athletic of women.
Walking, however, has everything to
recommend it as form of exercise for
women, and it is an esta bl ished fact that
women who 90 the most walking preserve
their health and, above all, their beauty

present the dangers that do some of the
forms of exercise above mentioned; nor
does it unduly develop one portion of the

the more re9retable as the daughters of
Uncle Sam are distinguished among all
other women of the world for the beauty
and elegance of their walk. A graceful
walk is very rare in Europe, and there
are but few women who know how to
cross from one side of q ballroom to the
other without impairing by their carriage
the effect of any beauty which they may
possess. English women although pas
sionately fond of walking-an English
girl thinks nothing of tramping twelve
or twenty miles day on foot-very rarely
walk with elegance. Their movement is
too harshly accumulated, their step too
vigorous and their action deficient in
feminine grace. The German woman
walks heavily, and as general rule sub
stitutes slow clumsiness for the some
what masculine vigor and energy of the
Englishwomans step. The French
women, the Hungarian women and tho
beautiful Poles can none of them be con-
sidered good and graceful walkers.
Graceful they are and supremely elegant
in all their movements. But they don't
walk. They trip and flutter and prancs
and stamp their dainty feet like the
''piaffment" or ''dishing" of some hie h
melted horse, but they can't walk.
Spaniards and Italians, especially those
belonging to the lower classes, do walk
very gracefully, and seem to glide-one
might almost say hover-Over the
ground, without offending the eye with
any angularity or accumulation in the
this elegance is attributable to the habit
of these women, when young, of carry
ing jars of water balanced on their heads.

Many millions Of yi.ite,,.

It Is now nearly forty years since the
queen, with the prince consort, several
foreign royalties and a brilliant court,
declared the Crystal Palace open, with
the aspiration that it might elevate
and instruct, as well as delight and
amuse all classes" Very rarely, says
the London Telegraph, have the ex-
pressions of royal or official optimism
been more fully realized. Nearly all
the sovereigns of Europe and dusky
potentates OF Asia and Africa have
shared, with the poorest children of the
slums. the week day and Sunday
schools, the great trade benefit societies
and the ''custodians Of law and order"
the delights of Sydenham. 1t is esti-
mated that some 10000, 900 Of visitors
have entered the palace since its OPEN

rately expressed by saying that that
