In London a negro can go into the
finest restaurants and be served just like
a white man. He can sit at any public
table if he is quiet and can pay the bill
White walters serve him without a muir

The Proper Way to walk.

AS soon as a man comes into my shop
and takes off his shoe / can tell whether
or not he is u good walker. and it is as
tonishing to find how few men know the
proper way to step out. If the shoe is
worn down at the heel-not on the side
but straight back-and the leather of the
sole shows signs of weakness at the
ball of the foot, a little greater on the
inside Just below the base of the great
toe, know that the wearer is a good
walker If, however, the heel is turned
ON one side, or is worn evenly through
out, and the sole is worn most near the
toe, know that l have to deal with a
poor pedestrian.
The reason of the difference i'll posi-
ton of the worn spots lies in the fact
that the poor walker walks from his
knee and the good one from his hip
Watch the passerby on the street, and
you will at once see the difference Nine
men out of ten will bend the knee very
considerably in walking, stepping
straight out with both hips on the same
line, and the toe will be the first to
strike the ground. The tenth man will
bend his knee very little, just enough to
clear the ground, and will swing the leg
from the hip, very much as the arm is
swung from the shoulder and not from
the elbow. By so doing he calls upon
the muscles which are strongest to beaI
the strain, and increases the length of
his stride four or six inches.
The heel touches the ground first and
not the toe. A slight spring is given
from the bah of the foot on making
another stride. Men who walk in this
fashion cover the ground 80 per cent.
faster with the same exertion than those
who walk from the knee. In pugilism
the old rule is to strike from the shoul-
der and not from the elbow. In pedes-
trianism it is to walk from the hip and
not from the knee.-Interview in St
Louis Globe-Democrat.

THE SLEEPING SEA.
Far away ships are sailing
Far ond faint and dim

Far away ships are sailing
Far and faint and dim
CLEANS of white, or glints of light.
On the vague horizons rim
And the ocean, only varied
Where the breakers cry
From the strand of cleaning sand,
Stretches level To the sky
Cloudless azure heavens bending
Ger the sleeping sea-
Pulsing heat about her feet
Where can peril be1
Can it he that tempests gather.
Strong winds lash the deep?
Tossed in pain th,tall ships strain,
Maddened billows shoreward leap.
Trust the lion, trust the serpent
When he sleeping lies;
Trust thy hands to flaming brands
Trust not tickle seas and skies

sufficiently good substitute to allow of
his wearing it for three weeks after his

day, three weeks later, he said to
friend with whom he had just been din
ing:

and it doesn't fit Come with me and
I'll do it now"
Together they sought a neighboring
shop and began to examine hats. One
after another was tried on by the intend
ing purchaser, none quite suiting him.
'It's too bad" said his friend. Like
you, 1 am hard to fit. Now, this one is
the most comfortable hat ever had"
"It looks so," remarked the hat seek

handed to him. It adjusted itself per-

worn away another mans hat. And the
