OF WOMEN

That old adage about well- groomed beads and well-shod feet and how they will make up" for! many deficiencies in the rest of the attire still holds good. In-i deed, these details are more im portant than ever, because the majority of women have become vo- much more particular about hair and hats that any carelessness becomes noticeable-in the wrong way.

All Sorts of Fittings

Shoe manufacturers of to-day can be congratulated in very many Instances. It is still dithcult to find fittings for excessively slender heels, but nat, as it used to be, impossible. The owners of formal feet can find almost anything they want, in all sorts of fittings.

Coloured shoes are more rarely seen in the day, time as compared with the summer months. Black and several tones of brown have taken their place. Although rome afternoon, models are still cut in very open shapes, they are entirely unsuitable for winter weather, and, therefore, much less at- tractive than the simpler types | which

Black shoes, of course, are for black clothes and sometimes" for grey anes. Brown, especially the

We should, therefore, ensure that there is a plentiful supply of this marvellous vitamin in our daily diet. While we do not yet know exactly what vitamins are, we do know in which foods they can be found. Vitamin A is often referred to as the fat-vitamin, be cause it is found in abundance in fats, Milk, egg-yolk, butter. liver,.fat of beef, and cod-liver oil are all sources of vitamin A. It is also found in carrots, spinach, apricots, bananas, melons, dates, prunes, and tomatoes.

Those, therefore, who are able to take much fat should see that their daily menu includes an abur- dance of some of these other foods which are rich in the vitamin. Even those children who cannot take cod-liver oil, or will not eat spinach, or do not readily drink milk, will usually quickly consume a fruit salad of bananas, dates, dried apricots, and granes, with plenty of butter on their bread. Thus will they be provided with a powerful weapon not only against influenza, but against any in- fectious disease.
