Your Health
and Diet
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
BY DIR. Logan Clendening

Those who have weak feet
which easily get tired, can do
much by simple home treat
ments. These treatments can
be applied before retiring, and
in the morning.
Contrast baths are very use
full for improving circulation
and overfatigue. Two basins
each large enough to hold both
feet, are used. One is filled
with warm and one with cold
water. Place both feet in the
warm water for exactly one min
ute. Then transfer them to the
cold water for exactly one min
ute. Alternate in this way for
10 minutes. Day by day make
the contrast greater-hotter and
colder water.
Massage of the feet is a good
tonic. You can use cold cream
or vaSeline or analgeSic balm
ointment. The skin should not
be rubbed, but the fingers
should press the bones at the
base of the toes and execute a
rotary movement. The toes
should be moved back and forth.
Grasp the whole foot and rotate
it, and move it back and forth.
Hos congresses of flannel
wrung out of a hot solution of
EPSON salts are very grateful
to tired and rheumatic feet.
Exercises for the longitudinal
arch were described yesterday.
Exercises for the transverse
arch are as follows:
Door stop exercise: Get two
door stops at a hardware store
or five and ten cent store. Take
the rubber tips off and screw
them into a board, of a size
that you can lay on the floor
in front of your chair so that
the two door stops are opposite
your two feet. Sitting in the
chair. put your bare FEET over
the door stops and, with the
ball of the stop just under the
base of the toes, curl the toes
over the stop, pressing down
gently. Then relax the toes.
Continue this 200 times.
2. Sit in a chair with a. bath
towel spread on the floor in
front of you, the narrow end
facing you. With your bare
feet grasp the towel and drag
it toward you with alternate
pulls of each foot-right. left,
right, left-until the towel is
entirely beneath your feet.
3. A golf ball on the floor is
rolled under the toes of the
bare foot, picked up with the
toes and placed under the
toes of the other foot and then
the exercise reversed.

your early acquaintance, but
you ought to be able to sub
stitute for these days the
calmer joys OF an assured and

It does seem to me you want
to give this young man a bet

really wrong. He is out of a
job, and he probably has no
money to spend. You say he

be lighthearted in those cir
cumstances.

It didn't seem to matter so
much to Dee about Tony's los

mattered was that Babe had
been here. Her sister,.

ALMOST HOPELESS.
Yes, I should speak to him

not? Since you have met in

me to go out with anybody
else and that suited me fine,

The Marry-Go.
Round
By Helen Rowland

The Much. Married Woman
When a stage beauty or a
rich or successful woman goes
in for progressive marriage and
finds life just one husband
after another, and just one
marital mistake after another,
it is not always because she is
a temperamentalist or a va
rietist. It is more because she
is an idealist and an optimist.
She is always fOndIy hoping
to find the perfect love and
til ideal man-and if she
never finds them, it is because
of her poor judgment in selec-
ton and her poor taste in
men.
Some. women seem to have a
natural genius for gathering
lemons in the garden of love.
If you should lead a woman
like that to a conclave of the
saints. she would look around
and find some little imp who
had slipped in when the guard
wasn't looking. And fall for
him!
Some women can never resist
a charming playboy. The man
with whom such a woman goes
to the altar each time may
part his hair a different way,
wear different clothes and have
a different shade of eyes. But
he is, in reality, in character,
temperament and habits just
the same man as all her former
husbands-and she is letting
herself in for all the same old
troubles and disappointments.
A charming playbOy usually
makes an ideal lover, but he is
a washOut as a husband.
SO, after the glamour of the
honeymoon and the gloss Of
illusion have worn off, she is
glad to trade him for a Peking-
ese or anything else that only
has to be fed and coddled, and
doesn't borrow her money.
Another type of woman goes
in for adolescents.p She cannot
say no to any man who wants
to be "mothered." She is al
ways taking a boy to raise-and
then discovering that there are
some men who never grow up.
Still another sort of woman
has a weakness for the woman
chaser-the man with the dark
raspberry past" who is known
a. a conqueror of women. She
always fondly hopes that
THIS time, he's serious-and
it's real love-" And, perhaps,
he is and it is-for a little
while. But, while an uncertain
lover may be intriguing-a
stepping husband is merely IA
tiguing.
Other women have a weak
ness for the caveman, bullying
type-the masterfuI he-man
who wants to run a wOman's
life and choose everything for
her, from her paStimes, friends
and interests to the brand of
her tooth paste.

Pappy Monument

3 The Rev. Giles B. Cooke, white,
rebel veteran of the Civil War.
proposes that a statue be erected in
Richmond. Virginia. to the efficient,
loyal, devoted and faithful slaves of
the war reriod who tended the white
folks at home while rebels went out
to war to keep them in slavery.
y A Louisiana city has NANNY"
monument. Richmond would have
one to "Pappy."
Of all Southern cities, Richmond
probably deserves the ignominy of
having such monumental folly.
As pointed out by Mr.. Josephus
Simpson in current Opportunity,
Richmond has white principals of
colored nublic schools and less than
5000 registered voters in a popula-
ton of $4,000.
Mr.. Simpson forgot to add that
Richmond, once capital of the Con-
federacy had decrease in popula-
tion in the past ten years, and Rich
mond is the seat of Union University
where resides the Rev. Gordon Han
cock, gloomiest preacher of pessim-
ism outside the National Urban
League.
If Richmond will tolerate it by all
means give it a Pappv Monument.

A Bitter Lesson

President H over, Republican
President of the United States and
Honorable Anton j. Cermak. Demo-
cratic Mayor of the City of Chicago,
are making things extremely tough
and disagreeable for the colored peo-
pie. Both of these gentlemen seem
to have adopted the policy in regard
to US that "they shall not pass" This
writer is not disappointed in the &C.
-tions or policies of either gentle
men. 1t was written in the records.
We should have known Just what to
expect but in the face of present
miserable political and economic con-
ditions we find this ray of hope
they cannot last forever. Disap
pointment "hoovers" of the entire
nation. There is unrest and dissat-
isfaction. The colored people must
face the fact that the treatment that
they are receiving is emanating from
both a Republican and Democrat.
There is no issue of party whatso-
ever We are being taught a bit
ter lesson, and perhaps we are being
taught II for a definite purpose. In
tho meantime the torture will be
brought on and we must bear it like
men until the day OF reckoning
which viii roll around shortly.
