Tiptoes walking symbolised curiosity and discretion. Quick steps are said to be indicates of energy and agitation. - Wavering steps betray uncertainty, hesitation and indicision. To a certain extent one's character may be read from one's walk. Turned -in toes are often possessed by pro-000cupied, absent.minded persons. Slow steps, whether Long or short, sug- gest a gentle and reflective state of mind. Where a revengful purpose is hidden under a feigned smile the step will be slinking and noiseless. The proud step is elow and measured, the toss being oonepioionsly turned out, while the legs are straightened. Obstinate people rest the feet flatly and firmly on the ground, walk heavily and slowly, and stand with the legs firmly planted and a good way apart. John Crooksltank, of Blenheim raised a peach this year that measured ten inches in oiroumferenoe and weighed half a pound.
