speak.
Philander P. Claxton, United
States commissioner of education,
w ill he one of the speakers for the
education department on a special
program devoted to the subject of
the value of the kindergarten.
To make every penny buy some
thing that women really need and
want and to utilize it to the best
possible extent as though it were
money itself is the great message
that the thrift committee of the G.
K. W. C. is stressing in its spring
campaign.
The reorganization of the working
policy of the general federation is to
be worked out at this convention.
Mrs. Robert Burdctte of Pasadena,
Cal has arranged a plan and it was
approved by the executive board of
the organization. This plan will be
presented for approval at the con
vention in Des Moines.
Inquiries are being made repeat
edly concerning the housing of visit
ors to the convention who are not
delegates. All visitors will be
equally welcome and many rooms
will be accessible outside the hotels
as a moderate price of $1 per night
or $1.50 for night and breakfast.
These rooms are being listed by
the ways and means committee of
the Des Moines Federation of
Women's clubs and will be for the
most part in homes of club women.
Application for such rooms should
be made through the hotels com
mittee, Mrs. W. H. Snider, 900
Fleming building, chairman, and are
being offered not alone to Iowa
women, but to women from other
states as well.
The hotels committee regrets that

States who wishes to visit Des
Moines in June cannot be given "a

headquarters hotel," but those who
must go outside will be well cared
for and made most comfortable.

The chiropodists tell me they never
did a bigger business than they have"
been doing this spring. "These high
heels are a grand old thing for us,"
said one of these friends of the
troubled pedestrian. "My mail never
had so many calls for relief from the
woes of the footsore and weary as
the last few months have seen."
Costs Wrinkles and Pain.
High heels are the temptation of
temptations. No matter how nor
mally sized a woman's feet may be,
she would have them appear smaller.
And there's no denying that feet are
daintier appearing in a heel of the
above description; but what's the
use of acquiring the excessive dainti
ness at the cost of wrinkles and a
pained body and possibly distorted
feet.
If you want to be convinced of
what these heels actually do to the
feet, you might have an X-ray taken
af the foot in one and note the dis
placed bones and ligaments. Or a
simple home test: Take a block of
wood or pile up a couple of books
and set the heel at that height.
Isn't it rather ridiculous, when
you think of it, to send missionaries
to China to tell the heathen Chinee
how sinful it is to strap and bind
the feet of girls, when young women
of our own national persuasion
mince around on a pair of shoes
comparable in proportion?
Only Shoes to Blame.
The folly of it is that the troubles
are not the trifling ills of a mis
placed vanity. The general vigor
and general health are impared
when anything that interferes with
foot and leg ease is adopted.
In almost every instance foot
troubles have only shoes and one's
bad sense in the choice of them to
blame. They are responsible for
corns, callosities, jammed and
crowded toes, ingrowing toe nails,
flat feet, bunions, broken arches,
perspiring feet and cold feet, the lat
ter due to inability of the blood to
circulate freely.
The heel may vary from an inch
to an inch and a half, according to
the requirements of the feet around
the instep, and so long as it does not
develop into a high heel that does
not upset the rational center of grav
ity. "Tip" from the Axmy.
Now, for a few remedies for the
innumerable complaints suggested
by my. correspondence:

THE word "Profiteer" is pop
ular in theses days of high
prices. It is applied impartially, re
gardless of the true facts in the case. Laun
derers have been accused, in common with
other lines of business. Few stop to think
what the Launderers have to pay for labor,
supplies and service to. cust6mers, today,
against what they paid two years ago.
Take a few of the many items used in
Laundries, for instance: Soap cost 6c lb. in
1918, now 18c lb. Cotton sheeting 40c yd. in
1918, now $1.65 yd. Starch $3.50 per hundred
in 1918, now $10.00. Paper boxes $19.00 per
1 ,000 in 1918, now $34.00, and so on down the
line. The average increase since 1918 in the
price of supplies is 350. Labor, during the
same period, has increased over 100. Cost
of service, i. e., delivery, has increased more
than 100.
On the other hand, the prices of
laundry work have increased an
i. average of only 36 during the same
t period. In the light of these facts,
the launderers, assuredly, cannot be
r- accused of profiteering.
s Our experience is duplicated in every
home laundry. You, Mrs. Housekeeper, can
readily compare what it costs you for soap,
starch and other supplies two years ago with
what you pay now. Compare also what you
paid for labor then and now. Add to this the
annoyance, worry and care of the weekly
wash day and you will, agree it pays you in
time, money and pleasure, to

