If you want to be graceful don't
look at your feet, but hold your head
well up in the air. Don't shuttle.
A little thoughtfulness and practice
in high stepping will soon break you
of this ugly habit. Don't bend your
back at the waist, under the impress
sion that you are thereby walking
erectly. 1t throws the stomach for
ward and is almost as inimical to
grace as round shoulders. Finally
don't allow yourself to walk pigeon
toed''-that is, with the toes turned
in or straight. You can never be
graceful in movement while you do.
says Woman's Life.
1t is always hard to tell what to
do with the hands. The natural way.
to have them hanging at the sides, or
loosely clasped in front, is not beau
tiful. And to have them glued to
the sides as far as the waist-line. and
then bent in at the elbow, is not only
awkward in itself. but elevates the
shoulders in the most unlovely way.
Therefore, most women try to OBJ
viate the difficulty by carrying some
thing.

TO WALK WELL.

Nearly every woman walks
far to rapidly for anything like
grace to enter into her move

Tall women. for some reason,
walk more slowly than the little
ones. Their elbows, shoulders

with every movement of their
feet.

OF ACTRESS DAUGHTER
Deputy County Assessor Proud Of
Success Of Los Angeles Girl,
Who Is Soon to Play at
Local Theater

Proud as a newly made father Is
Deputy County Assessor John T. Best,
for Mr.. Best is the father of Katherine
Grey, who is to appear Monday at the

tin Beck's company playing Clyde
Fitch's comedy. 1.-THE Truth"
Mr. Best has not seen his daughter
on the stage since her last appearance
IN San Francisco, when she appeared
for week In a stock company during
visit to her native city.
Mr.. Best says his daughter was reso-
lutte even in her schoolgirl days to be-
come an actress, and was educated with
that end in view. She left San Fran
cisco sixteen years ago and took the
stage name of Katherine Grey. She
first attracted attention in New York
by her remarkable beauty, but the
managers soon discovered in her the
rare combination, beauty and talent.
Mr.. Best Travelled all the way to New
York to see his daughter play the lead
ing role in arms and the Man." with
which Richard Mansfield opened his
own theater, the Garrick.
1t was a great surprise to Mr.. Best
when Miss Grey wrote him that she
had engaged with Mr.. Beck's company
for their western engagement, as she
has steadily refused to leave New
York. Miss Grey has been starred in a
new production each season for the last
eight years, her last great success be-
ing as Christine in 1.-THE Reckoning"
