In the meantime, with diminished exercise the body often tends to take on more weight, further increasing the burden on already incapable feet. Thu: foot condition is automatically gravated. Foot trouble often ties on to f more serious body ilis. Poor condi tion of feet leads to bad body posture, with its attendant train of evil ef- fects. There is also constant danger of some condition of ill health arising to remedy which exercise is neces- sary.

Foot trouble stands in the least ex-| H cusable list of human ills. part it is brought about by shoes shaped, not as feet ar but rather conforming to fashions and fads. In a surprising number of cases well advanced fogt deformity remedies | itself when offending type of shoe is discarded. This was strikingly illus- trated during the war.
