A Light Step. ' Anyhody can have a light step who will be at the pains to set the foot down right. In that lies all the difference be twixt a thumping, lumping gait and tha light tread that makes people call you "velvet footed. The whole art and mystery lies in a single sentence: Put the ball of the feet down first, throwing the weight upon it and letting the heel come to the floor the hundredth part of a second after. ; Treading flat footed over all the sole at once the weight comes with a jar that is about equally destructive to quiet, to grace and to shoe leather. By stepping first on the ball, just back of the toes, its cushiony muscles act as a spring and make of walking a double pleasure. Harper's Y"bung People. - A Clerical Bora Bayer.
