DODIlY POIST
The Right Way TO Stand
and Walk

n I'D you ever sit in ar audience
hall in n of the back seats
and watch the women come
in and walk down the aisles?
If not, then do so next time you go to
such a place. You will be unpleasantly
surprised at the awkward, ungainly
gait of many of the women In fact,
the way a considerable proportion of
our women carry themselves is a dis
grace to a free country. Mrs. NJ. Lam
don Reed, the beautiful Delsartean,
herself a teacher of physical culture,
declares that when the average woman
walks her weight is thrown upon her
heels, her stomach is usually protrud-
ed, her shoulders are either held too
far backward or bent too far forward,
while she holds her arms stiffiy, one
shoulder often being showed higher
than the other by the way in which
she clutches up her skirt or carries a
parcel.
This is sad, solid truth!
What is worse, and more of it, Mrs.
Reed tells us that thoughts, disposition
and feelings are plainly shown in the
motions of the body. Think, then, what
a sloppy, uncultivated, wabbling men,
tally many girls and women must
have If they think the way they walk!
II, as the Delsartean lady insists, we
tell on ourselves with every movement
of the body, isn't it high time we were
training u walk and carriage?
There is really much more in this
than most of us know or consider. You
see the picture. 1t is one whereby
Mrs. Reed illustrates to us the correct
poise' of a woman's body. 1t is the po-
sition all persons should assume and
keep in walking and standing. If we
do, we may be assured we shall always
stand and walk gracefully.
To get this attitude stand erect and
hold your chest up. Always hold the
chest up and breathe as deeply as
possible, away around to the very tips
of your lungs under the shoulder
blades. The deep breathing habit of
itself tends to lift the chest and en-
large it, securing a noble poise. To do
real good the air you breathe must be
the purest you can find. When you
stand erect don't try to throw your
shoulders back" too far. That is the
direction usually given, but it is a
mistake. If you hold your chest per-
sistently up, your shoulders will nat
urally assume the right position with
out much trouble on your part in the
matter of turning them back.
The next point is to bear your weight
upon the front part of your feet. 1t is
a horrible walk, that of the girl or
woman who goes slump, slump along
with her weight on her heels. 1t gives
the impression of age and oxlike heavi-
ness even to a girl of sixteen. Besides,
at every step there are the terrible jar

There are many pa- peEs and books which he must read in draer Co get the fullest information, which are not translated into English. A mining engineer cannot be all that he saght to be without studying this literature. The introduction of these kraneAss in a purely technical insti- trtien like the Michigan College Of Mines is not so vital as the instruc- riea in Spanish and English, and l S,eak of the subject in passing, that tue young engineer may know some Of tie requirements which he should be eQaipped to meet.

He should be particularly well vsrsed in methods for compiling sta tistics and for properly devising and maintaining mining and metallurgical records. These qualifications are a nrime necessity and should be given
 thorough attention in mining college Matters which deal with the statistical aHd commercial side of the mining and naetallurgieal industries are fully equal in Importance to those which have to fo with the physical operations.

 MT Mills stated that he now had a force of about 100 men working which would be increased as rapidly as practicable. The aggregate of tunnel work will be about 9200 feet. which is considerably more than the l first published estimates. There will be S700 feet of tunnels oi the pow CT canal proper and the sluiee tunnel will be 800 feet.
 The plans in regard to the sluice tunnel has been changed. The origi- nal intention was to have it cut around the dam on the north side, but it has now been decided to have it run on the south side.

It was reported yesterday that the San Juan, the rich gold property in the Cynisa mountains of Sonora, is sold.
 This property belongs to Wm. Lut- ley, John Sanderson and Wm. Bennett. MT Sanderson is in Bisbee, and when seen by a Review reporter said that he had not heard of the sale, but is expecting it, as MT. Lutley was nego- tiating with parties who were after the mine. These buyers were taken out to inspect the property, and MT. Sanderson said that the deal may have gone through.
 People from Los Angeles were ex- pected in Douglas yesterday to go out and see the San Juan. and it may be these people who have made the re- ported purchase.

 WELL KNOWN
 HERE.

The many friends of J. Martin Jones senior member of the firm of J. Martin Jones & Son. of Fl Paso, will be pain ed to hear of his sudden demise in that city. MT. Jones had been coming to this and surrounding sections of Ari- zona, in the interests of his house. and the firm has established a very hand some trade among the merchants of Bisbee and vicinity. Speaking of the circumstances, tbe Fl Paso Times says:
 ''J. Martin Jones, a well known busi- ness man of this city, and senior part ner of the firm of J. Martin Jones & Son, wholesale paper dealers, died at his home at 510 Magofin avenue of rheumatism of the heart When he died is not known, but he was found in his bed early yesterday morning, cold and stiff and evidently dead some time. His remains were shipped to Kansas City, his former home, last night for burial.
 MT. Jones came to Fl Paso several years ago for the benefit of his sons health and established the business which he owned at the time of his death. In Kansas City he was promi- nent in several business enterprises.
 'In Fl Paso he has always been prominent in business affairs acd every
 thing that would promote the inter- ests of the town. He was director of the Chamber of Commerce and has always taken a leading part in the management of its affairs. He was chairman of the committee of pub lie improvements of that body.
 Tt was he who had charge of the compilation of data refuting the state
 ment that Fort Bliss was not fit lplace for large army post, which was ltonsidered very complete.
 At the time of his death MT. Jones is said to have been contemplating removing from Fl Paso, as he said on the day before his death that he had

Porter and Margrave was novel in the

courts.

money into Traction stock, but had

and who trusted him implicitly. He
