How Ballet Artist* are Pedally En
dowed.
fheTIptoe Feat aad Its Agony—The Ballet Ban
ter Must Eternally Exercise la Order to Excel.
Krerythiig Depends on the Toes,
Perhaps, however beautiful a ballet dan
cer may be, says the New York Journal,
however celebrated her name, no matter
how much salary she gets, whatever may
be the amount of national fame she may
have attained, he toes still trouble her. It
la always a question how long they will
last with her. She inures her limbs to
hard work and they become in time as
•orid as iron. The supleness of her frame
develops with exercise—and the exercise
la continual, for she must, to keep in good
trim, go through her lesson every day for
two or three hours. A rest of even a
week makes her so stiff that it takes
months to remedy it.
But the toes do not improve with exer
cise. They rather grow more tender and
the more robust the other portions of her
frame become tho more suspicious of her
toes docs she become. How exquisite i.
the pain that a premiere sometimes suffers
when lighting on her toes and pirouetting
on them for five minutes at a time in a
grand ballet no description can com pas-:.
With a broad smile she waddles down to
the footlights on their very tips, perhaps
and her face expresses nothing but the
most ecstatic satisfaction. But watch her
when she comes oft, listen to her groans
of p ain, notice her real distress.
To be sure, this is not the case in every
ballet nor every dancer. But it is com
mon enough to be accepted asaregu'ur
thing at which nobody is surprised. The
ballet over, the premiere rushes to her
room and bathes her feet in cold water, it
assauges the pain and makes the toes
more solid for tile next time.
The toes of a ballot dancer really
rest in a species of stuffed glove.
The point of the slipper she wears is more
than an inch broad at its shallowest por
tion, so that when she falls on the tips
of the big toe, apparently, she rests on a
Sort of cushion. Nevertheless toe aud
ankle have to support the entire weight of
the body, and only well organized women
can stand it for any length of time.
Marie Bonfanti was long considered to
have the best toe in tho business. Her
fame was made by the toe movement. This
style was afterward despised by the advo
cates of the high school of daucing, but
after a while there came about a
combination of heel mil toe that suited all
P arties. Of the latter sort Cavalazzi, the
eauliful dancer who has so loner been
identified with the Italian opera, and who
is now the principal danseuse of the Met
ropolitan Opera House, and Mine. Comal
ba Morolli, who travels with various
troupes on the road, are t he best existing
exponents. Botli these ladies are enthu
siastic devotees of their art.
Nor is their life a picnic by auy means
Neither of them passes a day that at least
three or four hours are not given to study.
Mine. Cavalazzi is given t lie stage of the
Metropolitan from 9 to 11 every day, and
the work she does in that, time would
wear out a professional walker. Strange
to say, Mme. Cavalazzi, who is the wife of
the Right Hon. Charles Maplcsou, pos
sesses a pretty foot, something almost un
paralleled in a dancer, but, as she suyj her
self, it is only through keeping down her
weight. When her weight increases then
her toes go to pieces.
It is amazing the care these people be
stow on their feet, the soiliilous industry
with which they pare aad bathe and
nurse a mem er that is almost universally
neglected. . .....
“TLielagony of dancing when the feet.are
not in proper condition,” said a premiere
yesterday to the writer, "no one can have
anv conception of hut the one wboy' .-.i
through it. The pain of a very tight so •
is excruciating, is it not? Multiply mat.
by one thousand forthe time a danseuse is
on the stage, and you have some idea ai
her feelings. Fortunately it only lasts a
short time. If it were to last long, she
would die of agony.”
From which one may gather t-att.ie, e
is no such agony as a sore toe in the bal
let. , j,

she went on; “Dear, this is death, and it
is far, far lovelier than life.” And, as the
golden head sank back upon the pillows,
she had faded away and tho blue eyes
closed to open no more on earthly scenes.
I will only add that she had never been
told of the passing away of her “darling

on his abdomen, thus explains to papa
what were his sensations when mamma
found it necessary to rebuke him very
sharply: “It made the feel-budly come oil

A QUESTION OF PEDIGREE.
Boston Record.
Little Mabel, five years old, is not so
young but that she has picked up some
knowledge of the ways of the world. She
said to her mother the other day,after a fit
of deep musing; “Say, mamma, who was
papa before he married us, any way?”
“Who was papa? Why, he. was the same
man that he is now.” “Yes; but what
was he to you? Was ho just a man that
you mashed?”

Mrs. de Perkins gives the little boy a lot
of soft candy, knowing that he will smeer
it on his mamma’s cream-colored satin
dress, bids mamma good-day affectionate

dollar at tho Sunday-school service at the
Methodist Episcopal Church in Tyrone,

afterward: “I didn't want to give it to

Chicago News.
-Master Stuart Robinson Crane, the five
year-old son of the popular comedian, is
evidently a precocious youth. At a mati
nee in St. Louis last week he was much
interested ia the appearance of a fashion
ably dressed beau who lolled lazily into
the theatre aud meandered with a minc
ing goose tread down the aisle of the par
quet.
“Oh, mamma—look—see quick! What’s
cl.it?” eagerly asked Master Crane, poking
violently at his mother and pointing the
other chubby hand at. the nobby stranger.
Mrs. Crane answered: “What’s that?
Why, that’s a dude, my dear ”
“,V dude! What’s a dude, mamma? Who
made a dude, mamma?” inquired the
child, Lis big blue eyes wide open and his
little mouth agape.
“Why, Cod, of course—God made the
dude, Robby,” said Mrs. Crane, quietly.
The little Yellow remained silent a few
moments, looking intently nil the while at
the dude. Then ho turned to his mother
and said in a confidential tone: -‘Say,
mamma, Dod iik.es to have fun sometimes,
doesn’t lie?”

Going out in the ear the other day I saw
a hri-’ht little miss of my acquaintance
with a library book in her daintily gloved
hand, and noticing the title was that of a
rather abstruse subject, I said: “Why, my
dear, you select very deep literature for
your reading; I had no idea you were so
studious.” She answered; “Oh, is it?
well, I did not know what to get, and so
