New York World: There is u new
style, a startling style, in canes.
an absolute departure from allprece-
dent.
The dumb bell cane is the latest. 1t
has the sanction of the Prince OF Wales
and the London sw.ells.
1t is a cross between a drum major's
baton and a du1nb-bell. 1t is employed
for exercise only. You couldn't support
Your weary steps with 1t IS with an
ordinary cane. Though the ferula is
heavy and the cane would doubtless
stand the toughest of usage, 1t is not
good form to touch 1t to the ground.
The dumb-beil cane has the regula-
ton cane length-about thirty-six
'inches-and 1t mat be made of almost
any OF the usual materials, The pre-
vailing styles are what are known IL
the world of canery as Manages
There are ether canes Of ordinary
bamboo, but they do not seem quite SO
entirely correct as the .Wangee' va
riety.
Should you be walking up Fifth ave-
nue. any fine afternoon In the neigh
borllood OF the Waldorf you might see
q few well dressed young men carry
ing these canes.
The first man you see With one I'M
presses you with the idea that he has a
case of locon1otof ataNia. His arm goes
out from his side, then up n down,
then right ana left in a sort OF calls
thenic rhythm, with which his legs
seem to keep time. Perhaps you watch
him until he passes out CT sight.
Terrible atliction. poor fellow" you
say to yourself: when, 10, around the
corner swings another cane-earrier.
His antics are equally remarkable.
Then you see another and another.
! Finally 1t dawns upon Q that per-
hars It's the cane and not the man.
Your anxiety about the physical de-
generacy Of the cnd-of-the-century
man is relieved. But there is the cane
mystery still to be explained.
You seek out some fashionable out
filter.
What about those canes?'
The ger gives the desired in
formation.
"Oh, you mean the latest cane from
the other side" {By the way did you
ever hear london referred to as any
thing else than '.the other side% This
term means wherever the Prince of
Wales happens to be.)
We'll, those canes are II wonderful
invention. They are made for men
who do not get much exercise. Take an
automobile driver, for instance. His
arms are not pulled or his wrist
were driving fast horses.
There is no calamity which can
overtake a man who prides himself on
keeping lit more dread than fIabby
\ biceps.
.The new canes are constructed to
save the automobile biceps. That is
their principal use. Or course. they
are applied also In developing the arm
muscles Of the ordinary pedestrian"