a frequent happening on adopting
low shoes is the army "tip" of rub
bing into the fiber of the stocking
at the heel a little castile soap or
other bland soap. This has been
found to be the best means of pre
venting friction. Incidentally, for
the "walker" this is a good "tip."
If you find that your foot muscles
or leg muscles ache after walking
or standing your arches are flatten
ing. If you take them in time you
may spare yourself much discom
fort and pain. Orthopedists use in
mild cases of broken arches a couple
of strips of adhesive plaster six or
seven inches long and bind the foot
at the instep, which serves to keep
the arches from spreading and flat
toning . out and, incidentally pro
vides' a certain degree of comfort.
After the warm bath at night plunge
the feet in cold water and rub them
briskly with a coarse towel. Then
exercise them for five minutes, ris
ing up and down on tip toe; then
(-iH;nf toes under the foot and rais
i n 'hem up and muter. Then stand
with big toes touching and raise
and lower the body alternately.
For Perspiring Feet.
A drying powder for the feet is
corn starch and boric acid, equal
parts, dusted over the feet and into
the shoes. Another simple remedy
is alum dusted on the feet. For
more serious cases of perspiring feet
bathe them night and morning,
changing stockings daily; then sup
ply freely a solution of alcohol and
salicylic acid in the proportions of
one quart of alcohol to one table
spoon of salicylic acid.
To help ease a tight shoe, dust
talcum powder inside the shoe.
For an inflamed bunion, a hot foot
bath, followed by a hot compress of
witch hazel, will afford relief. If
that is not sufficient to give relief,
paint the affected part with carbolic
acid, iodine, and glycerine two
diams of each.
In its early stages the displaced
joint may be worked back in place
with methodical manipulation of
the toe to strengthen the muscles
and bind it at night with a light
splint back into normal place. If
badly displaced an operation is ne
cessary.
Refreshing to Weary Feet.
An alcoholic rub will be found re
freshing to weary feet. If they are
swollen give them a foot bath in
which is dissolved one ounce of
alum, two ounces of rock salt, and
two ounces of borax.
For burning and itching feet wash
in boracic acid and dust witli bo
racic acid powder. Boracic acid, in
the main, is used in the advertised
remedies for feet troubles.
For calluses use a hand pumice
stone, rubbed vigorously after bath
ing the feet

The secret of keeping young Jr to feel

liver and bowels there's no need of
having a sallow complexion dark rings
under your eyes pimples a bilious
look in your face dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr: Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for 'calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.

To Banish Night-Made
Wrinkles in Morning
When cne gets up in the morning after
a troublesome, sleepless night, haggard
and worn, with the tell-tale lines and wrin
kles, and dark circles under the eyes, here's
the thing to quickly make one normal look
ing and presentable. Bathe the face in a
simple lotion made by dissolving an ounce
of powdered saxolite in a half pint of witch
hazel. Almost immediately there is a
wonderful transformation. One effect is to
tighten the skin and obliterate the wrin
kles and lines, likewise puffiness under the
eyes. The face looks and feels bright
and refreshed, as though insomnia's victim
had just awakened from a beauty sleep.
Any druggist can supply saxolite and
witch hazel, of course, and any woman can
easily make this harmless and splendid
facial rejuvenator.

Red Blood for Pale
People!
A big supply of red blood corpuscles is
what helps to make any man or woman
have a healthy, pink complexion and cherry
red lips. Resort to paint and powder are
totally unnecessary and besides that, are
harmful. Three-grain' hypo-nuclane tab
lets, if used regularly for several months,
seem to create a greatly added number of
millions to the red and white corpuscles of
the blood, and not only improve the color,
but add increased flesh to the thin and
frail body. These tablets promote assim
ilation, absorption and digestion, and this
splendid aid to nature's forces transforms
the complexion and figure. They are pre
scribed by physicians, but being of a per
fectly harmless character, self-administration
is being followed by many, who obtain
them direct from any well-stocked apothe
cary shop.
