Bnby's Sitting Posture.

Careful mothers give much attention
to the first sitting posture Of a child
in the baby carriage, where the con-
tinued motion may exert wrong in
fiuence in curving the spine. says the
Philadelphia Ledger. Miss Lindley. a
physical oulturist. observes that care
full thought should be given to the
chair that succeeds the high chair at
the table. This must have the seat of
length to correspond to the child's
thigh from the back to the bent knee.
Then the leverage Of the spine in sup
porting the body in its correct sit! i.g
posture Is brought from the extreme
lower end, instead of at the waist. as
ia the case when the chair is too deep
for the length of the chi!d's thigh,
The back of the chair should be
straight, instead of hollow.

Don't he Poverty-spoiled.

The woman who has learned to make
a good appearance upon next to moth
ing becomes an object of envy to her
less fortunate sisters. 1t Is largely a
question Of investigation. of watching
sales. Of shopping property, of making

II she Is poor nor should she feel that
because poverty has flung its sombre
cloak about her she should draw its
folds still closer and hide herself from
the pure sunshine OF the world or the
kindly friendship OF her friends. Too
many women are inclined when poor to
withdraw into shell, snail fashion,
