GLIMPSES AT SOME FEET.
The Pedal EXtrem mites Of the
Vain, the SentimentaIist
and Spendthrift.

"By your feet" proclaimed the Or
Rcle, Il will read your fortune"
Everybody disappeared into the
hooks and corners of a bachelor-girl
apartment to reappear few minutes
later draped in sheets, counterpanes
and lace curtains. Spook like, with
hidden faces, they arranged them
selves about the room, says Kate Ken
sington in the New York Recorder.
Come forth" the priestess cried,
motioning to the nearest figure; lift
thy robe and show thy feet"
Dainty feet they were, small rounded
heels. pink toes and high insteps, but
'Ah, me-" sighed the Oracle You are
vain; you are fond of dress and your
pride has made you suffer; you will
spend your last penny for pretty things
and sacrifice your health for an all
night dance" Walls come from the
white wraiths about, and the unfor-
tunate one sobbed bitterly. Your lit
tie toe is pushed over by tight shoes
until it overlaps the third toe. And
the big toe has made a regular Gin
derella out of the first toe and the joint
stands up, showing your shoes have
been too short. In this lies vanity and
great courage"
From the top of the little toe to the
first joint of the big toe there is great
width, signifying that you ere fond Of
walking and athletic exercises.
THE cords are distinctly defined,
which tells of great determination and
that you will live to see your wishes full
~ realized. You will be lucky in love,
married twice, and you will die the
mother of seven children, for seven toe
nails are sunken quite deep into the
flesh. Now get thee to thy resting
place"
The next foot had prominent ankle
bones. You are masculine to a GER
tain degree in your tastes pronounced

than judgment and will be inclined to
dress your children more in a dainty
pretty way than warmly and comfort
ably
The next foot when placed upon the
floor left hollow sufficiently large be-
meath it to permit of the hand slip
ping under You are high-tempered;
dote greatly on ancestry; are inclined
to be over sensitive; consequently at
times you are very unhappy without
cause. You are high strung, we'll bred
and are born to grace society. You
will marry man much older than
yourself and travel in many lands"
The draped figure that came next was
timid and hestated before exhibiting
the foot 1t was extremely long,
slender, fat and with well turned
ankle. You are inclined to litera-
ture" said the Oracle; but the love of
admiration and the attention of So
ciety drifts you from your purpose.
A person with such a foot must neces-
gariIy be courted, petted and highly
esteemed. Success will come to you
through favoritism, while others with,
perhaps, superior talents will fail.
You are like the humming bird that in
Its anxiety to enjoy all the good things
offered it allows to slip by unheeded the
greatest opportunities. You will have
many propositions of marriage but you
will sail over the briny ocean and there
find your liege lord"
"When?" questioned a faint voice
and the answer, some time between
thirty and thirty-five years of age -
acted like a cyclone and laid the
listeners low.
I'm the choice of partners said the
Oracle to the next believer in fate,
your mind will be guided by prudence
and not by beauty; this is shown by the
little toe hiding it's head under the
third toe If, when your foot is fiat on
the ground you cannot see all the nails
at once, it shows you are cautious"
Here the Oracle arose from her seat
of honor and kneeling down pointed to
such and such indications, comparing
this eoot with that, and saying do
nestle comfort will come to anybody
who has the second toe bumped up
above the rest, at the same time es-
Gaping a corn. If the right foot
spreads quite a degree more than the
left, it denotes that some good angel

the foot reader. you like tailor made
suits you wear the white shirt and
1our-in-hand tie. Your ankle is large,
you come from a Warlike family, more
brave than aristocratic; your heel is
narrow and the hollow behind the
ankle bone is exceedingly deep, indi-
eating that your fortunes will be great
~ impaired by matrimony.' A howl
of delight signified that the seeress had
struck some fact. Your foot IS long,
broad and rather fiat; you will never
get into so tight place that you can
not get out with ease. l note too,
that you will enjoy better fortune in
old age than in youth. AS you press
your foot down see that the toes are
elastic. and as you move the first, sec
Cnd and third together they display the
cords to the ankl bone, which denotes
that you will be master of whatever
you undertake | always put through
your undertakings"
The interest became greater and the
third foot was planted for inspection.
Your health is not good because there
is a damp GOODNESS about the flesh.
The many blue veins that stand out
so prominently mark you as very ner-
Vous and on the verge of prostration.
Your work is mental and by your toes
clinging so closely together when you
step with full force on the floor l know
that your tastes are artistic and you
were never meant to do physical labor.

