SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 28, 1920 WATCH YOUR FEET Important Matter Pertaining to General Health. .o%ygen I the Hrenth. Thé test was also made to demonstrate whether it was necessary that alrmen should have oxygen apparatus when flying at great Heights. It proved that oxygen was necessary to fising men, but it did "not show to what height they could fly with safety. While in the box Barcroft kept a record of his sen- sations and made sclentific observa- tions. He said he suffered from sleep- lessness, but otherwlise did not experi- ence much inconvenience except on the last day, when the atmosphere became extremely rarefled. He then had headaches and nausea. Experts Advise Walking “Indian Fash- fon® in Preference to the “Toeing Out,” Which Has Hitherto Been Considered Proper. (Bhort Talks on Health, by the United States Public Health Service, Washing- ton, D. C) ‘Well-directed feet are now consider ed to be quite as important to general health as a well-poised head or an erect carriage. Few people seem to realize that many troublesome ailments are caused by flat or weak feet, and at- tribute the nervous depression, pain in the legs and back and general fatigue to:some other cause, wheh the feet are really at fault, says the United States public health service. Actual “fiat foot” is much less com- mon. than is ordinarily thought. On the other hand, “weak foot” is very common, and if not remedied gradual- 1y leads to flat foot. - Recent Investigations have estab- lished the fact that “toeing out” in walking, or standing, puts an added strain on the arch of tke feet. Instead of standing and walking with the feet forming an angle of about 45 degrees, . as formerly advocated in military and ¢ .athletic manuals, experts now advo-: cate standing and walking with the toes pointed straight forward. This been found to be of great assist- ‘ance in remedying weak and flat feet, and constitutes what is known as walking “Indian fashion.” “Toeing ‘straight” should be prac- ticed for a little while, and it will come easy. Make two parallel lines on the floor, about six inckes apart, and walk on them with the toe and heel touch- ing the outside of the line. Follow this up. with an exercise such as' the fol- lowing: Stand with the feet parallel, with about two inches between the feet, and rise on the toes anywhere from 20 to 40 times each night and morning. In standing acquire the habit of placing the feet a few inches apart, with the same distance between heels and toes. Keep the body weight equally supported on both feet. Do not make the mistake of believ- ing that flat feet can be cured by the shoemaker, or by the ordinary arch that 18 sold in shoe stores. The con- dition 1s one that should be treated by an experienced physician when it fails to respond to the measures outlined above. It 18 comparatively easy to remedy a tendency to weak or flat feet in chil- dren by teaching them the proper walking and standing posture. Par- ents would do well to teach their chil- dren to walk Indian faskion. . Suddenly Famous Maj. Hugh Thomas, O. D. E. the Englishman who recently bought the complete town of Milford Haven for a quarter of a million sterling, had probably never been heard of by the man in the street before. Another in- cident in which a “surprise million- aire” figured occurred some years back’ when China wanted a loan of $50.000.- 000. A lender turned up in Mr. Birch Crisp of whom practically no one had ever heard, but who soon became fa- mous when seven great powers, in- cluding Great Britain, took immediate steps to prevent him.advancing the money. " TOO MANY HUMAN “ISLANDS” Lack Power of Expression to Commu. nicate Thoughts Sq That Others Can Understand. You are a human island, if you can- not express your thoughts so others can understand them, says Ruth Jocelyn Wattles of the Colorado agri- cultural college. If your mood is one of appreciation of grandeur and beau- ty, and you say, “Gee, ain't it gor- geous?' If in gazing at the Grand canon, you say, “Ain’t it cute?’ .you are not in communication with your fellows; you are an island, a man entirely surrounded by men, but not in connection with them. It in speaking to a group of sol- dlers you discuss, “that combination of proteins, albumens and other.food substances which scientists have de- termined I8 the most conducive to health and vigor,” your connection is poor. Say “chow” or “mess” if your aim i8 to be understood. If you have no adjective but “aw- ful” to apply to a dinner, a mountain, a hat, an accident, the new styles, the European war, vour wires are down. You cannot express thoughts on all these subjects to your fellow humans by use of the one word “awful.” If it is your only adjective, keep quiet; your silence may indicate an appre- ciation which your one adjective fails to express. tsland?

Now, I don’t know how many ar- ticles my wife turned out for the Red Cross; she didn’t count them. She started to count them, but when she had knit several hundred articles of every kind she said counting tired her, and she quit. After that she esti- mated ‘her output by needles.” “By needles? What do you mean by needles?” asked Mr. Hamlin, a lit- tle huffily. ‘ “] mean the needles my wife wore out,” explained the squire. “She wore out three sets of needles knitting for the Red Cross; and the fourth set was so near wore out when the war ended that they wasn't no thicker than horsehairs.”—Youth's Companion. Quite Unmoved. - ! Music shops of any pretensions con- tain at least one piano for the use of customers, which is a privilege not infrequently abused. An old man entered a fashionable music shop the other day and asked for a certain book of tunes—it was given him—and he sat down and began to play soft- ly. He was such a long time that the assistants—at first amused — grew weary of the droning noise. The pro- prietor was summoned. He came for- ward, and ventured to say, politely, “Do you think you will take the book, sir? Does it suit you?” The old man looked up -in mild sur- prise, and sald softly, “I cannot -tell. I have played only half the tunes,” and he placidly turned over another leaf.—Edinburgh Scotsman. Lived Days in Sealed Box.
