Vertigo Of greater OF less severity may

The most unhappy period Of marriage,
according to French divorce statistics,
Is for the period extending from the fifth
to the tenth year. After that the figures
drop rapidly. Only 2s per cent. Of the

the period over thirty and under forty

About Sitting Erect and Louneing.
The crusade which began some months
ago against the habit Of Americans ''sit-
ting On their spines" has suddenly start
ed up again The lackadaisical, round
shouldered and slanting carriage of New
Workers is noticeable in nearly all public
places. have often observed, in glano-
ing over the people in the big restau-
rants, that the diners lounged in their
chairs almost without exception The
man who sat erect In a sensible fashion
was q great rarity. All along Broad
way loungers In hotels are sprawled
over their seats In similar way, and
nothing IS more common than to see
man slide down In his seat In the thea
ter until bis knees are wedged against
the chair In front Of him and his neck
rests upon the back Of his own chair.
In railroad trains there is similar ex-
hbition Of lackadaisical, sprawAng,
lounging and half recumbent men. /
have notion that all Of this Is due to q
certain extent to ignorance.
Men who have long journeys to go
through should try the effect Of sitting
upright In the corner Of a seat one day
and sprawl all over the seat the next.
They will find that the percentage Of
fatigue Is tmmeasurably smaller when
sitting squarely in the seat than when
trying to cover 1t in q recumbent posi-
ton. So 1t Is In the street car, the cab
and the elevated trains. The principal
advantage of the erect posture is that
when q person sits in this way, without
leaning against the back Of the seat, the
jar Of the car Is 80 distributed that it
never reaches the head. There Is much
more comfort to be had in sitting erect
than In lounging. -Blakeley Hall in
Brooklyn Eagla
