TOWALK CORRECTLY
ACCOMPLISHMENT DECIDEDLY
WORTH cULTIvATlNG.
A Few Simple Rules That Must Be
Remembered BY the Woman
Who Would Acquire Grace
-Poise Of the Body.

To walk gracefully the ball Of the
foot must be put down first and the
toes pointed ont. This angle makes
It possible to "step away" in the
sense Of liehtness.
More ankle action Is required to
walk correctly than is realized by
many persons. for unless that Joint
moves easily the gait inevitably is nat
footed. as the whole sole comes in
contact simultaneously with the floor.
giving a heavy and numbering move
ment highly suggestive of rolling"
II is to be understood that unless
the shoulders are well thrown back
and the chest expanded a graceful
walk is impossible. so 1t is necessary
to properly distribute the weight to
make a correct balance. and this is
done only by holding the shoulders In
position and not permitting the lower
part of the torso to be unduly promi.
nent. The spine must be straight. yet
lean forward. so slight as not to be
perceptible. Is essential. otherwise
the abdomen is Incorrectly placed.
The lean is not from the shoulders or
waist. but from the hips. and the
shoulders. thrown back. counterbal-
ance any tendency to tipping forward.
Remembering the Importance OF
holding the body correctly, attention
may be given to the feet. and should
there be a sensation of awkwardness
in trying to place the foot SO the ball
Is first to touch the ground.- some
ankle exercise should be practiced.
One OF these is to cross the feet. so
that one is entirely removed from the
floor. and twist 1t forward. back and
around. being certain that the work is
done from the ankle Joint and not
from the knee. 1t should be needless
to add that no boots or shoes are to
be worn while doing this work. An
other movement Is to point the foot
extremely. making as straight line
rs may be from ankle to toe. While
in that position the toe Is moved in
semi-circular form as far around as
1t can go without being painful.
When stiffness of the joints makes
the exercises painful relief may be
secured by first rubbing the ankles
with a mixture OF one ounce of rose
water. gill OF white brandy. four
! ounces of mutton tallow. two ounces
| OF olive oil, ~ ounces of virgin wax
and half of one grain of musk
The wax and tallow are melted In a
