TEE PEBFEOT FOOT.
r*fate la I?g?H ? Um Petfal Estreamiea.
A great writer once aald: "The
vanity of woman niee bard."
Fooilab man! It never dlee at all.
and of all tbe prides there is none eo
bard to subdue ss that s woman takes
in her little feet and trim ankles.
Little feet, however, are a deformity
or rather feet too small to harmonise
with the figure are. Better that the
foot be too forge, if shabely, than too
small.
Think of a Juno who stands 6 feet 7
Inches and tips the ecalee at 180 pounds
teetering to and fro oo number 1 or
umber 2 feet! She should have a
number 4 foot at tbe very least, and a
numqer 6 would not be out of propor
uon.
To indte by the ideas of the Greeks
sod Romans, beautiful feet are those
which are large enough to carry the
body most gracefully. The ancients
semUed a stately carriage. Latin
poets speak of the gait of their beauties,
rather than of their feet.
"Shall I be tried in this manner?"
ways Juno, "I. who walk the queen of
the god??"
In the "Iliad," Homer paid homage
jo Tbetifi, the silver-footed queen; Mid
Paris, when making choice among the
many beautiful maidens brought before
him, did not forget the attractions
of their feet Their gait he marked,
as gracefully they moved,
And round their feet hi* eye sagacious
roved.
Poets and romanoers have ever raved
over the beauties of the "human
foot devine." "How beautiful are thy
feet with sandals, O, priuce's daugh
ler." was me greeting 01 uie onoe iu
Solomon'* Hong; and In spite of the
rich adornments of Judith's drees, her
sandal* "ravished tbe eye" of Holofernee,
their buckle* being studded
?ith precious gems, a faehlon which
later was forbidden to the Roman
matron.
Petrarch admires In bis Laura ber
walk above all else. He counts it
chief of ber four principal charms.
Dryden. too, is not proof against the
charms of tbe female foot ana walk:
In length of train deecenda her sleeping
gown,
And by her graceful walk tbe Queen
of Love Is known.
Tbe mention of tbe foot in poetry
bss often been used purposely to exprese
reverence, as when Ben Jobneon
declared that his love for bis mistress
wss so great that he "would adore tbe
foot, and If slipper was Isft off would
kiss it too." Every one Is familliar
with his highly poetical:
And where she went the flowen took
thickest not.
A* she bad towed them with bar odorous
foot.
Or a similar reference by Butler:
Where'er you tread, your foot shall set
The primrose and the violet.
That fascinating combination of
loveliness, arrent coquetry and rigid
virtue, Mme. Recamier, worshipped
her own beauty. It is on record that
she preferred dinners to any other
form of entertainment, not for the
sake of the pleasures of the table, but
becaate her feet, which Were not
pretty, were hidden and her exquisite
hands and arms were well displayed.
She was a coquette to ths last, ksep- ^
ing up her Diatonic deflations till the day
of ber death, and she lived to be a
very old woman.
A woman's foot, when perfect, is
hollowed out well, both Inside and obt
with a high instep, short heel and
long, straight toes, slightly spatulated
at the endl.
This is the type of the most beautiful
foot. It is, on the whole, a foot
uot frequently seen in its perfection,
for often one or the other element of
beauty is wanting. The rearaet point
of beauty is the hollowing of the out
Hide of the foot.
It uted to be that shoemaker's,
lasts were made upon tbe Greek principle*,
but now a bump is made on
tbe outside of tha last just above the
point where tbe slight hollow should
be.
If anyone would convince himself
that tbe hollow on the outside of tb?
foot is rare, let him watch the print
that seaside bathers leave when tbey
step on a dry plank walk. Most of
such footprints show a greater or
smaller hollow on tbe inside of tbe
foot, but nearly everyone shows
straight, wet mark on the outside.
Tbaf water could flow under the
srcb of the foot without wetting it is
sn old rule where feet are concerned.
Tbat tbe foot has su arch, under
which an apple could be rolled, is said
of one well-ltuown beauty of tbe present
day.
8he is so proud of her lovely feet
tbat she ban them photographed in
every possible way?iu twentieth century
slippers, iu sabots, skate", Louis
Quluze slippers, Japanese and Russian
shoes. 8he has also any number of
plaster ca* t* show lug every graceful
curve and dimple.
Tk? WafM?rsis.
I have just read tbe story of a wild
beast tamer who for twenty'five year*
bad baudled a boa-oonstrictor. He
had watched it grow to a monster
thirty five feet long, but be gave daily
Grformances with it, and supposed .
wait its master. One day, however,
&h they bad reached tbe climax of
Lbeir exhibition, and man and serpent
were wound together and seemingly
Mended in one, a faint scream waa
heard and the sound of breaking bones.
The seipeut slave was master at last,
ind tbe trainer was lifeless in the
midst of its coils.
That is a picture of the fate of
the drunkard, the sensualists, tbe man
mtbo looses tbe mastery over himself,
rhe lower pa*sions will grow stronger,
the victim will seem to be master, still
there will come a day when the "old
>erpeut" will tighten his coils, Death.
Crowd the life with healthful, noble
uterest*. and there will be no room
for what i* bise. Crowd the good iu
)r<Jer to overcome the evil. Tim is
:he Hurest, eattient way of victory.
There have been men in abundance
like Alexander tbe Great, who could
lake a city, but could not take the citiiel
of the lr on n souls; and the enemy
:here ensconced conquored them at
last.
Count no duty too little, no round of
ife too small, no work to low, if it
Mine iu thy way. Mince God thinks so
uuch of it an to aend His angels to
juard thee in it.
How thankful we ought to be that
Jod lookn down upon our crooked
(valkiugand a-k? um, with Heavenly
Katherly love, to be more careful in
the future how we walk. Sometimes
when we Hiumoie aim lau ne puus
Hin loving arm around um ami holds flfl
uh up. (Jod been us every hour ami SB
lie spirit is ever ready to draw u* from H
lie pitfall* which Hurround us.
