FOREIGN AFFAIRS DEPT.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS DEPT.
On July q. 1889, the new United
States government established a de-
partment of foreign affairs, COM
pletely separated from conduct of do
mestic affairs.
This va the first executive depart
ment organized under the new con-
stitution after George Washington
had been elected president and John
Adams, vice president.
The bill creating the department
defined its duties to be correspond
ence with and instructions to diplo-
matte and consular representatives
abroad and negotiations with agents
| of foreign nations in the United
States. John Jay was placed In
temporary charge.
This department was short-lived,
however, for q few weeks later con-
grcss passed a bill creating the de-
partment of state to assume the du-
ties of the department of foreign al
fairs.
The scope of the department wal
materially enlarged and it became the
most important Of government Of
fees under the president. Jay was
nominated to ..,e chief justice OF the
United States and Thomas Jefferson
to be secretary Of state. Both were
commissioned Sept. Is. 1859.

A GOOD TREATMENT FOR
BuINIONS

In many parts OF the body where
strong tendons pass owe bones or
where one bone presses upon another,
friction is avoided by an intermediary
tough membranouS sac filled with
fluid. These sacs, called ''bursae,'
enable the two parts to work or glide
past each other with ease Bunions
are caused by the swelling Of the bur-
sa covering the ball of the great toe.
The inflammation may spread into
the adjacent tissues of the foot and
be very painful.
If the inflammation exists for q
long time, the tissues become thick
and hard. In the acute form the joint
is swollen, hard, painful and red. In
the chronic form the entire joint area
becomes enlarged, and the big toe, in
place of looking forward, points to-
wards the little toe. The pain is not
SO Severe in the chronic form, but
the enlargement is much harder to
reduce because Of the toughening of
| the tissue.
The principal cause Of this swelling
is improperly fitting shoes. They may
be to tight and cause a constant
pressure, or they may be too loose and
heavy at the same time, which will
cause as much trouble. Injuries to
the foot from stubbing the toe or
from a heavy object falling on the
foot may also be the start of inflarn-
nation.
If you wish to overcome the bum
ion, the first thing to do is to take
away all pressure of the shoe upon
the swelling. This may be done by
obtaining special bunion shoes from
an orthopedic shoe store; or, by cut
ting a hole through the leather of
the shoe considerably larger than the
bunion, and inserting a piece of very
soft leather inside the shoe to make
the hole inconspicuous: or. If the
bunion is not large, it may be bene-
fitted by wearing extra wide.toed
shoes.
Sometimes the pressure may be re-
moved by the application of a bunion
plaster, a form Of ring which Is
pasted on the foot around the bunior
to take away the pressure from the
sore area. It Is most important tc
be sure that the big toe "a straighter
out properly and that all pressure i
taken away from the bunion.
After the problem Of relieving the
pressure has been solved, the follow
ing treatment may be used to re-
ducc the swelling and soreness. Soak
the foot in very hot water for at least
thirty minutes morning and evening
and keep the water quite hot by add
ing more hot water at frequent in
tervals. A handful Of ordinary bath
EPSON salts thrown into the water
will improve the effect. The cheapes'
epson salts r just as beneficial. Al
ter a half hour of the epson salts ho'
water treatment. massage your feet
thoroughly with cocoa butter, olive o.
almond oil, giving the entire feet a
complete massage, always rubbing up

Mrs. Josephine Valcnte, 10. of Los

for the death Of her 8-monthS-old
son.. She admitted setting fire to his
baby carriage and burning him to
death.
She told police that she owed a
milk bill and could get no more milk
for her baby until it was paid: that
her husband refused to give her mon
ey; that she wanted to go to work
but couldn't afford to put the baby
in a day nursery; and it seemed to
her that the only thing to do was to

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Catarrh

Catarrh
Question-Mrs. K. S. writes: my
little boy has a continuous discharge
from the nose, especially the left side.
How can I remedy this?H
Answer-A correct diet, free from
catarrh- producing foods, will stop the
cause of the discharge. Temporary
help can be received through the use
of the ultra : violet light applied di-
rectly in the nose through suitable
a%pplicators.
Rash While on Fast

the cause of a patient, after being on
orange juice for a time. coming out in
a rash? I have been on orange Juice
myself for nearly two weeks and I
feel fine. Patient I refer to was a
very heavy eater"
Answer-The skin frequently breaks
out on a person who is on an orange
fast. This is especially true with
those who have been heavy eaters
! and who are very toxic. It is simply
caused by the elimination OF toxins.

tinued long enough.
