"a woman's walk is the key to her
character"
Mrs. Mildred Manly Easton, clubwoman
and founder Of the Life as a Fine Art
Club, says so. Her statement, made in a
caused widespread comment. and visit
ed her at her home, to interview her on
the subject.
Not only can you tell a woman's char
acter by her walk, Mrs. Easton told me,
but you can even determine her mental
state.
THE mind and motion find expression
through the body. They show either de-
generation or regeneration.
Thought and feeling and action go to
make a man and his character. Will and
choice may also be included. the different
combination OF these three making the
millions of different characters and diff
ferent types which we find in the world"
There are three distinct styles Of walk
ing, Mrs. Easton says. They are:
ConceIted Walk.
No. 1.-The aggressive walk. In this
style a person struts along with chest
thrown out and body swaying from side
to side. 1t is the walk of the conceited
man, and, according to Mrs. Easton, the
aggressive walker is trying to bluff the
world and make every one believe he is
something which he Is not. The aggres-
sive walker. she says. generally stamps
on his heels as he walks.
No. 2-The limping walk. This style Is
a slow, almost creeping walk, as though
the person were gliding along on his toes.
1t Is the walk of the irresponsible man,
and shows a weak character.
No. 3-The medium walk This Is the
walk. Mrs. Easton says, which We should
all cultivate 1t is a balanced walk which
shows sincerity of purpose and the desire
and ambition to accomplish big things
also the ability. 1t is not hurried walk,
neither is il slow. The balanced walker
is deliberate, free and easy. He or she
is at all times ready to grasp an idea.

SUITABLE CLOTHES
INCOUNTRY HOUSES
When You Are Invited to a
House Party.

The advent of the automobile has
changed many things. Among them the
length of the season of the country house
Whereas formerly the country house
was chiefly a summer resort, nowadays
by means of the convenient motor one is
able to remain all year around in the
country and still keep in touch with the
doings in town. House parties have
grown in popularity, so that now people
of wealth design their houses with the
idea of lavish entertaining, and even the
hospitable out-of-town housekeeper of
moderate means takes pleasure in well
coming her city friends over the week.
end.
In choosing the clothes to take with
her on the country house visits. the well
dressed woman must. of course, take in
to consideration the conditions Of the
place for which she is bound Whether
her wardrobe shall be simple or elabo-
rate must be governed by the sort of
party she expects to join, although there
are certain things that she will be pretty
sure to need in any case.
A pretty dinner frock is a necessity

WOMANS CHARACTER CAN
BE JUDGED BY THE WAY
SHE CARRIES HER BODY
By ETHEL wRENN.

He Is composed. He shows that he Is
always on an even keel.
Between these three styles there are
many different types which are exag-
gerations or notifications, according TO
Mrs. Easton.
THE different types Of walking may be
expressed in this manner" Mrs. Easton
continued. The aggressive walker Is
like a granite rock. The limping walker
Is like water, which is very easily led
away. The medium walker is like
hickory sapling, deep rooted, strong and
1.-the. He is ready to bend under each
impulse, but is strong enough to come
back to his original posture.
1T is possible to tell thief by MS
walk. 1t is either slow and slouchy, as
though he were walking on eggs, or 50
'open-faced' that 1t is apparent to even
casual observer that it is deceitful.
Frivolous Woman Wiggles.
Then there is the frivolous woman
and her walk is a telltale Of her real
character She wiggles and waggles
along, takes mincing steps, and you
know at once that she is sly and de-
ceitful. She wanders everywhere and
never settles down.
''Hesitating steps, accompanied by an
apologetic manner, disclose a soul that Is
filled with insincerity, and an overwhelm-
ing conceit is expressed by a tilt of the
head and a stepping forward on the tips
of the toes that is not the least bit at
tractive.
You can tell an angry woman by her
walk. There is a certain hitchiness
about her shoulders and a scoffing look
on her face which betrays her perturbed
mental condition. I can also tell whether
or not a person loves me by his or her
walk.
Some people think that an affected
walk makes them more attractive, but
that Is a mistake. Instead Of showing
them off in the right light. 1t reveals
the worst that there is in them.
TRUE culture aims for the balanced
walk, and every one should try to Guilt
yate It."

Little Bedtime Tales ,, EDITH nAxs.s
By EDITH HAVENS
BOBBY THE MOUNTAIN CLIMBER

Straight up the mountain side they
went with the woods all about them,
over great rocks, across rushing noun
tain streams. The cries of many kinds
of birds came from the distance and the
wind sang pretty song among the trees.
"Oh, isn't it fne?" shouted Bobby.
"Are you tired?" asked his father.
"Not Bit" came the quick answer.
And then they came to the top and
what Bobby saw made him gasp with
delight. What sight it was. 1t seemed
as if he could see the whole world be-
fore him. How little the lake looked
away off down below and he marvelled
at the other mountains all about him.
And the sky was more perfectly blue
than Bobby had ever seen it before.
Mr.. Small pointed out a tiny speck
away off down in the valley. THAT is
our cottage, Bobby" he said. And the
little boy could hardly believe it. 1t
seemed no bigger than baseball.
OF course the trip down the mountain
was just as wonderful and that night
very tired but happy boy told his
mother, as he kissed her good night,
that it was the best day he had ever had.

