The Herald, 1903-10-23, Page 6EtVILs Or 116H C SHOES, Tbiey.Ntit Only Cause Deformation of the .)Peet, but Nervous !Exhaustion. Women are prone to extremes at taislliou. A few years ago every one o,f them wore tight corsets ; to -day they all wear tight shoes. While it inert to be the custom to cut the iiitat,y lace of a fainting woman, now- adays the best restorative lies in severing her shoestrings. Lacing her shoes too tight, wearing shoes too high in the heel and. too narrow in the toe, blase are the charges brought against the modern woman. In tbe wake of these evils follow ner- vous troubles ; chronic dyspepsia, and spinal neuralgia. Circulation in the extremities is interfered with and thereby) the ,stomach and heart ac- tion. The process of restoring "shoe marred" feet is one of the most im- portant bits of knowledge possessed by the chiropodist. In the first place the bruised and cramped extremities are given a bath in strong rock salt, They are then encased in thin stock- ings of pure wool, and in broad in- valid shoes made of soft kid. The 'next stage of treatment is that of putting on them digitated stockings, or those having separate pockets for the toes, like glove tin - gens. ''hoes with a separate com- partment for the great toe are also used to aid in rectieeing the irregular ,shape of the foot, resulting from too much cramping. The daily massage is an important point, and the pati- ent must practice toe and heel ex- ercises every,' morning if she wishes to regain the prehensile faculty. The wearing of fine woolen base, and preferably, shoes of suede, is prescribed by the foot specialist. Patent leather must be discarded, as its nonporous character prevents the evaporation o1 moisture, and it has a. superior tendency toward the cul- tivation of corns. Digitated Hosiery made of silk, lisle and wool is worn 'by. many women for the purpose of retaining the natur- al beauty Of the foot who do not resort 'to the chiropodist. airs. ivayback's Inartistic Eye.

One of the Guardia Nobile (the Topes noble guard) told me that in the year 1889 he was on duty in the Pope's antechamber the night after the dedication of the statute of Giordano Bruno—a, renegade Do- minican, or a great reformer,. ac- cording to your politics—on the the very spot where in 1600 he was burned at the stake for heresy. The Pope was much offended, felt the church had been insulted ; there was even talk of removing the seat of the papacy from Rome. That plan, if it ever was seriously con- sidered, was spore given up. The whole matter had agitated the Popo tremendously, and they felt anxi- ous about his hlealth. When the usual hour passed for his light to be put out they grew more and more nervous. Eleven, 12, 1 o'clock, still that thin line of light under the door. Finally they knocked. No answer. They gently opened the door and saw, the old man kneeling weeping at his priedieu.

"No" is a hard word, but one may sometimes be made ridiculous by a reluctance to utter it, says an exeba,nge. A certain man who find this habit was bnce met by two ladies who had been discussing the peculiarity and ono of them said that she was posi- tive she could make him say "011, no," flatly. So she addressed him thus: "Let me see, Mr. Smith, you are a widower, are you not ?" "As much a widower, madam," he answered, with a polite inclination of his head, "as it is possible for a man to be who has never married.". The lady had to own herself beaten.

WAS INCURABLE BUT IS GRED Joseph Boone at Work Again After Seven Years illness Discharged from the Hospital as In- curable, he llsed Dodd's Kidney Pills with Spleltdid Results. Cottle's Cove, New Eley, Nfld., Oct. 19.—(,special).—After being for seven years a hopeless invalid, un- able to work, and racked by aches and pains, Joseph Boone, of this place, is back at his old work as a fisherman. It sounds like a miracle, but it is not—it was Kidney Disease was the matter with him. Dodd's Kid- ney Pills cured him. "It is something worth relating what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done. for me," says Mr. Boone, "and I am glad to tell it. I had doctored with several doctors, and after seven months in the hospital was sent home as incurable. "Richard Quirk, who had been cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills, advised me to try thein, and I did. I took 21 boxes before I was able to go to work., But I can hardly believe it is my- self 15 in it at all after all those years of suffering." Dodd's Kidney Pills never fail to cure all forms of Kidney Disease from Backache to Bright's Disease. Thou- sands of cured will tell you so. t Something New. Toronto Globe.

