Feet Cause More People More Trouble
 Than Do Any Other Parts Of Body

sweating feet, aching feet, swelling feet, odorous feet, and, worst Of all, painful feet.
 Sometimes the troubles are only fin the feet, Occasionally, how. ever, the symptoms travel to the calf muscles or thighs, to the back, or to even more remote portions Of the body.
 The doctor first seeks signs Of pain or swelling, He looks to see # there is discoI0rati0D, such as re- suits from bruisjng or hemorrhage.
 He wants to know if the feet ache during the night or f the pain be. gins early in the morning. It Is important to know whether the swelling disappears after a nights rest. There are many different causes for this condition.
 Presence of cOrns, caIIuses or warts is significant, 4 sudden in. crease in weight may reflect itself promptly tn pain in the feet, which formerly were able to carry the bur- den Of the body weight,
 Changes tn the styles of shoes that are worn, and even in the stockings, may cause foot pains,
 If there Is any sign Of arthritis or rheumatic disease, the feet may promptly be affected. Excessive per- sDiratiOD, tingjing, and burning sensations may be associated with nervous disorders or with infections, Tine most common disorders Of the feet are associated with bad posture, wrong types Of shoes, in- creased weight, and IDSutictently developed muscles,
 Fiat feet is the most common disturbance, Tine first step against fiat feet s to protect the arches and to change their alignment by use Of correctly fitted shoes, with the addition Of the right kind of supports, either built into the shoes or placed inside them,

 It is exceedingly important, ag Q preventive Of fat feet, to select the proper type of shoes for children. ChfIdFen's shoes should have a fairly rigid sole and the heel should not be too high,

Your ChidrgM
By Olive Rehorts Barton

It Is fast becoming . world of wits and yet I believe that failure to teach the art of Quick-thinklng Is the weakest part of our whole educational system.
 We have concentrated on mem- ory, on application. steadiness and contemplation. But how of ten do teachers give exercises in instantaneous thought Not often, if ever. They are not to blame, of course, because our ponderous school programs permit of no ex- tra crowding. Time enters into the teachers day, more than most people dream, and if she does any, thing not allowed for in the cure riculun, those minutes must be tak- en from some other work. which will suffer.
 Parents Can Ala
 However, we can't expect the schools to do everything. And, in their turn, parents arc busy al. SO, and feel that they cannot con- tribute outside help toward those matters for which there is no time in school. But there is one place, and one, time, when 1t is possible to introduce lessons un- suspected bV the child; and that iS meal time. It is also the inter- Jude when families get together.
 Riddles are already fun, but they are more than that, They acceler- ate the mind and make tho Tid- dle-guessers delve into corners os reason not usually exercised. So l suggest the riddle.
 But this is not all. Father cen save up stories of tight places that certain individuals have been in. And after telling his tale, saving the answer, he can ask. "What would you do, Jerry, if that happened to youS Quick now"
 He can ask each child in turn and then give the right solution, But, in the meantime, the mental gymnastics have accomplished their purpose.
 Games Stimulate Wits
 still another way may be tried. This is to announce almost any subject at random-car new hat, vine, bicycle, church, congress or television. Subjects should de- pend on the general age of the children. Then lot each child make Q quick speech about the subject chosen. The practice, # continued for any length of time, helps to increase observation and influences children to fix in Ynind the things they sec or read about. Talking about given subjects helps to coordinate speech with thought, too.
 Rapid number tests are excel. lent, also. Short cuts In comput. Ing are invented. For instance, 26 times anything. What is that? Twenty.fiv0 times twelvel Question and answer books are invaluable. But too much time must not be allowed for answers, It is not advisable, in on exercise for mental speed, to give much time for thinking, even at the cost of error. Gradually the children will learn to combine accuracy with agility.
 Wits, wits, and still moro vita A good old word and we have pretty well forgotten. It combines judg- ment and alacrity, and dear only knows, we need both.

shining eyes, clear skin, glossy hair. . well-developed figure, q clean body and pleasant smile these are the things that make for true beauty. It matters not that your nose is crooked or your chin too short if you radiate health, are good tempered and keep yourself imuac- ulately groomed. You can be beauti- ful in spite of any minor facial or figure defect.
 One of the most attractive girls T ever have known Is too short to be- smart. Her chin is too square ever to be called pretty. And I shouldn't be surprised if, accord ing to the general conception of beauty, her mouth is too large. She definitely is not Q beauty, but she Is beautiful.
 She brushes her hair until it gleams in the sunshine. She wears the average amount of makeup, but she puts 1t on over carefully

