The shoe is the foundation of a woman's appear ance. If it does not fit well her health is ruined; if it does not look well her appearance is spoiled. Women spend fortunes on clothes and hats and lingerie, yet they al ways complain about paying too much for shoes. k As a matter of fact, they should first be well shod, and the rest of the wardrobe will take care of itself. Almost any one who has taste can get up a fairly attractive dress. Only a capable shoemaker can make a well-fitting shoe. American women have the best looking feet in ttoe world. They also understand the value of the low heeled shoe, but often choose a too masculine shape. The low-heeled shoe can be just as feminine as a high-heeled one, provided it is well built.' No matter how low the heel, the instep should fit snugly. For walking the low-heeled shoe is the only type permissible. For afternoon wear, graceful pumps of Colonial ties are the best. For evening wear there is no limit to the height of heels or the fancy of ma terials. Silks and velvets, brocades, precious stones, feathers every thing is acceptable, provided the slipper harmonize with the gown. For use .around the house a san dal that holds the feet in shape, yet yields sufficiently to allow it to rest, is ideal. ,, Only Woman Clown in Circus World Is With John Robinson Shows "Peanuts, mister?"

But he has even more than the ordinary man' helplessness concerning his clothing, and in a pronounced degree the masculine tendency to blame the woman most nearly associated with him for whatever goes wrong. For the 11th time I schooled my voice to pleasantness, though my nerves were jumping. I had grim ly resolved upon the morning of this last day before our journey south that I would not lose my self-control no matter what happened, and I had prepared myself for almost any eventuality. But sometimes it is the long hacking which is more effectual in breaking a stick than a sharp blow. When I had gone to Dickys room, after his last demand, and had found the cuff links he had lost, I was in no seraphic mood to listen to the abrupt words he flung at me as 1 turned to leave the room: "What's this I hear about dad get ting you a stateroom all to your self?" Of course, the words were perfect ly natural and inoffensive. But the tone made nie subtly feel that Dicky considered my father's action as a slight to the rest of the party. How ever, I tried to make my voice sound matter of fact as I replied: ''Your hearing is perfectly correct. Father did get me one. That leaves your mother one, and Maj. Grant land secured one for Mrs. Durkee." Dicky looked at me queerly, "Ye-es, so I've understood," he said dryly, and I wondered with a terri fied little qualm whether he, too, sus pected that the young officer had ob tained the drawing room for men, and that he had passed it on to Mrs. Durkee only upon my refusal of it. My father and my mother-in-law had both surmised the truth, and the fact that they had done so had troubled me with its hint that Maj. Grantland's feeling toward me had not escaped their notice. It was bad enough to be troubled and re morseful myself over the young offi cer's attitude without its being, a matter of comment to others. "While Ed ith" To Dicky's jealousy, unreasoning because of my own conduct and that of Maj. Grantland himself I had long been used, and I prepared my v mjct y If FITCH PERKINS ' Jj Irish Twins See the Tinker. They could see a woman moving about through the camp. She had a fire with a kettle hanging over it. There were two or three other peo ple about, and some starved-looking horses. The dog was lying beside the fire and-there was a baby rolling about on the ground. A little pig was tied by one hind leg to a thorn bush, "If the dog comes after us," said Larry, "I'll drop a stone on him, out of a tree, just the way the good son did in the story, and kill him dead." "But there' never a tree any where about," said Eileen. "Sure, that is no plan at all." "That's a true word," said Larry, when he had looked all about for a tree, and found none. "We'll have to think of something else." Then he thought and thought. "We might go back to Grannie's," he said after a while. "That would be no better," Eileen whispered, "for, surely, our Mother would go crazy with worrying if we What Do You Know? (Here'l a chance to make jonr frit" north money.

