FEATURES. Style and Health in Right Posture DIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘<P ARS - BTN RN E ALK ER IT IS EASY TO SEE WHICH OF TH AND WALKING NTIAL TO THAT MUCH-DESIRED EL] THE ART OF STANDING ESSE Every woman should learn to stand and walk gracefully. These are two| great ets that are essential to | style, which is said to be quite as| desirable as mere beauty when it| comes to attraction. Fortunately there are few women who cannot acquire these desirable qualities. The woman who is active about the house much of the time can learn them in the round of duties. The mother who holds her baby in one arm while she does necessary things, and there are no mothers who care for their babies who do not have to be so busied at times, must realize that she must stand erect afterwards or her poise will be poor. It is a simple matter to throw the balance to the other foot and to raise the shoulder that has been lowered when car ing the baby, if only the necessity is recognized. Often a poor carriage comes from neglect of some little thing that can be corrected readily. It should be remembered that knees and ankles should be kept close together when standing or a woman looks awkward, especially now that skirts are so short that legs as well as ankles and feet are visible. It is surprising how many women stand with their ankles 8 or 10 inches apart. When light stockings and dark shoes are worn this awkward position is_striking. The women who stand thus have no conception of how ungainly they appear or they surely would never stand so again.. It too eas matter to rectify. They should with their ankles close together. When walking put one foot a little in front of the other and not merely forward. This tends to keep the feet in line. You may remember that ‘Trene Castle always walked in this way, and she was noted for her grace in walking as well as dancing. Hold Arms Correctly. Another thing to bear in mind is that the arms should fall close to the sides. Elbows and wrists should not be far from the body. If close, the position of the arms will be right. E WOMEN HAS ACQUIRED GRACEFULLY, WHICH IS MENT KNOWN AS STYLE. Moreover, they should be relaxed and not held stiffly. Try walking with the arms thus relaxed and the elbows and wrists el to the bodv. You will be struck by the fact that there is little motion of the arms. They will not swing back and forth like pendu- lums. They will fall gracefully and | easily at the side. Double Chin. is_possible to reduce and mini- mize, double chins by the poise of the head. They are accented, strengthened and even developed by the wrong posture. Hold the head high and chin up, not out. Raise the crown of the head as high as possible by pressing it upward. Re- member that it is the crown of the head, not the front of it that should be elevated. Hold “the arms lightly and relaxed at the sides in the posi- tion described. Stand with the feet close together. ~As you raise the crown of the head, the back straight- ens, the head is well poised, and the best and most attractive posture is attained. Breathe freely and easily so that there is nothing stiff about the position of the body. Exercise While you Work. Fortunately for the busy housewife and homemaker, this exercise is one that can be taken and held while standing at the sink, while walking about doing the round of home duties, as well as when walking on the street. No special time is needed to acquire a good poise. If you remember to take steps in line with each preceding one, not in lany exaggerated way, but easily and simply, a graceful walk will result. If a woman stands well and walks correctly, and does so uncon- sciously because it has become a habit, she has acquired style in hersel?. Gar- ments will fit better, hats well placed on the head will suit the contour more artistically. The whole bearing and costuming will prove most attractive. Tt is well worth the effort to acquire such grace—and it may be had at no cost whatever. It Present Craze for Small Felt Hat BY MARY MARSHALL. A mnew black felt hat for Easter was considered an amusing tion in Paris a few weeks ago. ‘ Bright straw hats trimmed with gorgeous flawers may do very well if innova- ORCHID FELT HAT WITH PEARL PIN HOLDING BRIM UP IJN FRONT.

They say that the craze for the small felt hat has almost bankrupted a number of the French millinery houses. Realizing this, the milliners | here, there and elsewhere are eager to show more elaborate hats, that would vield more elaborate profit, but while they show these with one hand, realizing ‘that they .are negessary to profitable business, with the other hand they show the newest version of the little, plain felt hat, knowing that this may be the only hat that .certain ‘women 1 want to buy. Meantime the new felt hats are as tempting as can be.. The felts are of all the smart colors and as light and soft as is consistent with their use. They are unbound and the trimming is frequently made entirely of match- ing felt. A Pierrot shaped felt, with a liitle brim upturned at the front, shows an ornament of the felt resembling a large poinsettia-at the right side. In France the shades most in demand are pastel tints of yellow, fuchsia, petunia, blue and- rose. White- is constantly favored, and as a. contrast to the widely'worn colored hats little black shapes have an air of great smartness. (Copyright, 1925.)

