Possibilities Of saPllng- In Decorative Art.
Some inventive New York girls who
were delighted with the walking sticks
they brought from the mountains last
summer set their busy brains to the task
Of evolving various pretty things from
such spruce saplings rs their walking
sticks were made Of.
They imported IA wagon load Of the
material, stripped of the bark, left it
soaking in water until the twiEs became
pliable and could be twisted into grace
full curves and interlacemeuts. Then
their deft fingers worked the saplings
into easels, having the effect of wood
carvings; they twisted, curved, crossed
and interlaced the twigs until the sap
hngs became effective picture frames.
\ large screen with its apparently
carven frame was nothing more nor less
than the same twisted sapling with the
Interior Of the frame filed in with n fret
work of twisted twigs backed by "A
panel of subdued rose plush.
There seemed to be no end to the
originality of the girls in their use of
the pliable sapling. Indeed, when Sam
sawed six slim, slippery saplings, and
caused his immortal deed to slip in the
mouths OF posterity, it is doubtful if he
could have believed the possibilities Of
those same six slim. slippery, etc.
a beautiful jewel box had four stout
sticks for the corners, and top, bottom
and sides We're formed of the twigs in
terlaced with rings and scrolls lined
with turquois blue plush, heightening
the effect of the white scroll work.
A large portfolio to hold etchings was
similarly designed.
Foot rests, vases to hold dried grasses,
scrap baskets and brackets had unique
forms of their own.
But the most unique invention of all
vas n book cover, the back of which
was a foot Of good sized sapling grooved
into a hollow to hold the leaves of a
book; attached to this stick by tiny
hinges were the front and back covers:
n frame work of small saplings, inclos-
ing n network of interlaced twigs ut
lining II girls name in the center. Each
girl designed her own and intended it
to hold the record of her next summers

DIR. Rothrock, professor Of botany at
the University of Pennsylvania, is pre-
pairing for the establishment in his de-
partment of a museum, which promises
to be of unusual industrial Importance.
Few steps that the institution has taken
lately tend to bring it into as close con-
tact with the manufacturing interests OF
the country as this seems likely to do.
The new collection, to be called the mu-
scum of economic botany, win consist of
specimens of all kinds of woods, vege-
table fibers, grains and drugs, arranged
so rs to illustrate the processes of manu-
fecture from the raw product and the
various uses to which each material may
be put.-New Orleans Picayune.

The average girl lacks repose. To lack
rapose is to lack grace. Women go to
the theatre to rave over the grace of this
actress and hat. They would be more
wise if they tried TO divine the secret of
that grace and to possess themselves of
it in practice,
To move, it is not always necessary to
shift the position Of the feet. That is
one big secret. The sense conveyed of
"repose" and grace and self possession
which constitutes 50 chief n harm Of
many women on the stage lies largely in
this trick of keeping the feet still-Of
taking no more steps thar necessary, of
moving the body towards the adjacent
object rather than getting TO it by a sort
of dog trot Of a step or two-Of shifting
the weight easily TO one side or another.
The hostess on the stage greets half a
dozen incoming and crowding guests and
her grace and "repOse" is the admiration
of the society matron in the front row.
The stage hostess merely sways her
well balanced body toward the different
NAAiH ~ hAAi must kANfAH llbM W Ut
right. now to the left-there is a grace-
full undulation Of movement AS through
the graceful lines Of her figure the change
Of balance passes-this would be cramped
into mere jerky awkwardness if with
every move she shifted her feet too.
The ease and grace of the walk"
women nave on the stage is explained
by their control of equilibrium-the
body shifts deity in poise over each
foot as it is advanced-at any moment
the motion can be arrested. and the
figure stands in graceful, perfectly bal
anced repose. The average girl walks
all in one. as il were-her feet do it all
-an1 the body altogether and ramrod
stiff Is jerked along.
There is n pretty charm in the way an
actress feet show under the edge Of her
gown. Mrs. Kendall, for instance: her
feet push gently out, and step by step
from the soft edges of her gowns, n
womanly grace is somehow suggested.
Who does not remember the provok-
ing flash of Ellen Tcrry's quantity shod
feet in ''Bcatrice"-a flash only possible
to feet flung surely and freely into mo-
ton from well poised hips. The sou
hrette who crosses her knees" seems
somehow very dainty about it, though
her pretty stocking and dainty shoes
are so much displayed. Well, the pen
dant foot is prettily poised with toe
pointed down and instep arched-therein
lies the d%nintiness.
We all remember Mary Anderson't
wonderful exit from the nurse scene il
"Juliet'-she seemed like n painting Of
spring" breathed into life to furnish TIA,
airy dance, one pose of which was caught
on the canvas; this and her Perdita
