the Blue Ridge to the other more loyal peo-

The Proper Way to SIT.

A proper sitting position requires
that the spine shall be kept straight
and that the support needed for the
upper part of the body shall be felt
In the right place, says Caroline LIE
Row, in the Ladies' Home Journal.
Therefore, sit as far back as possible
in the chair, so that the lower end Of
the spine shall be braced against the
back of the seat. If this back is
straight the shoulders will also rest
against it; if not, they will have no
point of support and it will be found
they do not need it. This position
makes no strain upon the ligaments
of the spine. 1t allows proper po-
sition of the shoulders, consequently
OF the chest, consequently Of the
lungs, stomach and every other organ
Of the body. Their work is carried
on naturally and comfortably, as is
also the circulation OF the blood,
which, in wrong sitting position, is
seriously interfered with. With the
feet resting squarely upon the floor,
the hands resting easily upon the
lap, perfect equilibrium and conse-
quently perfect rest Of the body is
secured. There is no strain upon
any part of the body no muscle or
organ is required to do more than its
legitimate amount of work. The
arms should never be folded, for this
position not only causes a strain
upon the spine, and all the other
evils already referred to, but, in adj

upon the stomach and the diaphragm,
thereby increasing the labor of diges-
tion and respiration. Placing the
hands behind the back, or folding the
arms behind the back, II possible, Is
a good attitude to take occasionally,
giving, as it does, the fullest expan-
sion TO the whole upper part OF the

Wear Next the Skin.
The world, or this part OF IL at
least, is full OF housekeepers who
think that there Is no material for
sheets and pillow cases comparable to
linen. They don't always have 1t, to
be sure, because it is expensive, but
they always covet 1t and finger the
shining breadths lovingly and wonder
If the time will ever come when all
these things shall be added unto
them. But the truth about linen Is
that 1t isn't the ideal dressing for
beds at all. 1t Is cold and slippery
and insures sensitive persons the
dream of.sleepingon an iceberg, which
does we'll enough for an occasional
experience, like seasickness, but
which pals on too frequent repetition.
Besides that, the Plttsburg Dispatch
declares it wrinkles and tumbles in
spite of its heavier body, much more
than cotton does, giving bed, after
one nights use, most .slovenly and
uninyiting appearance.
Nobody recommends linen for body
wear. Its firm texture and hard sur
face make it wholly non-absorbent;
it allows the body to become chilled
by refusing the perspiration and, so
has been known to bring on serious
illness. For outside wear in summer,
linen may be tolerated as clothing,
but nowhere else.
Where, however, it is at its most use
full and best is in household uses.
For table service, for the toilet, and
for minor ornamental details 1t is
simply invaluable-its smoothness Of
texture, its brilliancy, which launder-
ing ever increases, its exquisite fresh
ness, make it the one fabric fit to
drape the dining-table and to use in the
toilet, while its suitability for needle
work decoration makes 1t admirable
for all kinds of fancy work. And
here it is rightfully used, but to wear
next the skin and sleep in-no.

Care of Umbrellas.

After coming in out of the rain let
the umbrella down and stand it on
the handle that it may dry in this
positions; the water will thus drip
from the edges of the frame and the
cover dry uniformly.
When placed with the handle up
ward, as is frequently done, the water
runs to the top of the umbrella and
the moisture is there retained in the
lining underneath the ring for some
length of time, causing the silk or
fabric with which the frame is COW
cred to become tender and soon rot.
Ordinarily the top Of an umbrella
wears out sooner than the other part
of it, and In the majority OF cases
may be thus accounted for.
A silk umbrella Is much injured by
being left open to dry; the silk be-
comes stretched and stiff, and will
sooner split thus cared for.
When not in use let the folds lie
loose, not fastened down; the creases
are less apt to split from this usage.
Dispense with an umbrella case, ex-
cept in travelling, as protection
from dust and cinders.

BIxggyn.s Acoelerator.

Il cordially commend to all
fathers" said Mr.. Staybolt, "Blyg-
gyms clock accelerator. This useful
invention has only lately been placed
on the market, but it is sure to find a
ready sale as soon as its merits be-
come known.
"The young man who goes counting
is apt to stay too late. Many and
many father has tried to remind
him by winding the clock in the next
room that it was time to go, but, as
a matter of fact, winding the clock
has never amounted to much. 1t is
so palpably hint that it is generally
disregarded.
"Blyggyn substitutes for this and
all the other old methods one in
keeping with the progress and refine
ment Of the age. The accelerator
can be attached to any clock, inside
the case and out Of sight and Is very
simple in operation. 1t can be adj
justed to accelerate the motion Of the
clock TO any desired rate OF speed.
Suppose the acceleration to be set at
double time and that 1t started at 8
o'clock. At $3.50 the clock strikes 10,
at 10 the clock strikes III and at 1880
it strikes II, and so on. There is an
air Of truthfulness about this that
carries conviction.
1.-The inventor of the accelerator
does not guarantee that it will be eff
fective in every instance, but it is be-
lieved that every father will buy one,
hopefully, and take the chances. "
