PROPER CARE OF •THE FEET
(By Anne Jordan)
There is really no /excuse for a
corn. It comes from wearing ill-fit-
ting shoes. Children have no corns,
because kids are too close to nature
to affect shoes that hurt, no .matter
how attractive they look:'.
Wearing shoes too small is a ridic-
ulous mistake. You can't do like Cin-
derella's sisters and slice off part of
your feet. A .woman will cramp a
No. 6 foot into a No. 4 shoeand beam
delightedly at her foot in the miror.
All the time she's about as happy as
the Spartan boy on whose chest the
fox whetted his teeth. She's a sport
about anything she thinks makes her
look better. When a man's feet hurt
he'll dither limp outright or he'll walk
with his toes turned up. But the on-
ly way, you can tell a woman's feet
htirt is a certain little drawn line.
about her mouth.
Fairy -footed females areas passe
as the bussle. .Women use their feet
to walk : on, not for men to write
poems about, and a good strong foot
deserves a . comfortable shoe. So if
your feet are aching and you've a
weather prophet on your toe that
shrieks electricity every time it's
about to rain, change the size of
your shoes -get :them bigger and bet-
ter, get your money's worth of shoe
leather and give your "feet a chance
to rest.
And in the meantime, to get your
feet back to normal, soak them each
night in a warm solution of Epsom.
salts, Put about a table -spoon of Ep-
som salts to a quart of very warm
water and soak until the water cools.
For a corn, ptit some Epsom salts on
a damp tag and tie around the toe
and leave over night. In the mnore.
ing soften the corn by rubbing it with
camphor ice. If you continue this a
short time and wear shoes that really
fit, all your foot roubles will be over,

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Bruit stains on tablecloths should
not be allowed to dry in. As soon as
the accident happens stretch the
stained part of the cloth over a basin
and pour boiling water through until
the stain disappears.
Glycerine will remove tea or coffee
stains from white or colored linen.
Apply with a soft, clean cloth, leave
for an hour or so, then wash the ar-
ticle in the usual way.
'Use a lather of warm water, a few
drops of ammonia and a soft brush
for cleaning cut and moulded glass.
Rinse well in clear coldwater before
drying.
When sewing on buttons that will
have a •strain on them, put a piece of
an old kid glove under, the material
to which the button is sewn,
FAVORITE HYMNS
Hiding in Thee
Oh, safe to the Rock that is higher
than I,
My soul in its conflicts and sorrows
would fly;
So sinful, so weary, Thine, Thine
would I be;
Thoti blest "Rock of Ages," I'ni hid-
ing in Thee.
Hiding in Thee, hiding in Thee,
Thou blest. "Rock of Ages," I'm
hiding in Thee.
In the calm of the noontide, in sor-
row's :lone hour,
In times when temptation casts o'er
me its power;
In the tempests of life, on its wide,
heaving sea,
Thou blest "Rock of Ages," I'm hid-
ing in Thee.
How oft in the conflict, when pressed
by the foe,
I have fled to my refuge and breath-
ed, out my woe;
How often when trials like sea -billows
roll,
Have I Bidden in Thee, 0 Thou Rock
of my soul.

Of all the many hymns Ira . D.
Sankey composed tunes for or sang
into popularity, this simple one was
his •favorite, the one he asked to have
printed at theend of the story of
his life he was dictating to his sec-
retary , shortly before he ` passed
away, a worn-out, blind, contentedly
happy man.
The words were by the Reverend
4Villiasn Orcutt Cushing, author of
"When He Cometh," "Ring the Bells
of Heaven," "Down it the Valley
With my Saviour I Would Go," and
other hymns, Mr. Cushing was. a New
Englander, born at Hingham, Mass.,
in t823, and most of his hymns case
out of his own personal experiences
or feelings.
This one was, however, written to
order, as it were.' Mr. Cushing' says;
',Hiding in Thee' was written in
Moravia, N:Y., in 1876. It roust be
said�of this hymn that it was
theout-
growth
u -growth of many tears, many heart-
conflicts and soul -yearnings, of which
the world can know noticing, The
history of many battles is behind it,"
"But the. occasion ;which gave it be-
ing was , the call of Mr. Sankey. He
said; 'Send me something new to help
me in my Gospel work!'
"A call from such a source, and for
such a purpose,' seemed a call from.
God, T so regarded it, and prayed;
'Lord, give me sotn.ething that may
glorify Thee.' It was while thus wait-
ing that `Hiding in Thee' pressed to
make itself known. Mr; Sankey com-
posed the tune, and by his genius gave
the hymn wings, making.it useful in
the Master's work."
It was while being .entertained at a
private house in Edinburgh, Scotland,
that Mr. Sankey says; "I wrote the
music of my f?,rsi qpsnel song." He
had already. wan; to prgminenee in
tl,q, T'34te51States, as a singing ,evan-
gelist, and was then, in 1873, on, his
:first visit to, Europe, where. the IVdP.odY,
and Sankey ell tiiigs grew from art
attendance at York of fifty persons
to great audience$ Of twenty thous-
and, at the Agricultural all, London.
There was some magnetic influence
about these two earnest men which
drew men, and trade theism susceptible
to their .words: r r '' r:
For example, Mr. Sankey' tells us
in his autiibiography: "While holding
meetings at Burdett Road, London,
in 1874, Mr. Moody and I one Satur-
day took a drive out to Epping For-
est. There we visited a gipsy camp.
While stopping to speak to two bro-
thers who had been converted and
were doing good missionary work, a
few young gipsy lads came up to our
carriage. I put my hand on the head
of one of than and said: ''fay the
Lord make a preacher of your, my
,
boy,
"Fifteen years later, when Gipsy
Smith made his visit to America, I
had the pleasure of taking him for a
drive 'in Brooklyn, While passing
through Prospect P.arl:, he: asked me,
"Do you remember driving .out
from I.,ondon one day to a gipsy camp
at Epping Forest?' I replied that 1
did.
""'Do you remember a little gipsy
boy standing by your carriage,' he
asked again, 'and you put your hand.
on his head saying that you hoped
hewould be a preached?'
"'Yes, I remember it very well.'
"'I am that boy,' said Gipsy Smith.
"My surprise can .better be imagin-
ed than deseribed. ,, Little had I
thought that the successful evangelist
and fine Gospel singer o {whose' I
had 'heard so much, and whom I had
so much admired, wasthe little boy
I had, met in the gypsy camp. Truly.
God has granted my wish of fifteen
years before, and has made a mighty
preacher of the gipsy boy,"
Thousands we're influenced by~ his*
preaching and singing;•and Mr. Sank-
ey's evangelistic work it still going
6n through the Gospel songs he cum
posed or sang into popularity.
