SHOES AND GRACE
full WALKING

"All of the cities on the Continent,
said a prominent wholesale shoe mer-
chant who has just returned from his
first trip abroad, 'are full of graceful
walkers of the feminine sex This is
more noticeable to the American, prob
ably for the reason that here. in ou1
larger cities especially, we see SO little
of that kind.
1.-THE reason American women don't
walk well, as a rule, is that their shoes
are uncomfortable and the heels are
too high. A French woman can walk
all day without a protest. And re-
CARELESS of the fact that she wears
those much abused French heels. But
that is just where the mistake is made.
The American manufacturer has. in
his endeaVor to provide something
quite dashing, tackled onto the heel
seat of some of the shoes a heel mon
strosity which throws the average
French custom shoemaker into a rage
at the sight Of it.
What the French woman really
wears for street wear Is the old fash
Toned rs or IA Louis heel with the
broad top lift, which gives as much
surface on which to walk as the ordi-
nary military heel of the present day
feet according to the shape the good
Lord made them. If her foot is of the
long, narrow and pointed kind, that is
the kind of Shoes she buys or has made;
if short, wide and square; it is the short
vamp and broad toe that is selected.
And above all other things-they are
never tight
Said a well-known gymnasium
teacher to me: 1t is impossible for a
woman to be awkward in her walk if
she will wear a shoe with a heel not
exceeding IL inches in height and
when she puts her foot down have the
toes turned outward The former re-
striction permits her to follow the rule
of putting the ball of the foot down
first, and the latter is the natural posi-
ton of the foot if it is put down ma
turally with the ball first
Il was also told by many shoemak-
ers abroad that it is the usual. rather
than the unusual, thing for the woman
of average means to posses eight or
nine pairs of shoes, and change often.
These were street shoes to which he
referred. Another good and sensible
thing those foreigners do is to fire.
quently have new kid Innings put in
their shoes. This, they claim, makes
the shoes feel fresher and prevents
blisters.
There is much to be learned from !
the foreigners in the selection and care
of shoes but the thing that strikes me as
being the fundamental principle, or
difference, between the American wo-
man and her sister abroad. lies in the
fact that the former selects her shoes
with but the one thought of style.
while the latter looks for comfort ana
utility first and then Shoe Re-
taller.
