■ — la®Kink! Worse yet, they eat sandwiches by thousands! “Who can associate love and sandwiches?" demands Gaston, whose last name is Thierry. He is chef at a leading hotel here. A love menu should be light. Gaston suggests as an ideal for the aftertheatre dinner a grapefruit supreme lobster a la Americaine and some celery and olives. Nothing more. Otto Wtelti, another prominent chef, gives first aid to the loverlorn like this: "The repast correctly ordered Is love's greatest asset. If the man is a bit dull, black coatee will increase his attentiveness. There is the danger that' coffee will make him restless. If this is the case he should dance. Some sort of bin! generally make? a gobd love food. Light, flaky pastries often bring happy results." Over-eating takes' the sparke out of conversation, Otto declared. “But that greatest aid to love —it is gone. It was champagne." o G. E. Dance, Masonic hall, Wednesday evening.

PROTECT YOUR HEALTH Stories Dealing With Care Os The Body And Treatment Of'Diseases (By Benj. F. Beavers, M. D )

V — | ■_ FEET AND SHOES Often, people will have pains In the . back and aching of the muscles of the legs when nothing else is wrong but their feet. They may have some . degree of "flat foot," or they may be , on their feet for long periods of time during the day, always standing in an improper position, or they may wear the wrong kiud of shoes. Weak feet, flat feet, etc. are feet in which the weight bearing is thrown to one side of the foot, to a few group ( of muscles in the leg, when all the ' muscles in the leg should aid in bearing the weight of the Ugdy. The arches may be "broken dtwn” but not necessarily so, A flat footed indi--1 vidual walks with ills toes turned outward. This in itself throws the! weight of the body on one group of J muscles, and as a result he becomes easily tired. If one will try to stand 1 for a long period of time with the toes turned outward, he will soon see s howl much more quickly he will become fatigued than if he points the toes straight ahead or inwards. , Shoes are made more for looks r than for comfort. High heels and; t pointed toes throw the weight of the body at the wrong place, and people who wear such shoes at work become tired quickly, if a great part of their work is standing or walking.
