How to Cultivate a Graceful Walk
SO few girls have a graceful walk,
yet the physical culture instruc
to s in al] the public school'
I make a point of teaching girls how <o
carry themselves So it must really b«
!a girl's own fault if sh«- walks badly,
land ] have often thought as I watched
would-be actre-ses and future stars
I move across the stage thet it is more a
question of mind than of muscles and
: bones and joints, and al! that kind of
i mechanism
It's alw.-iy- interesting to watch the
i stage manager pick out a new chorus
I among the hundreds of aspirants who
come to apply for stage work.
in musical comedy of course, there
Is always a vocal test, ami each glr
endeavors to show off her voice in the
one or two minutes’ time that is given
her. I don't think Melba could do her
self justice if she had to get up and’
sing a scale when she was paralyzed
with fear, when her whole future de
pended on how those notes were pro
duced. and whr-n a single scale or bar
was all she was permitted to sing
So it’s fo'tunate that the stage man
agers give the girls the benefit of the
doubt when It comes to voice, and
judg. them all by their personal ap
pearance, bv the way they act. and
especially by the way they walk across
the stage.
One famous stage manager told me
that he always had to take so many
things into consideration before judg
ing even the walk of the stage aspi»
rant.
"Why is tt that you girls show your
state of mind so plainly In the way you
walk?'' said this well known man,
whose name I won't mention, because
he wouldn’t like to see himself in print
giving points on how to be beautiful.
”1 can tell how a girl feels by the
way She walks across the stage,” he
went on
An Example.
"There is a timid, shrinking little
thing with her back bent trying to
hide her head behind her shoulders;
she may have a good voice and talent,
but her walk is so diffident that no one
will ever believe her capable of assert
ing herself until she gels over that
walk.
"The girl who brags about what a
great actress she Is going to be, swag
gers across the stage like a man until
she sees the manager's eyes upon her,
and then she becomes so hopelessly
awkward that she stumbles over the
chair, or even over her own feet, if
nothing else In the way.
“The girl who doesn’t care whether or
not she is going to succeed, and isn’t
going to try very hard, has a shambling
sort of walk, and the lazy girl gener
ally drags her feet.
"When you see a girl walk across the
stage with a light, springy walk, you
can be sure there is plenty of energy
and good will behind it, and. I always
would rather engage a girl like that
than a perfect beauty who goes ga
lumphing along, and shakes the whole
stage and the very timbers of the
building.
"The shoeman tells me that he can
judge character by the way the girls
wear out their shoes. Well, 1 can
judge character pretty well by the way
the girls stand and walk, and, after all,
the wearing of the shoe Is just the re
sult of this bad and ungraceful, or alert
and graceful, carriage.”
As I was curious to know what the
stage shoemaker thought about char
acter as shown tn shoes, I took the op
portunlty to ask him once, and this is
what ho had to say about it:
“You know there Is nn old proverb
that it means money If you wear a hole
right in the middle of your sole under
the ball of the foot.” said the maker of
millions of shoes “That may sound

MISS ELLA WARNER.
(One of the Ziegfeld beauties in “ The Winsome Widow” Company)
like one of those foolish superstitions,
but it 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.
"A person like that is bound to have
an upright, even character, and to be
energetic and persevering. Os course,
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 so fast, and there is
nothing that shows so plainly in old
shoes as Indecision. These shoes are
partly worn out on either side of the
heel because the person stands first on
one foot and 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
extravagant.
“You can always tell 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
happy.
"Comparatively few women wear
shoes too small for them nowadays. The

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-

i Slaton Saturday evening by Mr. and
Mrs Robert F. Maddox.
’ About the outer edge of the miniature
lake were set tall silver vases of pink

silver candlesticks shaded in pink and
crystal. The silver platters used in
serving the courses were bordered with
' pink and lavender blossoms and banked

"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; the 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 hive 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 the ball of the foot, and the
down-trodden heels no longer worry
me.
I had to learn to walk all over again,
but I 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 I 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.

HON FIHST FELT
HAT 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 the 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 the skins that
his friends collected, sharpened up his
hatchet on a convenient stone and
shaved 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
skins and made aWiunter’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 began to shrink.
By manipulating it svrth 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 was
to be world-wide In its influence.

VAGRANT HAD 10.000
CENTS LEFT BY MOTHER
PITTSBURG. Sept. 2.—When Joseph
Whittenberg, of Fahnestock street, was

arrested for vagrancy, the police were
surprised to find hanging around his neck
a large chamois bag containing 1.000
cents. Whittenburg said he had lots
more money at his home and when the
officers searched the little shack they
found 9,000 pennies stowed away in an
old trunk.
Whittenberg informed Ute police his
mother had left him ?90 when she died
to pay his own funeral expenses. He
had it changed into cents and added
more to his hoard.
