If you start treating it soon enough you may cure it peimanently, and so ever afterwards with healthy comfortable feet Neglect it for a time and though you cute the corn temporarily, it will certainly come back to plague you. Those of you who are grown up have probably one or two such intermittent corns; the best we can do is to see that our younger brothers and sisters and our children fare better.

If a corn comes, you can be sure the shoes you are wearing most of the time don't fit. Pressure on the toes causes the corns, and nothing else-- unless you happen to be wearing a very badly fitting and roughly- darned stockings. Wear a corn pad until you can have the shoes stretched if they are tight; and when you buy a new pair, buy a different make and one that gives you more room. Remember though, that a too loose shoe can cause a corn as well as one that is too tight. Our shoes are being made better and better all the time, but we still fit our feet to them rather than the shoes to our feet.

The best you can do Is to avoid exaggerated pointed and high heel styles. To cure the corn, soak the feet in hot, soapy water 20 minutes, an jhave oft the swollen and softened lard layers of skin with a corn knife or a lazor blade, first dipped in peroxide to make it antiseptic. Shave only the hard skin and be careful not to cut yourself. Rub oil or cold :rea.m on the place at once, and take a corn file, which is a large emery- board made just for treating the feet, and rub off the yellow callous, skin under the soles of the feet and on the other toes. If the corn Isn't very big you can file it off instead of shaving it off.

A mixture of 2 drachms of flexible collodion and 15 grains of salicylic acid is excellent to paint over a corn to stop the pain. Joanna spot is one of those stubborn liver stains, and the best way to get rid of it Is have a skin specialist scatter it for you. If you have not tried a simple bleach yourself, you can do this first, and this should not be anything stronger than the juiees from vegetables or fruit. Cucumber or lemon Juice make simple bleaches Never experiment yourself with caustic bleaches, as you may scar yourself.

Operation Performed. Miss Kate Shaffer underwent an operation for appendicitis at the Granite City hospital yesterday for appendicitis. She is getting aloug as well as can be expected. Why Is it that most of us so very mind standing up on our feet inA talking? We all. with a few notable exceptions, one of which has been jretty much in the public eye for he last six years and bids fair to be somewhat longer, like to talk.

We like to be listened to when we are talking. If one person will listen without interrupting, well and good. If two or three people will hang on our words, well and better. Three Listeners Please, But SO Paralyze Why on earth is it, then, if you make our listeners 30 instead of three, put them in chairs while we stand on our feet in front of them, and then give us a chance to talk quite uninterrupted instead of being pleased we are paralyzed? There are few of us who have not had a dinner spoiled by the knowledge that we were part of the seventh course. Good food tasted like dust and ashes, we turned but half an ear to our neighbor's conversation while the other ear and a half was turned inward listening to our agonized rehearsal of our after-dinner speech.

Why on earth did we mind so? For fear we might make fools ol ourselves before a lot of people? I suppose so, but why should we fake fools of ourselves any more than we do in our daily unrehearsed speeches that we make with such perfect self- confidence and freedom from fear? We Want To Do Too Well I suppose it's Just another case of what we do in golf when we try too We are so anxious to speak super latively well that we press and get in our own way. It's an unfortunate handicap, and people are very wise who set them selves to overcoming it, tot in thesi days of clubs and rotarians and com munity gatherings of every kind the person who can stand on his fee nd speak without anguish to hlm- elf or those who listen, la a power the land. Of course the school can help, and ertainly tries to. Classes in which ach child has to get up and speak his own words about some ivent are common. But, oh.

how the youngsters do hate it, most of them! Mscussions in classes are becoming more and more common, but are usually monopolized by a few gifted and articulate ones, while the Inarticulate are carefully silent. Debating clubs, or a long time out of fashion, seem have come back strong. Just See How Silly It All Is All such practice is excellent, but what I think we need more than anything else is a common-sense attitude toward the whole thing, more realization of the absurdity of being afraid of an audience that individually we would talk to without fear. And let me give one final piece of advice, which comes from one knows how good it is because she hasn't followed it. That Is don't let yourself get started writing your speeches.

Write your headings and practice speaking from them. If you write your whole speech, you will either have to read It, which ts ungraceful, or try to memorize it, which is unpleasant. If you once write a speech down, you are always trying to remember what you have written. And if you once get started in this way you will find it almost impossible to change. Make your first speech from notes, and even If it is not as perfect a ferformance as if you had written and memorized it, you will win out in the end.
