To walk well is an art that-should be learned by every woman when she is young, and then as she grows older she will walk gracefully as a matter of course, and there will be no effort at all in the way that she does it says the Chicago Record. For though a woman can learn to walk perfectly graceful when she is older, there is never the unconscious grace of motion that there is if she is taught how to walk asa child. The training of a child in walking correct- l‘y should begin at its very earliest years. Asisoou us it is old" enough to be ' taught to walk it should be taught how to do it correctly. Very many chil- drenare really never taught to walk at all. They are put on their feet by their nurses, and allowed to trun about any- how, and little faults, that may grow info.;l?._rge ones, go utterly unchecked. All"'children should be taught to dance when they are between 5 and 6; this will make them walk better and hold themselves better than anything else. When you walk you should put the foot firmly and y et lightly on the ground. Never walk as though your feet were of lead, and yet do not wince and go along as if you were overcome with afiectation‘; either extreme is very bad style. You should hold your body erect and yOur head up .and ,the shOulders well back. In this way you will always look well and preserve your health and avoid any kind of lung or chest trouble. The effect of walking is to exercise the muscles, quicken the breathing, improve the digestion and keep the body in perfect health. If, howevetl, the shoulders and head are bent for~ ward the good effect is entirely lost sight of, and there will be no good whatever come from the walk. For a walk to do good you should, if possible, always have a companion with you, as when you are talking the blood circulates more freely in the I brain, and the benefit that you derive lrom the open air is very greatly in- creased. And also the walk should be a, bona-fide One, not merely an idle saunter up and down a road with no speciallobject in view. And always have before you the wish to appear at your best as you walk, not merely to get over the ground as quickly as possible in any kind of a way. Women who scurry along like rabbits or hens lose all idea of a grace- ful carriage and look more absurd than anything else. - To learn to have an erect carriage it isa capital thing to make a girl hold a very light burden'on the head, such as I. padded coil of rope or ‘a- thin ‘light book. They will then. hold the head erect and walk perfectly upright. And yet they will not detract from agraceful, pretty carriage, as trying to.ca.rry too heavy a, weight might be apt to make them have. Great care should be taken also that the . boots and shoes worn should be - perfectly easy and comfortable to the foot. On. no accOunt should too small a shoe be ‘chosen, or the foot will be cramped, and walking instead of being straight, will he most awkward. On the other hand, too large a. shoe is nearly as bad, as then the foot slips about from side to side, and instead of walking firmly and gracefully you are apt to shuffle along all the world llke a fiat-foOted person, and look most in- elegant. :M fiatylfié o/guo.

' more bitter than that which comes with the wrench of death’s hand. The days when we have really the sorest heart troubles are the ones when the weather generally acts its worst. 4 It somehow aggravates a woman when a man guesses anywhere near the price she paid for a supposed bar- gain. ' Pajamaslv‘are popular as feminine sleeping garments, but the true wo- manly soul clings to the fluffy, lace trimmed robe de unit. If we only had a chance to live‘ove1 even one year of our lives with the experience gained, what a different result we would achieve. Many a man who is shy a toe also a great deal of courage takes delight in telling of the wonderful things he would do “if he could go.” The woman who uses a paper-cutter, instead of a hairpin, in opening new magazines has achieved a point to be envied by the great majority of her sisters. Planned happiness rarely develops as originally thought out. The un- expected most truly always does occur and the season of joy becomes the season of sorrow. The amateur housekeeper who asks in market for eggs that are cafe au lait in tint must admit that the laugh IS on her when the stall- -keepe1 says that the only kind he sell the hens lay. —Everybody Talks of the Klondike.

Living Without a Stomach. Al: Zurich there lives a woman Who was deprived of her stomach five months ago by Professor Schlatter, of that city. It was a. daring operation. , but her only chance, 62 life. The mys- tery is how she contrives to exist, but ' she is well, eats well, and has gained . flesh "since she lost her stomach. The secret is that the Professor, after re- moving the stomach, joined the intes- tine to the digestive tube. It was known that digestion is not completed in the stomach. but goes on In the. in- testine, by means of the pancreatic juice, and the intestine now does duty for a stomach. The woman lives chief- ly on milk. bouillon, and meat cut . small. » -_.-«-mw, ' T0 RENT. TO RENT. —Cheap to small family, four 1ooms on second fipor.
