PARIS. grapes for a prince

who can do the job quickly enough to
keep the Aga Khan busy eating.
Aga Khan of India. whom England
accords salute of IL guns, is head of
the Ismaili Mohammedans Whether
for religious or gastromic reasons. he
eats much fruit. but grapes get the
preference. Every grape has a skin. The
Aga Khan doesn't like the skins and he
is the kind of prince who won't be
bothered by any such small job as skim
ming grapes.
When he came to Paris for the racing
season he brought with him a little
jewel case in which were two small sill
yer instruments. one to hold the grape
and the other to jerk of the skin. He
turned them over to the maitre d'hotel
of the restaurant where he usually
dimes and told him to practice. Now
whenever the Aga Khan favors that
place by appearing the maitre d'hotel
with speed and dexterity peels grapes,
so all the Aga Khan has to do is to put
them In his mouth and swallow.

Treatment of Weak Foot.

fiat foot, weak foot weak ankles, as
the condition is variously known, occurs
in young persons. children from 10 to
Is years OF age. especially girls. and tn
too many cases is maltreated through
the advice of some incompetent person.
The worst possible thing to do for
this common trouble Ii to apply arch
props or any form of support for the
feet, either built in the shoes or other
wise. Yet this is the very thing mis-
guided parents do to children who have
the trouble. Some one is pretty certain
to suggest that the child Is getting
falling arches and that Is sufficient
to send the dumb parent of in quest
Of the latest and most plausible thing
In the way Of props. This Is just as
logical and sensible as II would be TO
bind the child's arm In spliilts or to put
his limb In a plaster cast II II seemed
weak and tired or painful. No sane
parent would think Of putting brace
on a child's spine or hip without good
medical advice. Few parents show any
sanity In dealing with the feet
These exercises help 10 prevent and
cure weak feet
/, Practice walking tiptoe with the
toes turned IN as though you were
pieeontoed This Is best II done bare
foot or with soft shoes.
2 Practice walking on the outer bor-
ders Of your feet as though you were
very boWlegged.
3. Sitting, with feet free, practice
lifting, tossing and catching a croquet

ball between your feet, grasping 1t with

eggs, milk. butter and cheese.
They are really lacto-ovo vegetariaIls.
Those who are real vegetarians must
make a very conscious effort to secure
all Of the necessary protein. Most nuts
and the soy bean seem to have higher
grade of protein than the other veg
etable products. In some animal expert
ments these have proved to be suficierlt
to maintain growth and repair.
II you do not eat any flesh foods at
all. then you should have at least
quart Of milk day, for milk ha; large
quantity of very high grade protein.

Mrs. H. If you and others who are
so trusting as to believe their blatant
advertising would take the trouble to
write to the chief post Office inspector
at Washington, d. c., and tell him Of
your experiences, something might be
done by the Federal authorities TO debar
them from the mails. Unfortunately
most people who are swindled by mail
order fakes, never make complaint and
therefore the officials have no data to
proceed against them.

slowly lower your heels Repeat from
four to 80 times according to your

lei and never toe out, but imagine
there Is nail sticking up near the
inner border OF the ball or waist of the

with your weight on the outer border
TO avoid being hurt by the nail.
Physicians sometimes apply an adhe-

You know what fats are and you
know what starches and sugars are, but
do you know what protein, the other
great food principle, is? I'll tell you.
Protein is the building and repair ele-
ment in the food, therefore it is abso-
lutely necessary in all diets. Too much
is believed to be an irritant, but too
little Is also detrimental, for then the
growth and repair processes will not go
on. And remember that one vital tissue
is always growing. even in the adult, and
that is the blood corpuscles, and that
always the constant body cells need a
lot of repair.
Why We Should Have Some Animal
Protein.
/. Most vegetable proteins lack some
of the building stones. so are not nearly
so efficient in building up the muscles.
blood, brain and other vital organs as
the animal proteins. Furthermore. veg
etable proteins are not so completely d.
gested as the animal protein.
2. The mineral matter in strictly
vegetarian diet alone is insufficient to
meet the body requirements.
3. Another disadvantage of trying to
get all the nourishment from the veg
etable kingdom is that the digestive
tract will have too much cellulose or
fiber and there will be too much dis
tension and gas.
Fortunately, most so-called vege-
tarians are really not strictly vege-

Several theater owners in Western
State purchased the right to show
pictures of recent championship prize
fight in another State.
Federal officials, learning OF the plan
to show the pictures, seized the films
under the authority Of United States
statute prohibiting interstate transport
tation of fight films
The exhibitors sought 10 enjoin the
seizure on the ground that the Aims
had been printed wholly within the
State They contended that the burden
was on the Government officials to
prove that the exhibitors had violated
the law claiming that mere possession
OF the Aims was insufficient To SHOW
a violation OF the statute.
The court, however. IN this case up"
held the action Of the Federal officials
Georgia, West Virginia and California
seem to enforce the Law strictly Flor
ida, New York and Connecticut are less
inclined 10 enforce 1t.
There Is a strong sentiment that
this statute Is now without any sound
purpose as 1t was adopted when public
opinion was generally opposed TO prize
iRhting. This attitude has been changed
by the broadcasting today OF detailed
accounts through the radio and news
papers and by the large attendance
at these fights"

! beach. Doubtless we shall still call these
garments Lido paJamas even after Lido
is no longer allowed to enjoy the COM
fort Of them. Also at Lido originated
the fashion for going from morning till
night in bathing attire, of playing
tennis, riding horseback. taking walks,
drinking tea or eating dinner in cos
TUNES designed originally for the bath
ing beach.
And now word comes that Premier
Mussolini objects. He would not have
the fair name of any italian watering
place dishonored by being associated
with such inadequate clothes.
His objection comes at q time when
most of us who have followed the Lido
fashion have ceased to see that there
really is anything immodest about it
at least SO far as we ourselves are
concerned. II the Fascist regulation is
carried out one-piece bathing suits,
bareback bathing suits. very short bath
ing suits. bare legs will no longer be
seen anywhere in Italy. and the Lido
traditions will have TO be carried on
elsewhere.
Al seashore and lakeside resorts in
this country certain regulations nave
been made restraining the fervor OF the
followers of the new bathing fashions,
on the subject would of course be quite
out of the question. And If you chance
to visit bathing beach where you are
restrained from wearing your bareback
bathing suit and your one-piece swim
ming costume you will probably be able
10 find another little farther down
the beach where you can suit yourself
in such matters.
