friend;
never liked him. I've told you so
over and over again. But | couldn't
be rude to him just because he was
your friend"
There was something pathetically
sincere about Sally at that moment.
Myra realized it dimly, but was too
angry to admit It, She had ffirted
with George Britton, and at the first
opportunity he had turned away from
her to Sally. She couldn't put the
blame on him, but she could torture
her sister.
That's all nonsense. If l had been
placed in the same position 1 could
have handled it. You're no child.
You're % and married woman
You'd better learn how to take care of
yourself. because. as | told you
before, I didn't come on this trip to
be your nursemaid."

PtOmaine Poisoning
Thought Death Cause

Philadelphia, Jan. 25.--LP)--Pto-
maine poisoning was advanced by the
authorities today as the possible
cause of the deaths Of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Wilson whose bodies, seated
in chairs facing each other, were
found in a bedroom at their home
last night.
Investigation revealed that the
pair. married only few months. in
good financial circumstances and
apparently happy, had everything to
live Tor. There was no odor of
escaping gas and no signs Of violence.
Theories OF murder and suicide were
abandoned.
Wilson and his wife, each about
80 years old, apparently had been
dead for two days.