There is a. kind of acacia tree In Nevada that not only is as "touchy" as the sensltive plant, but as a gardener put it, "goes very mad." It is abpu't '8 feet tall and is a, very rapid grower. When the sun sets it is ready to go to sleep, and shuts its Ieaves together and coils the ends of its twigs just like a pig's tail. If any one pulls that tail—well, the tree doesn't squeal, but it fluttters and moves uneasi- ly and seems to be deeply agitated. If it is ever disturbed by a shock such as transplanting, the leaves stand out in all directions and quiver violently. Strangest of all, they send out a pungent, nauseat- ing odor that is most unpleasant. It takes this bad-tempered tree an hour or two to got back into good humor. 6dt Dis6ds Most Sudden and Dangerous of Ailments. Dr. Agnew's Heart Cure Relieves In 30 Minutes.

Any device, an the`othor hand, which will make one take, sleep, long breathe spontaneously (the invariable fore- runner of sleep) may be counted upon as a genuine remedy for insomnia. Even seep breathing whLdi is forced is better than a,ny purely mental at- tempt to win sleep. But if the deep brew.tiling can be produced involun- tarily one is sure of a passport to Nodland. After several nights of experiment to this end the present writer de- cided to apply the principle adopted by the earasseurs, who begin their en,antiipulationO "at: the point fa,r- thcs't from the Geist of difficulty," which, in the case of insomuia, would b:: the 'feet.

The pedaling .should keep time with the natura,l rhythm of respiration, and b continued until it is followed by deep and spontaneous breathing. Several aeeople wilo have tried the remedy {report that invariably deep. breathing invariably begins before they have pedalled up and down a dozen times.

The treatment may also ba varied by moving the feet alternately, instead of simul- taneously, though the latter method hats proved the more speedily effica- ciouls in the cases known to the writer.

One result of th'e Chinese out- break, so far as Birmingham is concerned, says Tit Bits, is that the manufacture of Chinese deities is falling off. Mese manufactories turn out gods of all sorts and sizes. Some are gods of war, Judg- ing by their stern looks and mur- derous swords; another, with a blanc] look, is a god of peace; othl- ers bear 'hideous leers. All are thor- oighly Chinese in character nad expression. An enterprising Bir- mingham manufacturer is said to be prepared to supply to order all sorts of gods at varying prices.

The Darwinian theory has recent- ly received more tangible support in the Gaya District, where an in- fant has 'been discovered who' is possessed of a tail. The ease is reported to the Indian Medical Ga- zette by Capt. Chatterton, I. M. S., and the infant is apparently caus- ing a. sensation, hand may in time,' for aught that can be saki, be wor- shipped as the god Hanuman, the monkey god come back to earth. Capt. Chatterton describes this curious child as follows "The child had what appeared to be a tail. I made the following note at 'the time. Tih'e spine is ap- parently perfectly normal. Over the base of the sacrum. is a brawny swelling, from the lower portion of which' emerges a perfectly skin - cover, tail-liko appendage, about three and a half inches Long. Tills appendage is capable of a limited amount of motion. It wags slightly when the infant takes the breast. There is no evidence of any bone in this 'tail." It feels tough) and elastic. It appears to be connected by soft attacllrnents to th'o sacruan. The tip of the coccyx can be felt 'id its normal situation, under cover of the `tail.' All the other parts of this 'baby were noirmal. The parents absolutely refuse to enter- tain the idea of hfaving the tail re- moved. The reason is,: I think, that the fame of the baby has already begun to spread. and X have no doubt that, by Judicious manage- ment, It will prove a source of in» come of It iparents."--Amrita Eaxar Patrialo, UNLIG1IT O i EDVcEs iriP EXi ENSE $5,000 Reward` will be paid by 9 Lever Brothers Limited, Toronto, to any person who can prove 'that this soap contains any form of adulteration whatsoever, or contains any injurious chemicals.
