LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
THE ART OF STANDING.
sx BLANCHE BEACON

There is a good deal to this little
understood art, assure you. So many
women, that can sit and walk with
grace, stand so ungracefu11y.
For instance, if you are inclined to
be short never stand near anything
or anybody who is tall. Pick out a
low backed chair, for instance, and
stand beside it. Never stand direct
1y against an expanse of wall, for the
ceiling, towering above you, dwarfs
you too much.
Never stand near a tall person. I'M
less you can manage SO that chair.
table, tall vase or a third party is be-
tween you SO that the line of contrast
may be broken.
Do not try to add TO your height by
wearing exaggerated high heels It
gives funny, toddling gait to your
walk, and tits you forward absurdly.
In a later article will say some
thing about dress for short women.
But now for the tall girl.
If you are very tall. ,shun the very
small table or chair as your shorter
sister must seek it out. A stretch Of
wall makes q good background for
you, and to stand in a window or
doorway is also good. Do not wear
fiat heels unless you are positive they
will not harm your feet You know.
there are very few feet that ought to
indulge in fat heels. Sometime I
shall scoId about THAT.
Note any natural inclination that
you may have to stand badly. Prac-
tice standing before mirror. Some
of us look graceful if we advance one
foot slightly while standing - others
do not
Study yourself to see which and
what becomes you.
Try not to s1ouch backwards or for
wards while standing. Haven't you

that alarmed his sense of justice. A
horrible suspicion that he had nisjudg-

Mary Turner herself, too. was in a

There came a thrill in her heart each
time she thought OF tlat-that she

of course, and yet Here, as always
she broke OF, a hot flush blazing in her
cheeks. @
Mary Turner was just ready for bed
when note came by messenger who
waited for no answer, as he told the
yawning maid As Mary read the
roughly scrawled message, she was
caught in the grip OF terror. The man
who had saved her from death had
yielded 70 temptation AS he had
saved her so she must save him. She
hurried into the gown she had just
put on Then she went to the tele-

framed in the faint light that came
from the single burner in the corridor

The next instant he had stepped
within the room and Chicago Red had
bounced on his victim, the huge hand
