inches to the full depth of tile skirt.
In width and number they differ ac.

How to Walk Ora acefnily

Tho Introduction of common sense
shoes and garments for women has
placed within reach of almost every
woman the ability to acquire graceful
and natural carriage and manner of
walking born of freedom of movement.
Whatever may be said in praise of the
girl of grandmother's days, she could
1ot have been graceful. arrayed as she
was III hOopskirts. her bodice tightly
laced, and her feet cased In slippers
with ridiculously high French heels.
There Is nothing thar distinguishes
girl 50 much as an erect and natural
carriage. Il good polse of the head and
grace Of movement Yet correct
carriage can be acquired with ease,

III the floor. The hips should be thrown
back, the chest elevated rs mach as
possible, and the head raised. with the

When correct standing position has
been acquired, 1t Is n comparatively
simple matter 10 walk lightly and
gracefully. When the weight is on the

The heel should come Ia contact with
the floor first. but il the weight Is on

Even when the heaviest of shoes, with
thick soles are used, the step is light
and graceful. The glrl who practices
walking thus win soon become uncon-
scious OF her feet, state which GER
tainly approxlmates the perfection Of
grace.
Women walk far too rapidly for
grace. and-oddly enOugh-a short
woman always walks more quickly
than tall one; whereas a slow,
studied walk Is her only salvation. A
great authority has been heard to say
that " woman who holds herself well
never passes unperceived." The most

II Is The old conventionality that the
business OF woman Is always to make
q home for man. and that mans sphere
lies always outside the home that
causes much Of the modern woman's
discomfort, and against which she pro-
tests. The purpose OF all training. she
insists. Is to push the boy out into the
world. and to keep the girl In. and 1t
Is from this inequality and injustice
that she demands emancipation. says
the Centlewoman.
The view is mistaken one. however,

sexes being the same-to fit them fol

A dispatch from Lowell Mass. June q

declared the great strike in the Lowell mills

unanimous. Mule spinners and loom Axers
were included in this vote, despite state

The meeting lasted about an hour. There
was no dissension. The situation was dis
cussed carefully and with no suggestion of
cation favorable to return to work at
once.
When asked for a statement. President
Conroy smilingly said: I'VE now worship

of the agents, said: TT will be impossible
