A feature of the high bust Is that q

a straight front and fits to the perfec-

hey could not exist or look trim

some to pay $50-a thing that my

FOR HEALTH AND GOOD LOOKS.
Correct Position In Standing and Sit
ting 10 important.

Good carriage not only means good
looks but good health. The Importance
Of standing, sitting and walking cor
rectly cannot be overestimated and Ia
entirely one Of personal responsibility.
Children should be trained into
proper postures, but II early training
has been neglected, then 1t behooves
the slouchy and stoop-shouldered to
get busy.
It is not as hard as one would think
to have a graceful carriage, though to
read many of the requirements Of the
beauty doctors fully equipped gym
nasiurl and unlimited time would seem
requisites. A few simple rules faith.
fully followed will quickly improve the
most awkward bearing.
To stand well remember to keep the
chest high, knees straight. abdomen in
and hips back and the feet inclined at
an angle of about 80 degrees. With
chest. knees and hips In their prop
er places the feet will generally look
after themselves.
To walk well and easily maintain
the same position Of chest. abdomen
and knees and let the swing come
from the hips. In climbing a hill or
stairs keep the trunk straight and
chest up. raise yourself from the fiat
Of the foot and do not bend forward
in mounting.
To. sit gracefully and comfortably,
even without supporting the back, Sc
lect chair that fits; one that will en-
able you to sit with the lower part Of
the spine against the back Of the
chair and the feet on the floor. In
this position the chest cannot drop,
nor does the back tire readily.
