If one attitude more than another helps
to preserve a woman's figure it is sit
ting erect on the tip of the spine. How
many women who are reading this are
sitting so far back In their chairs that
the lower part Of the spinal columns is
straight, and not curved? Few, ] am
sure. for one of the most common habits
is to slide a little into ones seat. and
this means that weight which should be
poised is pushed down on the spine at
such point that no support can be
given.
One reason that prominent and alb
normally developed abdomens are common
among women of middle age Is that as
they get older they are less careful about
holding themselves erect when sitting,
and so. when the spine is allowed to
curve the abdomen protrudes. muscles
and cords which should hold 1t in place
become limp through disuse. and all
traces of youth in the figure disappear in
the huddled shape OF age.
Further. more injury Is done to the fig
ure by sitting badly than by standing
in wrong attitude. l suggest as an
improvement that every woman learn to
sit as far back in her chair as she can
push. for only in this way will she get
straight line for her spine. If her
feet do not touch the floor she must
either let them stick out or take a lower
chair. The point to be particular about,
however, is the angle of the backbone.

Spring Styles Becoming
to the Elderly Woman

Surely never before has fashion been
so kind to the elderly and mddle-aged
women, for the new designs in frocks and
suits for Easter seem modelled purposely
for those past their first youth.
And really after closely observing these
newest styles there seems little difference
between the garments worn by mothers
and those adopted by grown-up daughters.
Of course, the woman of generous pro-
portions will not wish to ape an over
Juvenile effect in wide belts or frivolous
girdles that are the exclusive possessions
of the young. In all other essentials tho
cut and the lines of elderly women's gar
ments exactly follow those designed for
the younger and generally more slender
type.
The majority of middle-aged women are
now engaged in planning pretty house
frocks for Easter day. just as the younger
generation are thinking of the smart tai

MEANS OF PRESERVING
A YOUTHFUL FIGURE
Sitting on the TIP of the Spinal Column and
Throwing Shoulders Far Back Help.

bone 1T is important to throw back the
shoulders. When assuming the latter at
t1tude almost involuntarily the chin will
go up. as the head takes a proper poise,
and the result Is a good position. Weight
Is balanced on the spine as it should be,
and there is no danger of awkWardness.
! Rocking chairs are bane to good fig
ures. for 1t is impossible to sit in one
ana not dotrble up even a little. Once
IN q while, aS a great luxury, this does
not matter, but the practice of using one,
getting into it and sliding down to rock,
Is rulnatiOn to a we'll shaped body.
Another position in which the figure is
thrown out of plumb is by standing in
such way as to lean back from the
hips If for any reason perfect poise
is not obtained, it is better to lean
forward than to tilt back, for the latter
is less awkward in results. But if a
woman will acquire the habit Of hold
ing herself properly she has accomplished
results and can keep herself looking we'll
for years.
Hold Abdomen in Place.
Throwing back the shoulders does not
mean allowing the abdomen to protrude.
Indeed, all the muscles Of the lower torso
should be trained to hold the weight that
is put upon them, and they will then
draw and keep in place that portion of
the trunk. When the shoulders are thrown
back 1t is literally only the shoulders
the rest of the body is kept on a straight
line. with a slight lean toward the front.
But most vitality important of all is to
