Acquire Poise in Walking
Orace Is Impossible Unless Dns's
Weight la Wall Adjusted :
Tbe first essential of graceful.
walking- Is poise. The weight ol the
body mast be adjusted over the balls
ol the feet. Iu correot poise, tbe
ohsst ulwsys leads, tbe abdomen ra
ce lea, the baok aud head assume
thair right Bositlons. It goes with
wt saying that there can be no
grace in a hasty walk.. -Haute causes
irregular aud, uncertain movements
of all portions of the body, netmots
from a woman's dignity and makes
rhythm Impossible. .
Activity aud right use ot the feet
are the suooud essential of a graceful
walk The fast have a doable duty
to perforin in bearing the weight
and propelling the body. When the
standing position is right, one leg la
swung rhvht forward from the bip,
t'.ie knee acting in harmony, and the
bull of the foot touching first. Toe
wight is so quickly transferred that
tin he! iuaV-1 no noise. Women
who walk heavily leave the weight
o i the heel snd are never graceful.
The general saying that oue should
"walk on the balls of tbe feet" has
lei Boms Hyio to try not touching
tho hwls at all. Tbe r.ult is a min'
oing gait wholly wiiho.it dignity' or
grace.
The position of the fat should be
a talght. Tlio weight ot the body
b.-in? on oue foot wliilo the other ts
swinging forward, the strongest pol
tion of the foot should be taken,
whioh I practically -itraight. As
children are al ays tnuqht to "turn
thoir toes out" thU Hill surprise

The frirrligs of tbe sooulders Is an
important element la graceful walk
ing. Nervousness, salf-oonsclous-
uess and hi'e u,ow iu stiffuess of
th j shoulders, also in the aggressive
clhowa and clasped hands. If the
chest is well np and forward, tbe
shoulders will take their natural
position and tbe arms hang at the
aidos. Forgot your shoulders and
think only of your cheat.

The Income Tax
The overwhelming vote, by whioh
tho Income Tax amendment to tho
Constitution of tbe United State,
passed the Honse of Represents
lives, a votoof 317 against 14, shows
how strong a hold the principle of
this tr J has upou the pot p'o.
The millionaire senators, and
others of like charuolcr, claim that
people who have no incomes are very
anxious to have a tax placed on
those who hnve Incomes.
It is a well known fact that those
Who have large properly interests
re a grentor expense to the Govern
inent and gel more favors therefrom
than those who have small property
iitterasts, and it is only just and
right that-large and moderate a' zed
income,- should pay an luoomavtax
a a proper and just means of bear
ing their share of the harden of sup
porting tbe Government.
The proposition lo amend the Con
stitution of tbe United States enab-
ing Congress to' tax incomes was
proposed by Presldeut Taft himself,
n 1 he Is giving his personal atten
don to the matter, which means that
tins matter bnvlug passed tbe Houre
iml Senate by the requisite two
thirds voti will, be ratified by three,
fourths o' the States of the Union,
when it becomes a part of our Con
stitution, as provided. This Is one
t the greatest victories that the poo
ale have ever won and tbe oredit for
the Fame is largely and almost whol
y due to the wisdom, patriotism
and honesty of President Taft.
"Tho priaeut tariff bill embodies a
provision taxing the net incomes of
jorporations 3 per cent ihat are earn
ng $0000 aud over, but as a general
income tax hns been declared uncon.
stltutional by the Supreme Court ot
(he United States, it Ij now ueros-
s.iry to amend that imiiiortti docu
ment in order that Congress may
levy suob a tax.
President Taft also took an active
part in shaping the actions of the
TJonference Committee in recon
structing the tariff bill that has
paftsad the Honse and which later
passed the Senate In different shape,
nd tbe President is entitled to a
large share ot the credit in securing
a revision downward of tbe tariff
which was understood to bo the in
evitable result of his election.
President Tuft has convinced the
paople ot this country that when be
makes a promise In the campaign,
that he proposes to csrry that prom
ise out when he is entrusted with
;he power to do so. The beneficial
resnlts thnt will follow the passage
of the now tariff are already in evl
denoe and signs of a reviving pros
perity, and healthy business condi
tions are iu evidence everywhere.
The manufacturers are now work
ing On full time, the railroads are us
ing all of their cars, giving orders
for tbe building of many new ones,
improving and extending their lines
and the great steel trust has more
orders than it can flit, so the wheels
of prosperity are beginning to "get
bnsy" as they wero before the panio
of 1907.
