ings with Spain; and that fact, decis-
lively established, is conclusive of an
adjustment of all questions at Paris
entirely favorable to the demands of
the government of the United States.
If the result of the elections next
month is hostile to the administration
the jig is up at Paris. The Oregon
and Iowa and all their glorious consorts
are of no avail if the American people
are not behind their guns and Dewey's
great achievement in Manila Bay was q
fasco if theIe is any faltering now.
GEN. DANIEL E. SICKLEs was q
patriot and brilliant fighter in the
war of the rebellion. In civil life since
the war he has shown himself to be
both patriot and man of hard sense.
A Democrat, he has nevertheless been
generally in accord with the Republic
cans on great national estions, and
in the national election of 1896 he was
one of the foremost and most effective
campaigners on the Republican side.
There is little of the partizan in the
man who lost leg on the field of
Gettysburg, but very much of broad
minded, clear sighted American. AT
a dinner in New York, Wednesday
evening, Gen. Sickles, as reported, ex-
pressed the opinion "that the peace
commission is pure farce. 1t means
simply a long wrangle, ending in dis
agreement. The Europeans will all
range on the side of Spain, and we shall
be told that we are too arrogant and
must abide by European opinion. This
sending the Iowa and the Oregon to
the Philippines is all wrong. Keer

To walk well is an art that should be
learned by every woman when she is
young and then as she grows older she
will walk gracefully as a matter of course,
and there will be no effort at all in the
way that she does it, says the Chicago
Record For though a woman can learn
to walk perfectly graceful when she is
older, there is never the unconscious
grace of motion that there is if she is
taught how 10 walk as child. The train
ing of a child in walking correctly should
begin at its very earliest years. AS soon
as IL is old enough to be taught to walk
it should be taught how to do 1t correctly.
Very many children are really never
taught to walk at all. They are put on
their feet by their nurses, and allowed to
run about anyhow, and little faults, that
may grow into large ones, go utterly I'M
checked. All children should be taught to
dance when they are between and 6; this
will make them walk better and hold
themselves better than anything else.
l. When you walk you should put the foot
firmly and yet lightly on the ground.
Never walk as though your feet were of
lead and yet do not vince and go along
as if you were overcome with affectation;
either extreme is very bad style. You
should hold your body erect and your head
up and the shoulders well back. In this
way you will always look well and pre-
serve your health and avoid any kind of
lung or chest trouble. The effect of walk
ing is to exercise the muscles quicken the
breathing, improve the digestion and keep
the body in perfect health. If, however,
the shoulders and head bent forward the
good effect is entirely lost sight of, and
there will be no good whatever come from
the walk
For a walk to do you good you should,
if possible, always have a companion with
you, as when your are talking the blood
-, dot 11vr h. n
the benefit that you derive from the open
air is very greatly increased. And also
the walk should be a bona fide one, not
merely an idle saunter up and down a
road with no special object in view. And
always have before you the wish to ap-
spear at your best as you walk, not merely
to try to get over the ground as quickly
as possible in any kind of way Women
who scurry along like rabbits or hens
lose all idea of a graceful carriage and
look more absurd than anything else.
To learn to have an erect carriage il is
a capital thing to make girl hold very
light burden on the head, such as pad
ded coil of rope or a thin light book. They
will then hold the head erect and walk
perfectly upright. And yet they win not
detract from a graceful, pretty carriage,
as trying TO carry too heavy a weight
might be apt to make them have. Great
care should be taken also that the boots
and shoes worn should be perfectly easy
and comfortable to the foot. On no ac-
count should too small a shoe be chosen,
or the foot will be cramped, and walk
ing, instead of being straight, will be most
awkward. On the other hand too large a
shoe is nearly as bad as then the foot
slips about from side to side, and instead
Of walking firmly and gracefully you are
apt to shuttle along all the world like q
f1at-footed person, and look most inele-

Between you and me-" says a writer In
the Chicago Times-Herald, l have always
had the sneaking opinion that nice bach
elors are not bachelors from choice. There

or else they have slipped up for some rea-
son or other All this talk about the bach
elors being scared half to death doesn' I
sound believable to me for The reason that
ell the lovely and interesting girls that L
know have regular armies of them tag
ging around. Most men are better off mar
ried, and all sensible men know it. But
you see all men can't get the girls they
want. Why, there isn't a bright, inter
esting girl In this town that could not mar
ry if she really wanted to. But, goodness
me, she knows the kind of a man she
wants and she is going to wait until he
comes along. The men may be buttoning
up their affections and crowding them into
strait-jackets for that matter but they
aren't choking back their natural feelings
for the companionship and love of some
nice woman because they want TO, you
can depend upon that. And, another thing,
/ refuse point blank to believe mothers go
around seeking eligible husbands for their
daughters Mothers with hearts that are

to be handed over to the keeping of the
young man who promises to love and pro
teet her for the rest of her natural ex-
istence. The companionship of mother and
daughter is the sweetest hottest thing on
earth and il seems absurd to think that
mothers are working their finger nails off
to break that companionship ever so little.

feelings, fencing them in or botting them