The planetary aspects.of tomorrow, although not very favorable during the early morning, show a decided im- provement at about noon and shortly thereafter become excelleni—a condi- tion that is maintained during the re- mainder of the day, and culminates in extremely stimulating vibrations. Pre- paratory work should occupy your at- tention at first and then, your plans definitely decided upon, full advantage should be taken of an opportunity so propitious and .promising for the ac- tive and forceful prosecution of your endeavors. The afternoon and eve- ning, too, will stir the affections and, notwithstanding the success that is assured for material work, romance will also be awakened and reciprogal love engendered. An engagement en- tered into or a marriage solemnized will be enduring and provocative only of happiness. Children who make their first ap- pearance in the world tomorrow will, so far as physical conditions are con- cerned, lead fairly normal lives and the trifing ailments to which they will be subject in their infancy will readily vield to ordinary treatment. They will have rather nervous tem- peraments and show signs of acting on impulse rather than on reason. Their impulses will not, however, be bad or malicious, and they will always be actuated by the best of intentions. Nevertheless an effort should be made to curb the emotional side of their characters, as though their actions will not harm others they might, un- fortunately, harm themselves. If tomorrow is your birthday, you are a normgl person, with normal tastes and desires: you are moderately ambitious, not so much for the world’s goods or position as for steady intel- lectual advancement. You take rather a serious view of life and are not disposed to consider it a playground, but rather a preparatory school for higher and better things. You possess a keen intellect, a clear mind and much reasoning ability; you do not capitalize these assets to their full extent, and are content to acquire learning for the sake of’learning. As a lover, .your logical mind deserts you and you can only see in the object of your affection, not the vir- tues that he or she actually possess but those with which you have so prodigally and imaginatively endowed him or her. You are very demonstra- tive and, in order to be happy, de- mand reciprocity in the most absolute form. Well known persons born on this date are: Robert C. Winthrop, states- man and orator; George W. Childs, journalist: George E. Woodberry, author and poet; Henry Cabot Lodge, Senator; Frank Crane, journalist, and Mme. Nordica, singer. (Copyright. 1925.) COLOR CUT-OUT LITTREE CINDERELLA. Ella, the éinder ‘Wench. Of course every one of you knows the story of “Cinderella.” ~ No_doubt you have all been wanting color cul- outs for it. Well, here is Cinderella, herself, and even in her rags you can see how very beautiful she is. But, in spite of her great beauty, Ella, for that was her real name, was very miserable, for her own mother was dead and her stepmother was ex- tremely cruel to her. She had two daughters of her own who were ugly girls, but were cast in the shade by Ella’s loveliness. This made the step- mother jealous. She spoiled her own daughters dreadfully, but poor Ella was forced to toil in the kitchen with nothing but rags to wear. Because she often sat in the corner close to the ashes to warm herself they called her “Cinderella Color Cinderella’s hair golden, her dress blue, and her shawl brown. Mount her on a piece of heavy paper, cut her out and save her. (Copyright, 1825.) HOW IT STARTED BY JEAN NEWTON. Calling It “Claret.” It is true that claret is the name of a red Bordeaux wine, that it is fre- quently applied ' to other red wines and that no wine that is not red could be called claret. Yet the popular as- sumption that there is' some connec- tion between the name ‘‘claret” and the color of the wine is incorrect. ‘We have “claret” from the French “clair” which goes back to the Latin “clarus,” meaning simply “clear.” The significance of the term is com- prehensible to those who have at- tempted the feat of homemade wine, which is very difficult to make clear and which, after straining and re- straining, still leaves some cloudiness. Research has not made entirely clear why the word should so defi- nitely name a red wine. First wines, however, were red, and the presump- tion is that it was ear in the de- velopment of the wine industry /that the word which was to distinguish wine ‘which had been refined of cloud- iness and impurities from the coarser kind happened to be applied to a red wine. And this it has named ever since. (Copyright, 1825.)

