U
Avoid High Heels
and Feet at 45
Degree Angle
II isn't being done. Standing with
the feet at an angle of 45 degrees it
;k longer considered desirable, ao
cording to Eitie Steen Kittleson. -who
gave the opening lecture of a new
ycle at her studio in the Baird build
ns Wednesday noon. The advisab
lily of such a position for the feet
s a theory exploded during the late
iv.tr. Flat feet and some of the other
ioot ills come from that position,
"Avoid high heels if youj have a
weak hack," was another bit of ad
vice Riven Mrs. Kittleson's pupils.
I hey throw the body out of plumb,"
"It is harder to sit well than to
.uiud well," said the .peaker.
demonstrating the right and wrong
way of doing each.
"We arc natural up to the age of
. psychologists tell us," Mrs. Kittle
son informed. "After that we be
come, self-conscious."
"The body, voice and wind are the
only means of expression we have,"
she said. "We should work for poise
in each of these." 1'oise, grace and
endurance were named as the three
things for which we should strive.
Romance in Origin
Of Superstitions
HOLDING A HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations of a Wife
Spots in Finger Nails.
Sometimes upoiv examining jour
finger nails you will see a little white
snot which, as the nail grows, move
slowly towatd the finger's end. The
superstitious will" tell you that the
little, white spot means money coin
ing: to you, due to arrive when the
uliile spot reaches the end of tlia
nail a very common superstition.
Sir Thomas Browne (1 605-1682),
mentions it as being very ancient in
his day and ascribes its origin to
the tendency which people have to
consider any bodily sympton which
tney do not understand as a4
prophecy. 1 he "British Apollo" in
1708 published a learned article
scoffing at the superstition and ex
plaining that the white spots in the
nails were "glittering particles,"
generally mixed with the red particle
of the blood, but which bad hap
pened to get loose. Medical science
was evidently badly equipped to bat
tle with superstition in thse days.
But the superstition in question
dates away back into the primitive
ages when man's hair and nails, liv
ing and growing parts of 'himself
were held to be peculiarly con
nected with his destiny. A white
spot slowly advancing up the naif
must mean something; as the spot
vvas white the "something'' was
probably good. As time passed and
man began to use currency the good
was conjectured to be money. A
regular cult grew up of divination by
the finger nails under the name of
onychomancy and as we know from
Flautus, the educated Roman of 2,000
years aso watched the spots on his
nails, with the same interest as the
most' superstitious Yankee of today.

Where It Started
May Day.
The celebration of May Day has
its origin in a bad Roman harvest.
In the year 238 li. C. the crops failed
in Italy, and as a propitiatory offer
ing to the gods, the feast of Floralia,'
lasting from April 28. to May 3, was
instituted. That year the crops were
successful, and the feast was kept up
each year. ,

