Philosophers tell you there is no sense in worrying. Neither is there any sense in loafing or over-eating or spending evenings in profitless em- ployment. However all these things people do, whether there is any sense in them or not. As to worry, it is probably true that it kills far more people than work ever does. But what is to be done about it?

The difference then between a flat weak foot and a normal foot is that, the arch does not rest on the floor and the foot has enough “spring" to bring the individual from his kneesi (both knees at the same time) with-' out other help.

However it must be admitted that there are some cases where the arch is well off the ground and the indi- vidual can come up from his knees without help, yet the feet get very tired with the ordinary amount of walking.

Your doctor will tell you that while arch supports may be neces- sary as a last resort, the majority of cases of weak painful or fiat. feet can be strengthened by regular exercise and so preserve the natural spring of the body that walking is the pleasure it was meant to be.
