Mr. W. B. Trethowan, who during the war was surgeon to one of the military orthopedic hospitals, lecturing "Healthy Feet" at the Institute of Hygiene last month, said it was impos- sible to find in a civilised adult a perfect foot-one of ideal shape, which would do its work properly and gracefully, and give no trouble. To keep the feet healthy it was necessary to catch them early and the most effective work for reform could be carried out by the provision of

Slight turning out of the toes was correct when standing easy, but in walk ing the feet should be kept parallel. With regard to heels, Mr. Trethowan' said, the Cuban was the most satisfactory i for general use, while the Louis heel was bad, on account of its curved mecha nient shape and inefficient support, and also because it weakened the whole sole of the shoe. Women Invoured high heels, and, while there was no doubt that some did so for purely cosmetic reasons, it was certain that the majority of women wore high heels as response to the relief afforded to the ligaments of the foot. Women, being humpered by skirts, could not get such freedom of movement in the hips as men were able to do, and; it might be from this cause that women. needed the more efficient support afford ed by heels. It was A universal and traditional idea that the majority of the troubles occurring in the feet were the evil results of the use of beets, but the anatomy and movements of the foot fully showed that the strain on the long arch must lessen in proportion as the heel was raised, and this was the experience of the vast majority of women, in spite of medical advice to the contrary.
