There is nothing more refresh- ing or strengthening to tender feet than a salt water bath. Put a good handful oi ordinary salt in a t'oot- bath of warm waiter and soak the feet iu it for ten minutes. - ‘Then dry them and massage the instep and sole-s with the paints of the 118111111. which should first be sprink- led with a little boric powder.

When the feet are extremely ten- der u most soothing bath can be made by adding an ounce of pow- dered borax to two quarts of cold water and, when dissolved, sut'fic-‘ ient warm water to take the chill off. Soak the feet in this for five to ten luinutes, dry by rubbing briskly with a soft towel and dust with powdered fuller’s earth. Ei-til- er of these baths given regularly every night for a couple of weeks at. the beginning of‘ the summer will do lllucll towards strengthen- ing the feet and preventing incon- venience later on.