HOW THE WIND BLOWS
 IN BOSTON


 Tn the official bulletin of the Mas sachusetts Health Department, is- sued the last quarter of 1895, Bos- ton physician offers the public this opinion of the injection treatment of varicose veins:
 "This method has proved erni-
 nently successful and at present ct
 least I25 people Q week are being
 treated by injection in Q single
 Boston clinic. At first we only in.
 jected (elSwhere than Boston read
 injected only) one vein ct a sit-
 ting. Now, some of is inject many
 veins, thus diminishing the num-
 ber of times the patient has to
 have treatment. The great ad-
 vantage in this method of treat
 Jncnt ts that 1t is essentially am.
 bulatory, that is, the patient does
 not have to give up his ordinary
 routine of life but can go to the
 doctors office for treatment and
 return to his regular occupation"
 Today this method has superseded the older surgical methods in the practice of competent physicians everywhere. It iS uniformly sue. cesSfui and satisfactory. It brings relief without interfering for over q day with the patients regular work or occupation. It is available not only for varicosc veins in the legs but also for cases complicated with yaricOse lIlcer--chemica obliteration of the underlying or affected vein by injection being the thing needed to enable the ulcer to heal. Many women who suffer few or none Of the disabilities due to varicose veins undergo injection treatment purely for cosmetic purpose, as the pror1i- nent veins are unsightly. Then, too, q physician skilled in this work and equipped with the necessary strong light and binocular loupe and Bpe- cial fine needle can obliterate the minute venulcs or broken capil- laries" under the skin of any part Of the body by this method, giving as excellent cosmetic result.
 Finally, as is wei; known in Bos- ton but for some reason was ignored in this health department publica. ton, the same method, injection, is now employed everywhere as the method of choice for the cure Of hemOrrb0ids (which are varicoBe veins, essentially.

Governor Urges
Second Payment

Governor Frank ID. Fitzgerald
today issued a statement remind
ing taxpayers that they must act
at once, if they wish to take ad-
vantage OF the savings offered by
the 10-year installment plan OF
paying delinquent taxes.
September 1 is the deadline'
the governor declared. Those
who paid their first installment
last year, and those who wish to
come under the plan by making
two payments at once, will find 1t
to their advantage, l am sure, to
visit their county treasurer"
Last year, the governor recalled
treasurers' offices were jammed
during the closing days, causing
much inconvenience and delay. TO
avoid this, he urged that payments
be made as early as possible.
While the state is standing the
expenses of the tax-collection drive
Governor Fitzgerald declared II
was acting merely as a collection
agent. Ninety per cent Of the de-
linouent taxes collected remain in
the local community where they
originate. They are used for the
support of city, township, school
district. or county government.
"The state is deeply Interested
he explained, "for the reason that
a self-supporting local government
is the best kind of a government.
It is managed by it own people.
1t is not subject to evils of remote
control. Likewise, when local
community handles its own affairs,
it does not become an additional
financial burden to the state. The
local unit of government, the state
and the people in general profit
when taxes are paid"

Flags the Hearst Newspapers

Speaking last before the Goth
century Roosevelt club of which
Mrs. Catherine Hill is president,
Stephen A. Majewski, former may
or of Hamtramck, made a vicious
attack against the Hearst news
papers.
Majewski said: 1.-The colored peo-
pie can not afford to be lead by the
Hearst newspapers.
Hearst reminds me of the story
of the Boggie man that is told to
the little children when they are
young but when they grow up they
find that the story is false. This is
the same situation that exists in
the case of the big Red" scare
that Mr.. Hearst is trying to get
started"
Majewski, who is the Democratic
candidate for Congress in the First
District, was followed to the speak
ers stand by Leroy G. White, Will

Man Shot While
Sitting In Front
Of His Home

CHICAGO-(ANP)- Police here
are seeking three white men who
shot and killed A. d. Adams, 800
North Sangamon street, Tuesday
night, as he sat on the porch of
his home. Adams lived in the only
building in the block tenanted by
colored people and was chatting
on the front porch with Mrs. &C.
neva Hill, IS, who also lives in the
building, and according to Mrs.
Hill, as the three assassins drove
op to the house, one Of them
shouted at Adams: "Come OH
get out of there!" After which two
shots we're fired, one of them strik-
ing Adams in the neck. Because
of the suddeness of the attack and
he fact that it occurred at night,
police had only a meager descrip-
ton of the assailants. Mrs. Hill
