LADY CONSTANCE STEWART RICHARDSON. Copyright, 1913, International News Service. EVERYONE agrees that for the art of sculpture we cannot exceed the ancients. To me it seems that the Greeks had beautiful sculptured figures because Ihey had wonderful models, and had Ivonderful models because they had deep veneration for the almost diMne beauty of the human form. And o out of this circle of perfection they thiseled glorious figures that we of today may use as art models for the beautlfication of our own bodies. Today I am showing you three figures, and I shall dwell at length on hem and what we may hope to acquire from a practice of the poses they tortray. Let us make a slight study f the expression of mood in plastic xpression of countenance and body, or unless the face and body are kttuned in the expression of a mood, here will be nugraceful uncertainty ie a result. THE FIRST FIGURE. , The first figure on top might stand for a number of ideas injured innolence is the most dramatic idea that It suggests. To me it simply is a larmoniously simple pose, in which kody and face express quiet dignity, fry it yourself for it looks very easy k take a pose like this. But to stand fcolsed firmly and gracefully on one loot, with the whole body balanced, eady to epring into motion and life, knd still at rest, is quite a feat. The Ibility to stand gracefully is rare for people generally balance on their heels kr toes, or sag awkwardly on one hip. Let me suggest an exercise for the icquisttion of ability to stand gracejolly. Balance the weight on the ball H the right foot, let the right arm kang easily at the side. Sway the Kdy slightly to the left and raise the left arm to the chest, at the same time Rising on the toes of the left foot intll the weight is all balanced on the tight foot. Then sway the weight Gradually to the left foot, rising on be right toe and lifting the right arm k the chest. Simply sway from foot io foot in exactly the posture that lgure one shows you. Figure two is gayety shown in rt step of an old dance of triumph, gives the most marvelous control If thigh, knee, ankle and instep, and rill serve to bring down an accumulakon of weight about the hips and fclghs. Furthermore it insures a Iraceful control of arms and shoulders. IS VERY SIMPLE. The practice of this seemingly comE- ated exercise is simple when once carefully aoalyze the picture I e posed for you. Beginning witn be left foot, rise slowly to the toes. It the same time raisins the other leg

THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME BY MABEL HEREERT URNER. FDR several days Helen had cherished a wonderful secret. It seemed too precious, too intimate, too wholly her own to share even with Warren. For a while at least she wanted it all herself. It was as though she was living in a dream a dream so beautiful that she almost feared the putting of it into words might mean a rude awakening. Her eyes shene with a new light, a

I rapt wistfuln?s3 that even Anna saw and wondered at. One evening War- ! ren came home and found her gazing 'out of the window. When she turned to greet him he was almost startled j her face seemed transfigured. i I "Why, you look like you've seen a vision ! " j "I have." she kissed him gently, j He glanced out of the window. "I s"e a taxicab, an old woman with a 'bundle, and a newsboy anything par

ticularly inspirational about that?-' She smiled. "Oh, I see much more than that!" But ho supposed it was only some whimsical fancy; she was always im-

j aginative and fanciful, and lie gave it 1 no further thought. j A few nights later, in the d.uk, I with her face pressed close to his j arm, she told him I HER GREATEST HAPPINESS.

And then in the days that followed came to her the greatest happiness she had ever known. His selfishness and irritability semed to have fallen from him, and in their place came a wonderful gentleness and tenderness and consideration. She felt a3 never before that she was standing within his sheltering, reverential love. Instead of ccing out a'nuv.t every evening, as he had done lately, he now stayed with her, reading a'oud while she sewed or lay on a courch near by. He was very careful of her health and strength, in that tender protecting way that women yearn for all their lives, and which, at most, they receive for only a short time and many of them never at all. He was anxious that she be not too closely confined, and arranged for frequent little outings and diversions. Often he came home early from . the office to take her out for a. walk o: ride, usually through the park. Helen's love for all living things had grown very tender of late. And she liked to feed the squirrels that came up to her in the park, and even to visit the zoo and pet the young deer, and watch the soft white baby rabbits. One afternoon just at dusk when they were sitting on the park bench, Helen was startled by a sudden light touch on her arm and there" on the back of the bench, looking at her with its bright eager eyes, was a squirrel begging for the peanuts she always brought. "Oh, you dear little thing! Look, Warren, how tame it isn't at all afraid." He smiled. "It knows it need not with you." She gave it at peanut, which it ate, still sitting beside her on the bench. "Oh, do you think it would let me hold it? It looks so soft and warm. I'd love to hold it just for a moment. "I'm afraid not. They're not used to being handled." "Oh, but I want to maybe if I'm very gentle" The squirrel was still beside her nibbling its nut, its tail arched plumelike over its back, its little nose

Then combine the arm and leg motion, and see what a gain in balance results. Lift the arms with drooping wrists, and as the hands reach the shoulders, and the elbows are at the waist line, turn the fingers up, at the same time turning out the hand above the upraised knee, and elevating the uppointing fingers of the other hand above the head. Poise, balance, and the reduction of superfluous hip-flesh is this not a vast deal to gain from one dancing I exercise? : THE LAST FIGURE. j The last figure illustrates a little ' faun-like movement, that is splendid :

Always practice these exercises in regular alternation from right to left or left to right and back again, to insure even bodily development.

DON'T EE HASTY IN JUDGMENT. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am nineteen, and have been keeping company steadily with a young man two years my senior, for the past year and a half. We are to be married next month. Last week while visiting a theater with my mother. I met this young man with my girl friend. Do you think I would live a happy life marrying this man who proved so untrue? ANXIOtfS. Have you given him a chance to explain? You owe him that much. But if, after hearing his explanation, you stiH doubt him. you must give him up. There is no happy rnarringe without faith.

THE GIRL IS FICKLE. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am nineteen, and deeply in love with a girl the same age. I have told her this and she has told me she loves me very dearly. She keeps company with another young, man. but she tells me she does not love him half as much as she loves me, but that she cannot stop keeping company with him, as she has kept company with him for over a year. She has even accepted an engagement ring from him. P. D. The girl is acting very dishonorably. She shows no respect for you or your ria:, Villi, what is mere, shows none frr hsrself. Give her up for some girl who will be true to you. She wiii net be hard to find. '