SEWING G-ROOM HELPS
FOR BUSY WOMEN

Here are a few hints that may help
you on your troublous way:
When you buy gauze union suits for
the summer, baste a half-inch-wide tape
around the open edges, stitching the
tape by machine This will prevent both
stretching and tearing Of the material
In sewing dress shields to a kimono
blouse. where there seems no place to
attach them, make little bolero of thin
lawn, buy washable shields and sew mar
row elastic on them for shoulder straps,
and sew them into the bolero. stitching
the shields in all around the binding.
Then cut out the material under the
shields. and either cut out the neck line
In front and back. or fasten the front
with tapes. This bolero can be washed
and used over and over again with diff
ferent blouses.
II the cuffs of your linen shirt waist
are frayed. bind them with color and put
piping Of the same color around the
box pleat or opening IN front The waist
viii wear longer, and look like new.
Paper patterns often call for larger
amount of material than is really neces-
sary After you have used pattern
that you intend to use again, mark upon
1t the amount OF material actually re-
quired. and then when you have rem
nant or a limited amount of goods you
can always tell Just what pattern will
make your garment satisfactorily.

GIRL WHOALLOWS MEN TO
GALL AT HER OFFICE IS
NUISANCE TO EMPLOYER
By JULIA CHANDLER MAxz.

Early, arn't your 1 said to the Busy
Man, with whom 1 had an appointment
at noon when he appeared at 1850.
Turned my office over to that snob.
Just as well, you know, for after he drops
in Miss GIlmore's attention is so divided
that she doesn't know chalk from cheese.
Making mistakes in her figures lately,
too. the Busy Man thought aloud.
I knew perfectly well that Miss Gilmore
was the Busy Mans head bookkeeper,
and a trusted empIoye, so I could not
quite connect his broken sentences.
Tell me-" I said.
Makes Mistakes in Accounts.
why, you know that girl is worth her
weight in gold, or was to me; until some
luckless moment brought that sawdust
chap into her life, who now invites her
out to lunch every day in the week, and
has formed the habit of dropping around
about 11:9O and waiting for her. She had
as well go when he comes as try to work
until u, for she is plainly frustrated, and
lately there have been serious mistakes
made in her accounts. and 1 would wager
my life that they have occurred between
11:3O and noon.

What can I do for your I asked
oh, nothing he said, Just waiting for
Miss Gilmore and his tone implied that
he thought my inquiry of his business
in my office a presumption.
Offered Him n Hint.
II pulled out my watch, and suggested
politely that it lacked a half hour OF

Gilmore would not be disengaged until
that time.
No trouble at all to wait ne smiled
sweetly, and it required all the self-pos-

him by the seat of the trousers and
throwing him into the street.
TO get control of my temper I left
the Office" said the Busy Man.
of course it can't go on. I shall have
talk with her this afternoon and sug-
gest that it might be just as well If her

sigh. the reason for which is that the
young woman in question has been with
the Busy Man for many years, and
knows every detail OF his business
Making serious Mistake.
She is a capable woman, but she IS
making serious mistake.
Many a business man would not take
the trouble to make the suggestion which
her employer has expressed It as his pur-
pose to make to Miss Gilmore.
They would follow the more simple plan
of filing the young woman's place. but
the Busy Man has a big, kind heart, and
it hurts him deep down to see clever.
capable woman deliberately lay obstacles
across her path to business success.
Men do not enjoy stumbling across an
admirer Of some young woman empfoye
in their offices every time they open the
street door.
They are right in thinking it a nui-
sance, and the girl who allows men to
call for her at her place OF business does
herself an injustice.
Her employer is the owner of her time
during the working day, and has an
honest right to the concentration of her
mind upon the work which she is there
to do.
Cannot Serve Two Masters.
Amy woman who is thinking OF social
pleasures cannot give accounts or other
business matters an undivided attention
without which success Is impossible.
, think it mistake for the business
girl to break into the middle of the day
with luncheon with a man friend, even
If he does not call at her Office for her.
1t takes a deal of time, and she cannot
feel the same heart-whole enthusiasm In
her work throughout an afternoon fol-
lowing a gay little social luncheon at
noon with men friends.
But should she find the noon hour meal
no interruption to her work in the after
noon, she VIII be a wise woman to pro-
hibit her men friends from forming the
habit Of dropping into her place of busi-
ness around lunch time.
Whether II is the truth or not, a girls
employer gets the impression that she
is not attending to his business when she
has a trail of admirers following in her
wake during the hours for which he
pays her.
