ilka on<> of thow foolish superstitions,
but tt isn't a superstition, because the
person who wears the shoes out even
ly, In the middle of the sole, has a firm,
well balanced step, and there is noth
ing slipshod or lazy about such a per
son.
A Correct Proverb.
I "A person like that is bound to have
an upright, even character, and to be
tnergetlc nnd persevering. Os course,
I all those things mean that he will get
■ rich if he tries to, so the proverb is
| perfectly correct.
"The undecided person doesn't accu
mulate money 90 fast, and there is
nothing that shows so plainly in old
shoes as indecision. These shoes are
partly worn out on either aide of the
heel because the person stands first on
one foot ami then on the other, bal
ancing the weight unevenly, sometimes
on the Inner side of the sole and some
times on the outside of the sole. Shoes
like that are very hard to patch, and
the undecided person is almost always
extra vaga nt.
"You <an always toll a slovenly per
son by his shoes, for they will be down
at the heel, badly polished, with laces
or buttons In disorder.
"Os course, the girl who is very vain
still pinches her feet and wears shoes
that are too small for her, and any
shoemaker who gets a worn pair of
shoes of this kind in his hands could
tell right away that he had to deal with
a young person who hadn’t yet got
brains enough to know that she must
be comfortably shod If she wants to be
ha ppy.
“Comparatively few women wear
shoes too smalt for them nowadays. The

Dinner Party for
Governor-Elect
Slaton
A miniature lake, from which arose a
fountain which sent sprays of water
playing over banks of fern, starred with
clusters of pink and lavender asters,
was the central decoration for a bril
liant dinner party tendered Governor
elect John Marshall Slaton and Mrs.
Slaton Saturday evening by Mr. and
Mr« Robert I'. Maddox.
About the outer edge of the miniature
lake were set tall silver vases of pink
and lavender flowers, alternating with
silver candlesticks shaded in pink and
crystal. The silver platters used in
serving the courses were bordered with
j pink and lavender blossoms and banked
| on mantel, buffet and sideboards w ere
I gorgeous blossoms from the gardens of
i the country estate of Mr. and Mrs.
Maddox, where the dinner was given.
Covers wi :e laid for I'l, the place cards
bearing the monogram of the hostess
and the name of the guest In gold.
After dinner coffee was served in the
Italian palm loom a handsome apart
ment finished in Italian marble, with a
fern-bordered fountain in the < enter
j and bay trees standing about.

CHIEF ROWAN BETTER.

better class'of women don't seem ti
mind how large their feet are and van
ity is still confined to very ignorant
young girls who will soon learn better.
"You wear your shoes out much
sooner by standing on them In an awk
ward way than if you stood and walked
in a well balanced and graceful man
ner.
“People are heavy on their feet very
often because they are depressed and
low-spirited; th* minute they are hap
pier the tread becomes light and buoy
ant again, so you see that I not only
judge character; I could almost tell
your fortune by looking at your old
shoes."
Was Beneficial.
Since this conversation with the old
shoemaker I have taken great pains to
notice how my shoes were wearing out,
and I'm glad to say that I’m beginning
to wear them out in the right place,
just under th* ball of the foot, and the
down-trodden heels no longer worry
me.
I had to learn to walk all over again,
but 1 think it is worth while. I taught
myself to walk gracefully by badlanc
ing a number of books, piled up on my
head, while I was walking to and fro
in my room.
If you do this you have to swing the
legs free from the hip, and hold the
upper part of the body erect and well
poised. That is all there is to graceful
walking, as 1 suppose every one knows
that they should step on the ball of the
foot first, and not on the heel.
Another thing which most girls for
get is to keep their arms still and not
swing them to and fro, which is most
awkward when you have long arms.

HOW FIRST FELT
HAT MS MADE
John B. Stetson, to Entertain
and Convince Friends, Made
Novel Experiment.
Elbert Hubbard, in his “Little Jour
ney to the Home of John B. Stetson,”
relates the following story which tells
how Mr. Stetson Illustrated many years
ago the methods of felting the fur.
which is the first process In the manu
facture of either a stiff or soft felt hat.
It is th* basis of hat making
The thing that Stetson explained to
his friends was something they had
never heard of. and at once it caused a
big argument. Things people have
never heard of they usually denounce
as impossible. And while they are
saying that this thing can never- be
done, some fellow Just goes ahead and
does it!
The question turned on getting cloth
for shelter tents. One man made the
flat, dogmatic statement that cloth was
made by weaving, and that it could not
be made in any other way. Stetson
explained that there was another
scheme for making cloth. Stetson ex
pounded to them the science of felting.
Stetson took some of th* skins that
his friends collected, sharpened up his
hatchet on a convenient stone and
ehaved the fur off the skins.
Taking Fur From Skin.
He then cut a bit of a hickory sap
ling. sliced off a thong from one of the
skin* and made a hunter's bow With
this bow he agitated the fur so as to
keep it in a regular little cloud in the
air.
Stetson kept the fur in the air, and
then it fell gently by its own weight,
and was very naturally distributed over
a certain space. As it fell, Stetson,
with a mouthful of water after the
manner of John Chinaman, blew a fine
pray of moisture through the fur. Soon
here was a mat of fur that could be
lifted up and rolled. It was like a thin
sheet of wet paper.
There was a camp fire near, and a
pot of boiling water, and into this boil
ing water Stetson dipped his sheet of
matted fur.
It organ to shrink.
By manipulating it with his hand and
rapidly dipping It in the hot water, he
soon had a little blanket, woven soft
and even of perfect cloth. The argu
ment that the thing could not be done
faded away into nothingness Nobody
said, “I told you so!"
Then He Made a Hat.
There was the actual thing—cloth
made by the felting process—one of the
oldest devices of the human mind.
To*amuse his friends Stetson made a
hat out of the felt. It was big and pic
turesque. It protected the wearer from
the wind and rain, as well as from the
scorching sun. Besides all this, it at
tracted considerable attention. It made
the wearer the object of envy, ridicule
or admiration, as the case may be.
This was the first genuine Stetson
hat made and sold.
That it would eventually lead up to a
great industry, no one guessed; but it
was the germ of an enterprise that wa»
to be world-wide in its influence.

Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invig

ing and falling hair.
But what will please you most will
be after a few weeks' use when you
will actually see new hair—fine and
downy at first—y^s—but really new
hair grow ing all over the scalp. If you
care for pretty, soft hair and lots of it
surely get a 25-cent bottle of Knowl

toilet counter, and just try it.