But to my surprise it was something far different which was the theme of Dicky's next speech. "Of course you're going to invite Rita Brown to share it." The implication which his words carried, that there was no other course possible, nettled me so I forgot for the instant that the thing he had proposed was the very course upon wnich I had myself decided. "Of course I will do no such thing," I retorted. "The devil you won't 1" Dicky's eyes flashed wrathfullj "Do you mean to tell me that you're going to travel in state while Ed ith and Leila are crowded in with Rita?" Madge Mimic Dicky. He had paused perceptibly be tween the syllables of Edith's name, and had finished it hurriedly because, I was sure, he was afraid that chang ing the order of his mention of the two sisters might attract my atten tion. It was the most unimportant trifle, and might well have been an accident, but I had noticed, simi lar trifles before, and. womap-like, I at once jumped to the -most mad dening solution of his request or rather demand. He was far more solicitous of Edith Fairfax's comfort than of mine. He could not bear that she should he inconvenienced. Far rather would he condemn me to the society of a girl whom he knew I detested. I felt rising in me a primitive Eersck impulse to vent my rage upon things generally, beginning with the sneering, handsome counte nance of my husband. I controlled this impulse, though it might have been better for both Dicky and me if I had given vent to the wild anger that shook me instead of confining the torrent under the ice with which I was able to coat it. "You will please pardon me," I said in my most frigid manner. "I had not realized how very much the comfort of Ed ith and Leila counted wifli you. I shall, of course, accede to your wishes and invite Miss Brown to share my stateroom, much as I detest her." I had purposely mimicked his hes itation, over Edith's name, and knew by Dicky's exclamation and his sud den movement toward me that I had scored savagely. Rut I went out-of the room, ignoring the fact that his exclamatory utterance of my name had seemed a protest of misunderstood motives, not of anger. (Continued Monday.) didn't come home, at all, and we al ready so late." '.'Well, then," Larry answered, "we mutt just abide here until it's dark, and creep by, the best way we can. Anyway, I've the piece of coal in my pocket, and Grannie said no harm would come to us at all, and we having it." Just then the man, who had been coming up the road, reached the camp. The dog ran out to meet him. barking joyfully. The man came ntar the fire and threw the bundle off his shoulder. It was two fat geese, with their legs tied together! "The Saint preserve us," whis pered Eileen, "if those aren't our own two geese I Do you see those black feathers in their wings?" "He's the thief of the world," said Larry. He forgot to be frightened be cause he was so angry, and he spoke right out loud! He stood up and shook his fist at the Tinker. His head showed over the top of the wall. Eileen jerked him down.' "Whit now, Larry i darling," she begged. "If the dog sees you once hell tar you to pieces." Larry dropped behind the wall again, and they watched the Tink er' wife loosen the string about the legs of the geese, and tie them by a long cord to the bush beside the lit tle pig. Then all the Tinker people gathered around the pot and began to eat their supper. . The babv and the dog were on the ground playing together. The Twins could hear the shouts of the baby, and the barks of the defe. It was quite dusk by this I time, but the moon grew brighter and brighter in the sky, and the flames of the Tinker's fire glowed more and more red, as the night came on. "Sure, it isn't going to get real dark at all," whispered Larrv. (Rights reserved by Houghton Mifflin Co.) Tomorrow Irish Twins Reach Home. was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme court.

THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1920. I'M THE GUY! I'M THE GUY who is ashamed to introduce his "poor relations." I've done pretty well myself and have a number of well-to-do acquaintances and I like to keep up a "front." If I introduce to them members of my family who don't dress in style, or know a lot people my friends know, or who are holding down jobs that are not as dignified as mine, or whose speech isn't a grammatical as mine, it might lower me in my friends' estimation. That they Haven't my brains, or WHY? Do Some People Freckle Easily? (Copyright. 1920, By Tha Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) The little brown spots on the skin which we call "freckles" are caused by the action of the sun's rays upon cells near the surface of the body, producing a yellowish-brown coloring sub stance or pigment which some times remains for a short time only and sometimes continues for years. Exposure to the un accustomed rays of the sun acts in diffrent ways upon different people. Those who are fair haired usually freckle slightly and then ta while brunettes those in' vvliicii the coloring mat ter is sharply defined get quite brown almost without freckling. The pigment contained in 'the bodies of persons with red hair, however, appears to be peculiarly sensitive and produces freckles when even slightly exposed to the action of the sun's rays. It is for this reason that red hair and freckles so often go together, even in winter when the sunlight is least strong. The appearance oT freckles up on the shoulders, generally noted ipon those who have worn scanty bathing suits in the sum mer, is due to the fact that this portion of the body is usually, covered and protected and is therefore quit apt to be tender, i The heat of the sun, which only tans the face and hands, acts more radically upon the pigment-cells of the shoulders and produces a generous crop of freckles, which in time, may merge into a stinging blistering coat of sunburn.