What Happened When Bride and
Groom Rtached Home. ,
There they are! I can see Uncle
Alfred pointing out the place to the
tuxi nun."
Marion's sharp eyes discovered the
returning travelers first, and her
clear voice heralded their coining.
The next minute the taxi turned into
the Durkce driveway, and I heard
Marion's urgent whisper to her
mother.
"Mother, what shall I call Uncle
Alfred's wife? I've always called
her Miss Leila before, but she's a
Mrs. now,"
"Why not tall her Aunt Leila?"
Lillian suggested.
"Oh, I'd love to I But, you see, I
don't know her so well as I do
L'nele Alfred, and I was afraid she
wouldn't like me to."
"I'm quite sure she'U like it," Lil
Imn assured her, and the taxi drew
up to the veranda steps, and Alfred
springing out, caught his waiting lit
tle mother In a bear hug, while the
bride, with Dicky's quickly proffered
assistance, alighted almost as swiftly
and rushed into her sister's arms.
Tha Right Note.
I think both Lillian and I, specta
tors of this reunion, were psychically
aware of a certain tension in the
mental atmosphere. Not on the part
of the bride and groom, one could
see their bubbling happiness with
half an eye. But that there was
both renunciation and jealous fear
for a loved one's supremacy in the
minds of both Leila's sister and Al
fred's mother was easily discern
ible. I was conscious of a certain ten
s'on in my own mind, predicated up
on my knowledge of the uncertainty
of Mrs. Durkee's moods. How would
she greet her new daughter-in-law?
The manner of that greeting and
welcome would sound the keynote of
their future relations and I hoped
intensely that my ear would catch a
full, true pitch.
Even as the thought came to my
mind Her Fluffiness disengaged her
self from her ion's arms,
"But where's my new daughter?"
said in her most charming way, with
her most delightful smile, one which
Dicky declares would "charm the
most Bolshevistically-inclined bird
from its wild freedom."
"Right here, mother, dear,"' Leila
carolled, leaving Edith's arms, and
rushing up to her mother-in-taw.
Her taller figure stooped to the tiny
one, and the two women were locked
in a close, emotional embrace, while
Alfred stood by beaming fatuously.
Edith drew a long breath, whether
of approval or some less pleasurable
emotion I could not tell, while Lil
lian and I involuntarily glanced at
each other and I fancied I read the
same relief in her eyes which I knew
was mirrored in my own.
It was Dieky, of course, who
turned the tensenese of the moment
into laughter. I used to think that he
acted the part of the clown from
wanton high spirits. I am beginning
to see he often saves the deteriora
tion of a moment from sentiment to
pathos by his antics.
A Situation Saved.
"Alf, old dear," he said sorrow
fully. "Hain't there nobody goin' to
weep over me. I rolled in only a
few minutes before you. Did I get
any tears or kisses or embraces? I'll
tell the world, all I had handed to
me were shrieks of 'Don't rumple
my gown I"
The falsetto with which he had
mimicked Mrs. Durkee changed to
a deeper tone as he added:
"If it hadn't been for my little
sweetheart here I'd have gone forth
into the croo-el world to die alone."
I knew that he had caught sight of
the child's expressive, humiliated
face when he said that nobody had
kissed him, and had hastened to make
amends. Her face changed its ex
pression so suddenly that she gave
the effect of laughing and crying at
once, but little Mrs. Durkee's laugh
ing voice fortunately took our at
tention from her.
"You may kiss me now if you
like. Dicky-bird," she said, with her
pretty lips adorably pouted toward
him. i m so nappy now ; aont care
it my complexion does come off."
Dicky looked at her doubtfully,
then gravely drew a handkerchief
from his pocket, pretended to dust
her face, then looked at it, and bent
toward her.
"I guess it s safe," he . said
solemnly.
With "a swift, laughing movement
Her Fluffiness ducked the kiss, ad
ministered a sound box on his ear,
and retreated toward the stairway.
"Pick up some of those bags and
make yourself useful," she ordered,
"instead of trying to do some poor
screen comedian out of his job,
Vou'd make a much better porter
than you would a movie comic.
Come on, Leila, dear. I want to
show you your rooms."
Dicky and Alfred bept obediently
to the bags, and we all trooped up
the stairs after Leila and her mother-in-law.
Indeed, we could not have
stayed behind if we had wished, for
the imperative voice of our hostess
commanded our attendance. And
as I had hoped a few minutes be
fore that Mrs. Durkee would sound
the right note of welcome, so now
I earnestly wished that Leila would
be sincerely pleated and show her
pleasure at the surprise her hus
band's mother had planned for her.

Jewel, Flower. Color
Symbols for Today
By MILDRED MARSHALL.
The ct's-eye, today's talismanic
stone, i symbolic of treachery. On
this day, however, it warns its wear
ers of the approach of deceit, and
protects them from false friends and
plots of all kinds.
Today's natal gem is the ruby,
which stands for courage and great
bodily strength. To those born on
an anniversary of this day, it brings
great joy through personal attain
ment, the bravery to vanquish all
mental difficulties, and the ability
to overcome despair and disappoint
ment. Crimson is today's color; the an
cients believed that it protected its
wearers from contagious diseases,
and endowed them with great
strength and courage.
The spring's most fragrant flower,
the hyacinth, brings courage, hope,
and health to the home where it
appears at this time, according to
an old legend.
