MAGA MILADY B ZINE PAGE. EAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS Types of Feet. ALKING is such a common- place affair that it is for too often overlooked as one | of the secrets of health and beauty. A graceful car- riage and an easy stance are positively essential to poise and certainly make for health. Some little time ago an eminent American chiropodist created a slight gensation by predicting that as a result of wearing high-heeled shoes modern woman was fast evolving a type of foot gimilar to the hoof of a horse. He asserted that just as the human foot in general differs from the foot of years age, before the fancy French shoes were invented, so the modern woman's foot is going through a similar evolu- tion from the normal io the abnormal. It is also said by some authorities that Yace and upbringing can be judged from the feet. So we might say that the preservation of health, youth and beauty in the race and in the individual case depends in a large part on the kind of footwear that is used- It is the task of the younger generation to emancipate women kind from unhygienic footwear. just as they have been saved from the tight, heavy, unhealthful clothing and corsets of yesteryears Tli-fitting shoes put a strain on the s and muscles of the body which s in premature facial wrinkles and external disturbances. a shrill fallen arches other tone in the voice, flat feet and sometimes serious Internal disor- The important point in choosing ghoes is the straight mner line from heel to toe. This prevents bunions and | makes it_easier to walk gracefully with | toes pointed straight ahead and weight | on the outer edge of the feet, level | with ankle. While this sort of shoe is | recommended for young people with natural feet, it is not comfortable for mature women whose foot bones have alreas become deformed by wearing incorrect shoes and walking incorrectly. Special corrective shoes are helpful and comfortable, howev in such cases. The feet support the weight of the whole body and may be compared to the foundation of a building. If the ground- | work is not scientifically adjusted to its | purpose, all the beauty and strength of | the superstructure are threatened Only upon the foundation of strong, shapely feet can milady build a healthful and ‘beautiful body. Three types of feet are recognized the Posture League, as follows: * type of foot may be understood by not- ing the relation of the broadest part | of the foot to the center line of the heel | carried forward.” Inflared—If across | the ball more of the foot surface lies | ders. by e MENU FOR A DAY.

The diagrma thus made will tell you whether your foot is inflared, out- flared or straight. Then when you buy a pair of shoes notice the shape of the sole. If you have an inflared foot do not choose an outflared or straight shoe; select one that confoms to your NANCY PAGE Not Hard to Make Smooth White Sauce. BY FLORE: LA GANKE. Lois was expecting guests for lunch- eon. She was serving eggs a la king on toasted scones, escalloped tomatoes, assorted relishes, baked apples with a stuing of buttered crumbs, orange peel, a suspicion of cinnamon and honey. The apples were washed, cored and then stuffing was put in the cavity. ‘They were baked in individual plates under glass bells and served hot. The eggs for the main dish had been hard cooked, peeled and cut into slices. Sauted mushroom caps, slivers of green peppers, red peppers and canned peas were added to the rich white sauce. A trace of lemon juice was added just before they were served. Practically all the luncheon was pre- | pared and in double boiler or in oven | before guests arrived, so there was no last-minute flurry. Lois had learned three different ways of making cream sauce or white sauce. The first called for the double boiler throughout. The milk was heated in the upper part. butter in the proportion of one to four tablespoonfuls per cup of milk was added and then flour in proportion of one to three tablespoon- fuls per cup of milk stirred to a paste with cold milk was added. This mix- ture cooked for 40 minutes. The second method called for butter and flour mixed and browned in frying pan. Milk was then added. This gave a rich flavored but not so digestible a sauce. The third method called for four tablespoonfuls butter melted in frying pan. To_this were added three tablespoon- fuls flour. When mixture bubbled, one- half cup milk was added, the mixture stirred until thickening started, when remaining milk was put in. The sauce Was stirred until boiling. This was smooth, thick and rich. Fruit Salad. Dissolve two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in half a cupful of cold water,-one cup- ful of sugar in half a cupful of hot wa- ter, then add the gelatin to the sugar. Remove from the fire, add the juice of one lemon and one orange and turn into molds. If fruit is wanted, add cupful cold water, juice of one lemon.

Yet there | are other kinds of chowder. Fish, chowder, corn chowder, tomato chowder, vegetable chowder. A chowder is a soup with lots of vegetables in it, sometimes more iike a thin stew than a soup. It is eaten either in place of a soup, however, or as the main course of an informal meai, and it is eaten When we say Careful seasoning and careful cook- | ing are the factors that make chow- ders delicious. They are made of in- expensive foods, but the blending of flavors effected by cooking and sea- scning makes them equal to the most expensive foods. Chowders are specially to be thought of now, for they provide appetizing, nourishing meals at low cost. There are two kinds of chowder—made With milk and without it PFish chowder made with milk is about as nourishing a dish as you could want To make a good fish chowder, cut a pound and a half of cod, haddock or any large fish into small pieces. Re- move the bones and skin. Put it, with two cups of sliced raw potatoes and & cup of diced carrots, over the fire in a quart of water and cook for 15 minutes. In the meantime, fry a quar- ter pound of diced salt pork until crisp, remove from the fat, cook a chepped onion until golden brown in the fat and then add two tablespoon- s of flour and slowly pour in a pint milk, thickening smoothly.
