Care of the feet is of the utmost
• Importance' to health, The custom in
this 'and other so-called civilized:coun-
tries of erantping and binding the feet
in leather shoes has created' a real
"foot" problem. One cannot be sur-
prised at foot troubles when we know
that there are about twenty-seven
bones in each foot, and these are con-
nected up by ligaments, muscles, ten-
dons, ete., with a network of arteries
and nerves. -The- wonder is that the
pressure of shoes that are made often-
times to suit fashion rather than com-
fort, there is not even more foot
troubles than there actually is. One
of the first hints that there' is some-
thing wrong with the feet is brought
to the attention of the sufferer, by a
pain in the muscles of the leg. Some-
times this .pain takes the form .of a
cramp, sometimes of a dull pain, and
sometimes the muscles of the leg ,tire
easily; . the feet may burn or feel un-,
comfortable. "Whenever' any of these.
conditions oecur, something is wrong.
Away back in childhood the trouble
often begins. It is then that the bones
are somewhat soft and not properly
• calcified. Any pressure, squeezing. or
binding t?f the bones of the feet, there -
I fore, is.dasgerous in children and may
stead to life-long infirmity-
Our boasted civilization certainly
brings us little benefit ns far as foot
ease and, foot comfort are concerned.
In countries where the custoin is to
travel barefoot, one seldom, if ever,
sees any malformations of the feet.
Savages are wonderful walkers. As a
rule they could out -distance any white
man who'since childhood has had his
feet clamped up, and ,compressed in
leather shoes. Like practically every
other ailment of adult life the harm
begins in the early days of life. If
our varying weather permitted, every
child should be alIowed to run bare-
footed during nine months of the year.
His feet would thereby harden, and
the movement and freedom of the toes
would strengthen the feet and allow
the bones to grow in a natural way.
When boots have to be worn, care
should be taken to see where they
wear, both on soles and heels;so that
the mechanism of the feet can be
studied and if there is any deformity
to find whether the cause lies in the
foot itself or in the legs. •

Mr. F. A. Mitchell -Hedges has return-
ed to England. He visited, says the
London Times, every village and is-
land of the San Blas coast and perm -
lasted the little-known , Chucunaque
country. He describes the San Blas
Indians as an extraordinary people
and as pure in breed.
They live, he save, a'socialistic kind,
of lite, - One man grows bananas, an-
other grows plantains, and a third
grows cocoanuts. They exchange
their produce. If a house 15 to be
built, all;, the men,' including the chief,
share in the work. They suffer badly,
however, with smallpox, and their eyes
are affected by a tick that gets under
the lids.
I believe no white person before my-
self ever entered the Chucunaque
country. The people are about four
feet three inches in height, and the
women wear nose rings, They are all
simple and honest; they do not use
money, and they have no steel weap-
ons. They have. very big heads, very
broad shoulders and :are mostly bow-
legged, The women seem to be the
superior sex. The chief food is, a kind
of corn, plantains and bananas, which
are cooked unripe. They eat no flesh.
I did not see a four -legged creature in
the country. They like fish, however;
and they have a dish of pineapples,
pears and other things, whiclt{•are all•
boiled together in: a common li'ot,
The Inciiaus made idols of wood, and'
each these has its own special god. The
people believe that when they die they
enter.- a canoe and that their spirit
guides them until the river divides in-
to many 'streams, The spirit then
points to' the stream they are to fol-
low, and they are led to a comfortable
hut ina happy land.
Por burial the dead body is placed in
a hammock and •carried to a grave

"To be constantly commenting upon
the high death -rate teem cancer; with-
out taking into account the fact that
it is primarily a blood disease, is the,
height of folly, And when it has been
demonstrated -over and over again that
it is only by raising the blood to a
healthy standard, and retaining it
there, ' that cancer can be, and has
now, 1n lnnumenable instances; poen
cured, what possible ground can there
be for denying such a truth?" -.Medi-
cal Times, Lon. `
The late Dr. IPorbes Ross, of Lon-
don, Eng,, in 1912, preyed in the most
conclusivemanner that. -cancer is
caused by potassium deficiency. When
certain combined assimilable salts of
potassium have been administered to
far advanced and appareutly hope-
lessly incurable cancer patients, every'
one received narked benefit,' And
while . it may be conceded that the
small quantity of inedicinai assistance
given 1s imperative, the fact remains
that fully seventy per cent, of the
credit due to. every completely re-
stored cancer case belongs to the co7;-
rect diet taken.
It is of supreme importanoe to adapt
the diet so that it may supply those
organic salts contained ,in vegetables,
cereals and fruit, ,when in their natur-
al condition, combined with the living
principle -of- these products of the
vegetable kingdom, which are of vital
importance.
Cancer is an uncon, ciously sell -in-
flicted blood disease which, without
warning, on the most trifling provoca-
tion is liable to attack any adult read-
er who consistently adheres to the
generally aocepted diet of the civilized
world, The best proof of the truth of
this appailkug statement :arises franc
the fact tliot if individuals from un-
civilized, cancer -free races partake ot
European or American fare, they
speedily. become cancer -stricken,
There 10 no reason why cancer
should not be eliminated from this
country if the pubitc 1v111 exorcise cont-
mon;sense in the matter of its diet and
positively refuse to continue to des-
troy, in cooking, the organic salts in
'all vegetables, which are essential to
the continued eaeservation' of our
health, We must tidmit that we pay
much greater attention to the diet of
our animals than we do to our own. As
a• consequence, one hundred anti ten
thousand persons died from cancer on
this continent alone during 1922, and
this awful .mortality will be increased
in, 1923 unless we Ter021lt our mode of
living, We must Mee these unpleas-
ant facts.
Believing that every roan and wo-
man should personally help, to relieve
humanity from Its needless sufferings,
the writer has ptrinted.ancl copyrighted
a dietary upon which the eminent can-
cer authority, Dr. Robert Bell, oe Lon,
don,- England, has complimented him.
Fathers and mothers, adopting such
diet, will very speedily find that they
and their children are enjoying ,such
health es never before experienced;
that, consequently, doctors' bills don't
have to be paid, and no medicine is
wanted, and, lest but not least, a con-
