Pressure for Neutrality.
Meanwhile the German embassy in
London is exerting every effort of
diplomacy to induce Great Britain to
hold aloof from the conflict and to
bring public opinion to Germany's
side. The counsellor of the German
embassy issued a strong appeal for
the neutrality of Great Britain, as
serting that Germany would agree to
keep her fleet from attacking the
northern and western coasts of France
If England would pledge neutrality
and argued that England would gain
more in the end by standing outside
the European war and using her in
fluence as mediator when the moment
was right.
Plea by Ambassador.
1t said in part:
The maintenance of British neu-
tralitv would in no way injure France.
On the contrary it might be argued
that by remaining neutral. Great Brit
ain would give France exactly as
much strategic assistance and a
good deal more effective diplomatic
help, as according to all reliable in
formation there is no intention of
sending British troops to the conti-

Gracefulness is only a state of per

system. A woman may be developed
In her muscles through vigorous ex-
ercise. yet be awkward and ungrace-
full Another woman may be compare
lively weak in muscular structure, yet
through her gracefulness be in good
health and have strong vitality.
A great deal depends upon how she
starts the day-how she gets out of
bed in the morning and how near to
the gazelle she approaches natures
demands. Even If a woman of forty
Is awkward she can overcome much
OF the defect by following these rules
and "don'ts."
Don't jump out of bed suddenly. It
gives the heart too sudden a Jolt and
In time will make 1t knock like the
engine of a motor car which has been
treated the same way.
Don't get out of bed the moment
you awaken. Keep quiet for a few
moments to let the conscious brain
cells return to their normal activity.
Next, stretch your arms and hands
above your head, twisting wrists and
fingers. Move slowly but rather forci-
bly, all the upper extremities. Then
extend, stretch, each lower limb until
you hear every joint down to the toes
crack and crate. Get out of bed SLOW
ly. and again, without jerking, stretch
every movable part Of your body
neck, back, abdomen.
Now, when you have gone through
the very preliminary movements.
which are the real reasons for all the
wonderful gracefulness seen in active
animals. you are ready for your cold
