Horse Trot and Fish Walk Now.

Vale the turkey trot and the tango.
Society is a-weary of these much dis
cussed dances, and, having lost favor.
the trot and the tango are on the road
to the realm of the forgotten.
The ''horse trot" and the still newer
fish walk" are the prime favorites of
the present moment, and earnest seek
ers after the latest approved novelty
are putting themselves through both
PAGES. Both dances originated in
Washington. the horse trot more than
a year ago and the fish walk within
the last few months.
The horse trot is livelier dance than
either the tango or the turkey trot and
is entirely devoid of the characteris-
ties which brought upon the two one
time favorites the thunders of the cler-
gy and the nondancing laity. In this
newest trot the partners face each
other and the man places his right
hand in the center of his partners
back, holding her at arms length and
at one side. He looks over her right
shoulder and she directs her gaze over
his right shoulder. The dance starts
with a running step of eight counts.
| the man going forward. The dancers
then proceed to trot back eight steps,
the woman advancing, after which al
| ternately they trot eight steps to the
right and eight to the left before they
| sidestep sixteen counts, turning to the
| right for eight counts and to the left
| for eight. 4 trot forward and back
| for eight counts each before coming
to a balance step of sixteen counts
| completes the dance.
The horse trot and fish walk are pri-
marily dances for young men and
women. They are dashed at lively
tempo in two-four measure, and fat
ty degeneration of the heart or an i'm
paired breathing apparatus is entire
ly out of place when the new dance
tunes start The fish walk, the in
| tricacies Of which are now engaging
the energies of dancing at the nation
al capital, starts with a skipping step,
the man going forward sixteen counts
and retreatfng sixteen counts The
partners then take four sliding steps to
the right and four to the left to com
pete the dances.
The fish walk is danced entirely on
the toes, the body is moved only from
the waist downward, the head is held
high, and the tempo is pitched at q
lively gait The music runs along te
a straight simple tune, gay and CHEEKY
with little of the syncopation which
has distinguished the dance music OF
the last few years.

Mrs. Wood said: There is a movement

P o L TT S j..

Some one on the Montpelier Argus
staff has been doing a bit of political
pipe-dreaming of late and presents the
following summary Of the situation in
the state:
1t is stated on good authority that
Judge George NJ. Powers of Morris
vile, when interviewed recently on
the question whether he would be a
candidate for governor in 1914, replied
in the negative. There had been ru-
mors in the air that Judge Powers
could receive the nomination of the
Progressives without question and
that there was a strong likelihood of
his nomination being endorsed by the
Republicans. Judge Powers has been
generally considered a Progressive.
The expiration of Senator Page 5
term as United States Senator two
years hence will no doubt demand the
attention of the politicians of the west
side of the state between now and
Rthen and friends of the judge you'd
not be surprised to see his name come
in for prominent mention in connec-
ton with the Office by the time the
voters are called on to select sue
| cessor to Senator Page.
Prominent Republicans had hoped tc
see both wings of the party come to
gether by the selection of a strong
candidate like Judge Powers Now
they are as far apart as ever and ii
is doubtful if they can agree on q
peace candidate.
Among the names mentioned in con
nection with the governorship are
Lieut.. Gov. Frank f. Howe, Secretar,
of State G. w. Bailey, State Highway
Commissioner Charles Gates and Roq
er w. Hulburd.
The Progressives have trotted out
no candidate to head their party tick
ct so far.

Now that Gettysburg has had her
50th anniversary Vicksburg comes next.
1t was here that Pemberton made his
futile stand against the strategy of
General Grant. Vicksburg's fall, nee
essarily followed few days later by
by the surrender of Port Hudson, open
ed the Mississippi to the Gulf and
split the Confederacy into two parts
1t enabled the Federal forces to shift
the burden of their attack further
east and to split the eastern section
again by marching through Georgia.
With this rift in the dream of the
"Stars and Bars it was then only
a stolid struggle to hold together.
Many great battles were still to be
fought, Chiekamauga, Chattanooga
Franklin, Nashville, the battles of the
Atlanta campaign and of Grants final
campaign against Richmond. But with
Gettysburg and Vickburg the star of
the Confederacy set.

Keep the W heels
Going

According to statement re-
Gently issued, the business of dry
goods and department stores of the
United States amounts to S2,094,-
$50, 800 yearly.
Millions of dollars are spent an
nually to advertise these stores.
More than 100000 women shop
daily, 9o%s, it is assumed, being
taken to the stores through the
powerful influences of advertising.
If every store in the United
States suddenly stopped advertising
stopped for a year-what would
happen2
Business would take a colossal
slump.
Many stores would run along un-
der their own momentum for
months and then come to stand
still. Others would come to a
speedy stop-would be out of bust
ness in few weeks.
All of which signifies that adver-
Using is the power that gives life
aud energy to business.
You must advertise to do busi-
ness. And to make that business
thrive, Mr.. Merchant, you must
keep on advertising.
Occasional advertising viii not

A Good Idea,

Serial stories can be taken out and
bound. Any one who understands book
binding can get really beautiful books
in this way. But the woman who does
not understand this art can cover
pieces of pasteboard little larger than
the magazine page with cloth, careful
" folded over and pasted down on the
wrong side about the edges, the inside
of the cover made neat by a square of
cloth or paper pasted over the edges Of
the covering of the other side. Two of
these covers with half a dozen holes
punched half an inch from the back
edges can be fastened together over
the story by means of silk cords run
through neat corresponding holes in
the pa es of the story.