NOS AIRES, Argentina, March —Some nice afternoon when you feel like taking a walk—stroll down Florida! There are many famous promenades in the cifies of the world, but none more interesting than this narrow little street running through the cexter of Buenos Aires. Maybe vyou have idled your way along Broadway or the Strand. Rue de la_ Paix, Pennsylvania avenue or Unter den Linden. Possibly your footsteps have led you by the way of the Bubbling Well road, Shangha or down the Street Called Straight. You may have wandered along The Chowk in Benares, or piously plod the Via Delorosso: there is a chance that you have ambled down the Ap- pian Way, or the Ginza in Tokio, or floated down the Grand Canal in Venice. Even so—even if vou have passed along them all—you should stroll down the Florida some sunny afternoon when you feel like taking a walk. The proper hour is 6 o'clock in the afternoon—I18 o'clock, as they sav here. The street is closed to all vehicular traffic between the hours of 5 and 7 o'clock in the afternoon. That is “El Paseo™ time. El paeso means “the passing”—the promenade—and, 1 would like to re mark, there is nothing like it any- where.

It was in La Paz, by the Plaza Mur rillo, that I first saw the paseo—the passing in review of the village senoritas before the ogling eves of the village sheiks. Again I watched them flaunt themselves along the Avenida Pedromontt in Valpol, and later in Santiago I spent an hour each_d: the Avenida de las Delicias while the boys and girls “passed” each other. The paseo is a relic of haremism— brought into Spain by the Moors, no doubt, and thence to Latin America.

Old Mr. Toad had spent the Winter buried in Farmer Brown's garden. It had been a wholly comfortable Winter. That is to Old Mr. Toad hadn't known anything about Winter. He had gone to sleep down in the ground deep enough to escape all danger of freezing. He had gone to sleep be. fore Jack Frost had done any real freezing and he had not awakened until after Jack st had left for good., Then one day he had dug his way out and had sleepily blinked up at Jjolly, round, bright Mr. Sun, for all the world as if he had merely had a nap instead of a sleep of balf a r a while he felt just sleepy, but as Mr. Sun warmed him he began to take a little interest in life.

Then he hopped over to a b plant and spent most the re. mainder of the day under one of the broad leaves, where he was well hid- STARTED WITHOUT ANY DELAY. den vet could peep out and see what | z0ing on. He had a feeling that to go somewhere and do something, but just where he wanted to go or what he wanted to do he couldn't think. . But late that afternoon as jolly round, red Mr. Sun was getting near the Purple Hills behind which he would go to bed, and the Black Shad- ows were getting ready to steal out across the Green Meadows and through all the Green Forest, a sound reached Old Mr. Toad, a sound that made him tingle all over. It was the sound of many voices in a great chorus. The voices were of his lit- tle cousins, the Hylas, which some folks call Peepers, and they were singing their Spring song over in the Smiling Pool. Then Old Mr. Toad knew where he wanted to go and what he wanted to do. He wanted to go to the Smil- ing Pool and he wanted to sing. Yes, the Smiling Pool and sing with his small cousins, the Hylas. So off he started without any delay. He had a long way to go. For such a slow traveler as Old Mr. Toad it was a long journey. He sighed as he thought of what a long journmey it would be back to. Farmer Brown's garden after the singing season was over. But thought of this didn’t stop him. He kept right.on going, hop, | hop, hipperty-hop, hop, hop, hipperty- | hop, until he had to rest.’ Then in| a few minutes he would start on again, hop, hop, hipperty-hop. Now he was so intent on getting to the Smiling Pool that he failed to use | his eyes as he should have, and with. out seeing him at all he almost ran into Jimmy Skunk. The first Old Mr. Toad knew of any one being about was when he was suddenly flipped over on his back. Jimmy had sim- ply reached out a little black paw, slipped it under Old Mr. Toad and turned him over. Old Mr. Toad was upset. He was upset in more ways than one. He was upset bodily and, what was worse, he was upset in his dignity. You know Old Mr. Toad has considerable dignity. He hops along in a_very solemn and dignified manner. Now all in a twink- ling he was flat on his back, which is a very undignified position to be in, and to get back on his feet again he dignified, not to say ridiculous, man- ner. And all the time Jimmy Skunk x;([l?od looking down at him and chuc- ng. At last Old Mr. Toad got on his feet again, and he was so swelled up with anger that you would hardly have known him. “But before he could say a word Jimmy Skunk flipped him on his back again. Poor. Old Mr. Toad' He was a wee bit frightened, for he wasn't quite certain just what Jimmy Skunk might mean to do. He knew that Jimmy was fond of Frogs and he wasn’t quite sure that Jimmy might not be going to try Toad for a change. * But Jimmy had no such thought. He had upset Old Mr. Toad from a spirit of mischief. It wasn't at all nice or kind of Jimmy, but he didn't intend any harm.
