WOMAN'S SHOES AND WALK.
Points Picked Up by the Philosophical
(0bbler,

The philosopher is ordinarily genial,
charitable sort of a man, ready to find
kindly motives for some of the eccen-
tricities of his fellow men, and espe-
cially for the whims of the fair sex.
An occasional fit of indigestion, how
ever, over which he has no control,
renders him at times almost irascible
in temper and tinges his otherwise
sound dicta with cynicism. But even
in this deplorable condition, we can
always find something worth consider
ing in his remarks. lie says, in n Of
these moods: You Il always tell, if
you pay close attention. where and how
a woman customer is going to wear on
your nerves and patience by her talk.
Women are more careless in their tread
than men are. Perhaps this is due
partly to the fact that their feet are
not so conspicuous as mems, because of
their skirts, but it is partly due to in
difference also. This is against the
shoe, but in favor of the shoe man.
pollt NoilCu, III LAW, toil U iuIt ~
they walk, so long as they get there
to the bargain counter, l mean, In a
cake walk, for prize, of course, they
would be more careful and graceful"
The philosophers gray hairs prevented
one with charging him with want of
%gallantry.
The cobbler says that the shoes of a
great many woman are like glass at
the bottoms when brought to him for
repair. lie says these belong to the
domestic women who polish the solcs
IN carpets at home. With women who
are much on the street the Ease is diff
ferent. They roughen the soles just as
much as men do. do not think that,
as a rule, women tread as tl~at-footed as
men do; their shoes are narrower,
higher-heeled, and consequently they
slip about more sideways, and this
tends toward friction and the CLOSING
Of the soles, particularly at home.
One reason why women wear out
more shoes than men do is because
they are much shorter steppers. The
average women will take about one
third more steps than a man will tc
progress n given distance, hence hel
shoe soles come in contact with the
ground fifty per cent. oftener than dc
those of a mans shoes. Even with the
same material and quality of shoes
she would naturally wear three pair,
to a mans two, at least at the bottoms
allowing a slight discount on this aver
age for the lighter weight of tn,
woman's body. She takes shorter step
for two reasons First, she doesn'
care to stride with a long, miii.ar.
step, and, second. her skirts impede tn
motions of the knee, and to take Ion
steps would be quite uncomfortable
To overcome the resistance offered b
their clothes and to indulge in tn
added labor of walking are enoug
without attempts to cover niue
ground at each step. No reform
needed in this respect. Boots an

tence, being in an obscure street,
In a building that wore the look of alb
iect-genteel poverty. Considering the
dispiriting surrounding, it is little mar
vel that Mr.. Podd frequently sought
the charming companionship of Miss
Melinda Smythe, or entertained, in Sc
cret, visions Of a vine-emhowered cot
tage, with this divinity us its presiding
deity, for If there be any excuse for a
rash plunge into the tumultuous sea of
matrimony it is that the unfortunate
victim leaps from the positive infe-
licity of the typical obscure boarding
house into the blissful unknown.
Mr.. Podd's sojourn at these lodgings,
however, was n matter OF policy, both
on accoun of the cheapuess of bed and
board, and also on the score that, ow-
ing to the undisguised Partially of the
landlady's daughter for this particular
boarder the mother was more lenient
in collecting his arrears and more in
dulgent in many of the minor workings
of the establishment, including choice
morsels at the table and n thoughtful
supervision of his wardrobe and room.
Owing to these several advantages
he fingered on, yet refused to allow his
perverted heart to be softcned by the
Establishments Of the daughter o
than was essential to his own COM
fort and convenience as a privileged

When he wished an extension Of

might readily make a selection, but

congenial doves, clasped hands, mot
toes of truth, fidelity, consistency and
devotion, with other symbols repre-
senting a harmonious state of affairs
generally, were scattered prodigally
over gilded paper in filigree design.
Added to this was an amatory sonnet,
wherein dove, love, bliss, kiss, etc,
were worked up in several lines of
choicest machine poetry, while the
finale was a suggestive sketch Of a de-
