TAKE CARE OF YOUR FEET
This is the season when tired feet
take much of the joy out of life. And
apart from the discomfort, feet trou-
bles can so quickly play havoc with
one's face, because of the inevitable
worried frowns.
To bring relief to tired, aching
feet, bathe them in very hot water to
which you've added bath salts or ord-
inary table salt. Dry with a soft
towel, massage a little warm olive
oil into your feet, then dust with tal-
cum powder.
Corns and bunions are usually
caused by wearing badly -fitting foot-
wear, so be sure yours really Rt you.
Never buy shoes that taper to a sharp
point, for they cramp the toes and
develop corns.
If, unfortunately, you are already a
victim, you can get rid of corns eas-
ily and painlessly by using a good
two-way corn plaster.
For bunions, a little pad of cotton -
wool, worn between the first and sec-
ond toes, will often help.
Never cut your toe -nails down the
corners, as this causes ingrowing
tta.tls,
To strengthen your feet anti an-
kles: Place a strong book, about two
inches thick, on the floor. With bare
feat, stand on the book, letting your
feet overlap the book as far as the
bails of the feet. Now raise your
heels so that you are standing on
your toes on the book. Repeat sev-
eral times.
My new booklet on Beauty Care
contains much helpful information on
Feet Care, Hands, Face, Slimming,
Bust, Superfluous Flair, etc. Send
four one -cent stamps for your eopy,
and ask about your own beauty wor-
ries, too. Address: Miss Barbara

DWIGHT L. MOODY
To save souks he traveled ,pore than

a hundred million peopple, and person -
wily prayed and ,pleaded with 730,1100
sinnero. All in all, it is very 117 )haul"

Moody "reduced the popwlatien of 'hell
by a million souls,' Nex• t, J itiathan
Edwards, he is the most striking 'fig-
ure in American rehoiom,. hi,t,,ry.
But Moody cannot be understood
merely as a •reldgio•tts ,phenomenon.
Chance made .him au evangelist, but
the remained at heart 'a man of busin-
ess, He was to religion what Carnegie,
Rockefeller, Mongan and Wanaana+ker
were Ito their trades. He had their
egotism, (their yearning for tangible
sucess, their organizing genius, their
energy, 'their passion for power.
Moody was (born- fu 111837 into the
,family of a ,briclanason in Northfield,
Massachusetts. When he was four, his
father !died, and creditors carried away
even the stovewood 'wh'ich ,the widow
had hoped .to keep her nine children
warns. The family's early struggles
were heroic. There was not always
enough eo eat, and when Dwight vas
six he was ,driving cows to,pasture for
a cent a week. His education was
mteager, !p,artly 'because he had little
time for it, and ,partly ,because his
physical exuberance made study dis-
tasteful. When Joe deft school he ,could
do :simple SUMS and read words of toot
too many syllables, but he never
learned eo spell and his gramnter al-
ways hada liaup,
At seventeen he went to Boston. An
turele ,gave him a job in this shoe ,store,
and Dwight .almost instantly ,beta et
a 'prize cleric. "He ,w ntid never ,sit
down to ,ch'a't or read the paper as the
other ,clerks -dii," said one who kneyv
him at the tittle, "but as soon as he

By this time their cervica" were or-

In the old New York Hippodrome
they had '500. ushers ,and 11200 singers.
Moody unders'toad ass well 'as any pod-
iticani the value of publicity. Not only
did he advertise profusely and intelli-
gently, hut he had the ,knack of get-
thtg reporters on his side. Incidents
wlltich would have pews value. he re-
hearsed ,beforehand, and many 'occurr-
ences in iiia meetings 'which seemed
spontaneous were carefully planned.
"You, !brother, over tlhere 'by the
First 'window," he would say, "do you
dove the Lord 'and have some +testi-
mtony for him?" IOr "That redheaded
man on the ,b,eick seat, 'are you a
'Chri'stian?" As likely 'as not the'brotih•-
er had rehearsed his ,part -and was ful-
ly prepared with tears and testimony.
But sometime.. these direct appeals
were unpremeditated. for Moody had
no ba,hfuluess himself and no respect
for -it in others. He had the 'knack of
talking to 20,009 people and snaking
each one think that the words aimed
directly at him, Tough, 'indeed, was
the soul that .could resist the on-
slaught. One by one, Moody and Sart-
key attacked the .creat cities: Chicago,
Boston, Baltimore. tramplers, thieves,
murderers. detertiyes, even new's,pali-
er reporters, were 'bagged. There ara,s
n,, one in America ---perhaps. 100 one in
the civilized world—who did not know
who Dwight L. Moody was.
Meanwhile, returning to his early
home, he founded and maintained tate
'Northfield Seminary for Girls and the
\-Count Hermon School for Boys, open
to youngsters who 'otherwise would
have had no schooling. He developed,
and kept up a well equipped farm,
raising blooded stock. A few year's
dater he founded the Moody Bible
Institute in Chicago.
Though be {lived simply, he handled
millions of 'dollars. Like the lords of
copper, of iron, of railways and of
land, Moody was literally one of the
rulers of America. Toward the end ,his
influence dwindled a little. But he was
a lion to the 'last, and no man glared
cross him.
He +believers in 'hell, but he put more
emphasis on heaven: it was 11 .d.rcirri
rather than fear that he :t±,peel.'1 He
