STooP. .SHOULDERED PEOPLE.-A stoop-
ing figure is not only familiar expression
of weakness or old age, but it is, when
caused by careless habits, direct cause of
contracted chest and defective breathing.
Unless you rid yourself Of this crook while
at school, you will probably go bent to your
grave. There is one good way to cure.
Shoulder braces will not help. One needs
not an artificial substitute, but some means
to develop the muscles whose duty is to
hold the head aud shoulders erect We
know of but one bull's-eye shot. It is to
carry a weight on the head. A sheepskin
or other stroug bag filled with twenty or
thirty pounds CT sand is a good weight
When engaged in YOUR morning studies
either before or after break fast, put the bag
of sand on your head, hold your head erect,
draw your chin close to your neck and walk
slowly about the room, coming back if you
please, every minute or two to your boob
of carrying the book as you walk. The
muscles whose duty it is to hold the hesc
and shoulders erect are hit. not with scat
tered shot but with rifle ball. The bones
| of the spine and the intergerbrai substance
will soon accommodate themselves 10 tht
new attitude. One year of daily practice
with the bag-half an hour morning ant
evening-will give you g noble carriage
without interfering a moment with you
studies.

The suit of John Cummings
against Michael Bannon, in the
Superior Court, to recover about
$4,000 for damages for alleged deceit,
resulted yesterday in favor OF Bannon,
under instructions of the court. Cum
mings in 1867 authorized Banuon to
sell bis leasehold inlerest in some land
in Anne Arundel county, of which
Mrs Michael BanDon owned the fee
simple. Cummings wanted it sold so
AZ to release him completely from
liability for the rent under the lease
His interest was sold to Major Lar
ned, and nothing was heard of the
rent by Cummings until the house on
the land was burned down, in 1879.
Cummings was then called upon to
pay the rent, Larned having assigned
nis interest. Cummings instituted a
suit 10 Anne Arundel county to re-
form the papers containing the terms
of the sale to Larned, but the court
decided against him, and Judge
Brown held that the decision 10 that
-uit covered the subject, aud protected
Bannon from the suit in the Superior
Court.
