G AS we may deform our spiHes by
unnatural attitudes, and by many of
the absurd practices of civilized life,
SO we may straightens them, and
cause an erect carriage, by many exer--
cises acknowledgements. TheSouthern
negroes, and other races, which carry
heavy burdens. on their heads, are
Iproyerbially erect,-the spinal mus
lcles of the back being habitually,
brought into energetic action, thus
counteracting the natural tendency
of the spine to curve forwardz Q Vari-,

al causes of deformity, from pressure
applied to the chest, are.more IN need
lof ofsupefvision in this respect.
It is not necessary to carry heavy
burdens on the head to correct the
weight, even small bag of beans or
ANYTHING which requires attention
and muscular effort to retain in posi-
ton, is enough. e.
When parents, then, see child
becoming round-shouldered, as 1T is
called, let them not encase the chest
in corsets, or support the spine by
complicated and CALLING apparatus,
but examine into the causes, and sup
ply sCno remedy Dy removing tnem /,
in nine cases out of ten, the deform-
! ity does not depend on any weakness
in the spinal column, or want of tone
in the muscular system, but on

Add to these causes the absurd
modes of dressing children, the man
