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 the Ladies'
Home Journal. Therefore, sit as
far back as possible in the chair, so
that the lower end Of the spine shall
be braccd against the back OF the
seat. III this back is straight the
shoulders will also rest against ii I;
If not, they will have no point Of
support, and it will be. found that
they do not need it.SkThis position
makes no strain upon the ligaments
of the spine. 1t allows a proper
position of the shoulders, cOnse-
quently OF the chest. consequently
OF the lungs, stomach, and every
other organ.
Their work is carried on natural
" and comfortably, as is also the
circulation of the blood, which, in
a sitting position, is seriously in
terfered with. With the feet rest
ing squarely upon the floor, the
hands resting easily upon the lap,
perfect equilibrium, and consequent
ly perfect rest of the body is Sc
cured. There is no strain upon
any part OF the body no muscle or
organ is r, CURED to do more than
it's 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 alieady referred to, but,
in addition, places the weight of the
arms upon the stomach and the
diaphragm, thereby increasing the
labor of digestion and respiration.
Placing the hands behind the back,
or folding the arms behind the back,
IL possible, is a good attitude to
take occasionally, giving, as it does,
the fullest expansion 10 the whole
upper part Of ;he body.

There has been a wild goose on
the Hankinson place, in south War
rem, for the last twenty-five years,
which has become thoroughly do
meslicated. Wounded and Grip
pied, then chosen leader of the
flock, he showed full measure Of
appreciation and gratitude by ready
adoption in his remuneration of Q
previous wild life. His subsequent
career has shown him to possess q
remarkable degree Of intelligence.
No strange person, animal or fowl,
can come in the vicinity, but that
he is the first to observe and give
the notice OF alarm. Combining
rare discretion with a fearless bra
very, this goose will attack and re-
pulse hawks, dogs, hogs and wild
enemies of his kind which intrude
on Lis domain, exercising a protect
ing power that has repaid an hun.
dred fold the care and kindness oi
bis friends.
AT the estimated age OF so years,
he IS strong, quick and alert, as il
yet in the prime of youth.
This sold goose" has made q
splendid record, and his friends
and kind admirers would probably
consider it a doubtful compliment
to be compared to or hear some oI
the foolish followers Of political i'm
possible fallacies dubbed as mem
bers Of his ancient and honorable
kind. -Vicksburg Post.

Miss Power, in her "Review, I"
gives a ghastly picture OF the lite Of
northwestern farmers wife. Says
she:
''To begin with, there is always
a houseiul Of children 10 be fed and
clothed and cared tor, and this lit
tie diversion is the mothers fancy
work Each morning, at the stroke
OF four, summer and winter alike,
she is up, dressed, and has her
kitchen fire burning; and bear in
mind that, no matter how many
hired men may help the husband
in the field, not one wife in twenty
Eve has a hired girl to help her in
the house. The woman, generally
slighier and Trailer than even our
women, must cook for all the hired
men. These men must have their
breakfast and be in the fields by
day break, after which the whole
house is to be put in order-and
they have no slipshod service. The
COWS are then to be MIXED, but
when there are more than ten, the
wife sometimes has help. Each
day the churning is done, after
which the wife attempts to teach
the children their lessons, in the
hour or two that intervenes before
the great pals of dinner are pre-
pared and sent TO the fields. AS
soon as the dishes are washed prep
arations are begun again for the
evening milking time, and the third
hot meal Of the day, after which, If
the wife has an idle hour or two,
she slings the hoe across her should
ers and wends her way to the field,
where side by side with her hus-
band and the men, she digs susten-
ance from the earth. 1t is always
close to midnight when she closes
her house and retires. The wife
never sees the color of the hard
earned money. 1t is the husbands
and he saves or spends it at his
will. To add to all this, remember
that they have but twelve weeks
warm weather, and the snow is Of
ten higher than the woman's knees,
as she ploughs about trying 10 do
her work."

Mrs. Waite, the sorrowinR relict
OF the late Bloody Brides, is no
longer in favor Of woman suffrage.
and in gust of truly feminine fury
she thus let's drive:
"They have shown that they are
no more at for the ballot than chill
dren under sixteen years Of age.
Why, they have come down round
our home and acted like a lot OF
hoodlums blowing horns and show
ing that they know no more of the
political questions than foreigners
ignorant of the English language.
Then ] know Of lots Of them who
sold their votes as the men did, and
were not ashamed of IL, either.
There were numbers Of them who
sold out for a package Of chewing
gum and q carriage ride. Oh, how
ashamed ! would be OF a thing like
that"
This is truly a distressing pic.

nabls fact should be exposed. We
should advise leniency in dealing
with the fair culprits for woman

but for the dastardly villains who
thus tempted them lhero should be
no mercy. The charge that Mrs.
Waite makes against the fair elect
ors opens up an awful vision Of dis
NAL possibilities. 1t harrows NJ,

fore we proceed further with this

The meanness Of the A. P. A. was
never seen at worse advantage than
in It's attempt to get rid of the post
mistress at Auburndale, Mass, be-
cause she happens to be a Catholic.
She happens also 10 be a writer Of
some distinction, Miss Louise Imo-
gen Quincy, but the sight OF a Cath
olic drawing $500 a year from the
government was too much for the
pious ProtesLanls Of the town, who
live in daily and nightly dread Of a
Catholic war, and so they openly
and boastfully set about boycotling
the Office. As the salary depends
partly upon the sales OF stamps, il
was easy for them 10 buy stamps
elsewhere 10 put on their devouI
letters to missionaries and TO Chris
lian Endeavorers, and they have
succeeded by this means in cutting
down Miss Guiney's income by
some 1925. This is a tremendous
victory over Satan and the Pope,
and makes the country safe by just
so much.
But we should hope that the
neighbors of these creatures in Au-
burndale would find some way ol
setting their heels upon them. No
one need be afraid OF them any
longer politically; and intellectual
ly and morally they have all along
been contsmphble.-N. 7. Post.

Young women in search of phys
ical culture, are respectfully re-
ferred to the following rule, laid
down by Mrs. Bridget Mcguire, OF
New York
"Take the scope in the hands,
which should be held at half reach
reversed grasp, allowing the bushy
portion OF the scope TO rest upon
the floor, and holding firmly to the
upper end of the handle. Bend the
body slightly forward, give the arms
a horizontal movement, lift the
scope slightly, and move one foot
before the other. Repeat these
movements until the scope has been
brought in contact with every por-
ton of the floor"

says:
