A PLLA FOR CoRsErs.-In a lecture
recently delivered in New York, Mrs.
Walter G. Lyman, while advocating
most OF the views recently advanced by
women physicians on physiology and
hygiene, made some wise notifications.
Rules that will apply TO aborigines need
exceptions before being adopted by a
civilized people. Perverted modes of
living require, to speak, perverted styles
Of dress. While health is largely de-
pendent upon right diet, it is still
more dependent upon right breathing.
a woman's animal spirits and her en-
durance are proportioned 10 her thor
ough inhalations and exhslations. If
she be properly dressed, the ascent Of
stairs, as well of hills, may be made
conductive to health. God, in creating
particular portions Of the body to per
form special functions, did not intend
one organ TO perform the work Of two.
Fashion, however, demands that women
crowd the organs of the tborax upon
those of the abdomen, compress instead
of expand the foaaing ribs, partly dis
place the stomach by the liver, and con-
tract the space required by the lungs.
But the lungs are TO pnrify the blood.
If they do not have room to perform
their function, if the breathing. because
of the wrong dressing, be light, the
blood becomes imperfectly purified.
Because so many, American women are
sedeptary in their habits the head is
much ofthe time bent forward, the
spine unduIy curved above the shoglder
blades, the, organs Of the chest are bent
downwards Many school girls acquire
curvature Of the spine Now if wo-
men cannot be cured Of excess Of mac
tivity the best thing TO do is to put
them in a stfaigbtjacket. Corsets are
aresult of moderu modes of living.
Women. however, who 81 much, or
very feshy women. might better wear
them than suffer from diseases THAI may
result becanse they lack means Of sup
port. A woman who wears corset
cannot SIT bent far over The steels
and bones Of a corzet distribute the
weight which would otherwise cut into
the body from skirts and other bands,
and thus csuse = torpid state Of abdo-
minal muscleA, Coruets can be made
and so worn that . full and deep. respi-
ration can be taken. It would Be safe

WE ARE EQUAL THERE.

Nv neighbor's home is mansion fine !;
Mines but q plain affair;
His roofs rain-proof; but SO is mine,
And SO we are equal there.
Nv neighbor's table groans meath its
weight,
Mine sees no viands rare;
Yet neither more than his hunger can
And so we are equal there.
NV neighbor's suit is richer, indeed,
Than the home-spun that | wear;
But mine is as warm, he must conceed !;
And so we are equal there.
Of down is made my neighbor's nest ;
But mine of straw is a lair
Yet quite as sweet is my nightly rest ;
And so we are equal there.
He's worried to keep his ample store ;
To get just enough's my care
What difference. then, shall l deplore
For are we not equal there q!
He can no more of the light behold
Than | /; nor breathe Of the air;
The odds nor he, hor |, doth hold,
For we are equal there.
My neighbor dies; and cortege great
Solemnly takes him where
All lie alike in quiet state,
For all are equal there.
And when they move with rafting
haste
To plant me without care,
I'm sure he shall not be displaced
We're equal even there.