man, but you have more sentiment

when resting with full weight on the
floor it shows little change in form be-
longs to a woman who is very fond OF
men and fiirts. Riches would be
curse to a person who has no slight
hollow back of the ankle bone, and
long, narrow, shell like toe nails, such
as these said the Oracle, pointing her
finger to two of the most beautiful feet
in the room, could never be on any
ones foot without carrying with them
ffckleness in love affairs" Loud laugh
ter greeted this remark. 'She, for eX-
ample, concluded the Oracle of fate,
lis usually engaged to two people at
once" This and the heat together
were too much for the gathering OF
ghosts, and they threw aside the sheets
and performed a war dance about the
belle who had been so cruelty exposed.

took a piece of paper and outlined with a
pencil one of the feet that had not yet
been criticised You notice that the
heel spreads as wide as does the foot
at the ball. This is something we sell

RED GRASS.
A Hint for the Esthetic Young
Man in the Suburb.

London Answers.
When the green carnation died nat
ural death two years ago many people
shook their heads and feared some
thing worse would take its place. And
these wiseacres had not long to wait,
for several young gentlemen appeared
at the next years Goodwood with scar
let and buff lilies of the valley i'll their
button-holes.
But it still remained for gentleman
who owns a trim villa on the summit
of Muswell hill = not many hundred
yards from the whilom famous Alex
andra palace-to carry out the idea on
a trif1e more extensive scale. The 9TH
er afternoon he gave a garden party,
when, imagine the establishment of the
earlier-arrived guests to behold a lux
urious lawn covered with grass, not
green, but of a dark Turkey red, close
ly bordering on purple. All admired it,
however, and reveled in its warmth Of
tint-comparing the lawn to an i'm
1nense red rug.
1t afterwards appeared that the lawn
had been cut up into sods, and the
grass roots impregnated with a chemi-
cal dye before being put back again,
not once, but thrice, in as many sue
cessive days. The dye was thus con-
yeyed to the glass blades.

DISAPPEARANCE OF THRONES
Bit of Royal BriC-a- Brac Which
Is Now Seldom Used.

Bit of Royal Bric-a- Brac Which
Is Now Seldom Used.
Among the most curious indications
of the evolution of democracy in old
Europe is the gradual disappearance of
the throne meaning, not the institution
of monarchy, but the actual, palpable
chair of state, preferably of gold en-
bellished withagems adj libitum, which
we used to hear so much about in fairy
tales. The throne, till recently pail
pable reality, is today only symbol.
The newspapers tell Of m0narch's ac-
cession to the throne of his ancestors,
of carrying popular complaints to the
throne, Of speeches from the throne;
this throne is said to be firm, that to be
tottering-but these are only metaphors.
This is so true that if man we're
asked 10 describe the piece of furniture
in question he would be seriously en-
barrasSed in his efforts.
1t Is true that there are chairs of state
every sovereign has seyeral-that are
spoken of as thrones. But they are so
only for the moment. while the monarch
OF his spouse occupies them. whereas
the veritable throne, that majestic raised
seat, made of gold and iucrusted with
precious stones. seated on which the
monarch issued his edicts and rendered
justice, the throne Of which the very
feet we're saturated with majeSty-thiS
throne has disappeared.
France has amused herself by abolish.
ing and then re-eStablishing the throne
at intervals. But her ally, the ear of
all the RuSsiaS, has at least a dozen,
that is to say. his majesty Nicholas Ill.
owns quantities of decorated armchairs
that are alternately designated by the
name of throne though no single one
can claim the dignity exclusively.
The most expensive OF all is probably
the chair that belonged to His Majesty
Ivan the Terrible, which is now at
Moscow in the treasure chamber Of the
Kremlin. This precious piece of furni-
ture is composed entirely of turquoiSeS
fitted into each other like the stones of
pavement. The back alone contains
10000 Of these precious stones, which
were picked out from the most beauti-
full specimens known to those times.
What is the British throne? Is it the
stone seat of Edward the Confessor at
Westminster Abbey, WHICH has served
seat of the soyereignS of Britain? Is it
house Of lords? or the seat occupied
by the queen when she receives In
Buckingham Palace? or the gilt arm
chair on which her Britannia majesty
sits at Windsor when she gives audi
ence to foreign ENJOYS?
Certainly no one of her chairs can
| claim the title of throne exclusively.
| The English give it generally TO the
stone seat Of Westminster Abbey, though
that is occupied only once by each
monarch.
Thanks to the love of Louis, king of
Bavaria, for all that is sumptuous, that
country possesses more than dozen
chairs wonderfully carved and covered
with gold and precious stones. They
are distributed among the numerous
royal palaces and chateaux that have
cost that country such prodigiOus sums
Of money.
