Erect Carriage.

An Greet gait gives to woman a
queenly appearance, and to men an air
of manliness, integrity and fearlessness.
To bend forward or downward while
walking indicates debility. depression or
mental tronble, and always aggravates
itself and promotes disease. Pads and
supports are all pernicious, and are worse
than useless, because they teach the sys
tenn to rely on them, and cannot support
one part of the body without causing 40
unnatural strain on some other part, and,
10 that extent, tend TO disease that part.
There is always one easily available and
successful method of acquiring an erect,
manly gait, without any material effect,
or feeling of awkwardness. Let the chin
be little above horizontal line, which
is easily done by keeping the eye fixed
on the top of some PERSONS bat or bon
net in front Of you. The habit of this
erect carriage may be facilitated by &C
costoming yourself, when at home, in the
garden, or other places, TO walk with the
hands behind, held 10 one another and
the head thrown up, rs is done in smok
ing cigar or singing tune.-HalFs

Vanderbilt and hIs Friends.

Horace Clark, Vanderbilt's son in law,
was always favorite with the stately old
gentleman. The current gossip about
his marriage is not lacking in amusement.
Clark was high spirited, even when
poor. Having decided to wed the young
lady, he cal led upon bis future father in
law, and without preliminary, began:
Commodore, | wish your daughter
in marriage"
"Hey!' quoth the money king.
Clark repeated his words.
"You mean you want my money"
growled Vanderbilt, from his chair.
"You and your daughter be ID"
famed out the young lawyer, as he
cenched bis hat in hand. and turned to
leave the room.
"EoId on, young man," said Wander
bilt, Strengthening himself Oh his feet,
and looking wonderfully suave and pa
ternal.-"hod on. l rather like you. -
| didn't say you shouldn't have my
daughter. You may have her. rath-
er like you, young mau."
Clark never did get much of the Com
modore's money, except in indirect ways.
He had shares in speculations and WAS
always we'll supplied with points. Once
Vanderbilt determined 10 ''use" him.
Clark lost hundreds of thousands of dol
lars. He boldly told bis father what be
thought of it, and after time the losses
wers made good. This habit OF utl-
iziug everybody has been exercised, if
we may trust rumor, on nearly every
member of the family. William Van
derbiIt is credited with having been fa-
yored this way. One day bis father
came TO him and suggested that be had
better sell Hudson; lilo was too high.
Thank you," said the son.
Nevertheless, William concluded to
look about him first. The stock kept
stesdy, with ups and downs of frac tons
Of one per cent. BY peculiar ways it was
discovered, that the elder Vanderbilt was
buying quietly.
William determined to follow suit. Up
jumped the stock TO 1877. He was
clear 26 per cent. in peck ct.
When the oreratioa was ended, Tie
Commodore rode round to the sons Of
fee. cas-
'Welb William, how much did you
lose g.
Il went in at 10 on 10000 shares.
That ought 10 make me 100000"
"Very bad luck, William" quoth the
father trying TO look extremely troubled +,
''verv bad luck this time"
but then bought, and so made"
"Hey! What sent you doing that,
sirY'
20, heard that was your line. and
so concluded that you meant long instead
Of short"
"Ahem" croaked Vanderbilt, pere, rs
he buttoned up his fur oyercoat, and
stalked out OF the door, He has always
had high opinion of William since that
event.
