SCHOOL BAG CARRYING.

Every mother should insist that her
child be not forced TO carry heavy bas
to school.
II il is necessary to carry the bags they
should not be carried on the shoulder
so that It is possible for one side of tne
body 10 get shorter than the other side
When THIS is allowed to happen the spine
becomes affected and many are the sick
nesses that grow from this seeming little
mistake.
The bag should be carried in the hand
end otter shifted from one hand TO the
other. often enough tC prevent any ten
dency TO stunning either side of the body
This can be explained 10 any sensible
child. and If he does not heed the sus
sestion the very fact tfat the bag has
no shoulder harness will mitigate the
trouble.
However, most teachers. these enlight-
q cd days have the school bag question
I'm mind and the bags are not so heavily
laden.
The carrying Of heavy satchels or bags
every day is certainly as great mis-
take and should not he allowed 10 con-
tnUc for any length of time.

| salaries were raised. and so were army
pensions, and II seemed at the time as
though the restriction as to the financial
status OF army women could be abolished.
Such restrictions may appear rather
sordid in this country, where army circles
are very exclusive and where the proper
ton of army men 10 the general pop
ulation is insignificant In Continental
Europe, however army officers constitute
an important fraction OF the population,
and one could easily mention scores OF
frontier towns where soldiers outnumber
civilians. In such communities officers
families are more or less forced into con-
slant Intercourse one with the other and
the presence Of an undesirable young
woman may create "A good deal of en-
barrasSment
On the other hand the idle life led by
the younger set Of officers and the total
lack OF diversions characteristic of small
garrison towns and fortified places drive
them into wild adventures
And thus it has happened more and
more frequently that young officers have
out OF sheer boredom contracted unions
which made them social outcasts and
opiSed the government to shift them
from regiment TO regiment until they
either found their social level or resigned
from the army.
THOSE who criticise a return to the
dGNry system claim that IL encourage on
Inc part Of tho young officer without
brilliant prospects. life of immortality

cially impossible unions will he merely
replaced by illesitmate unions which are
supposed 10 be of no concern To the rest
of the official CORPS
Legislators may oppose the dowry bill
Wneh is presented to them next fall,
but the higher army circles are heartily in
faVor or the measure. In every European
nation the SOCIAL and financial status OF
officers brides is carefully investigated
German officers of the Guard who re-
ceive the lowest salaries and are recruited
from noble families. are not permitted to
select their wives outside of the ranks OF
the nobility

French Army Dowries Interesting Arrange
ments to Enable Soldiers to Marry

The French Minister Of War Is plan
ming TO revive custom abolished in 900
and according to which no woman could
become the wife Of an army officer unless
she had guaranteed income OF l,2G
francs a year. After giving the marriage
sans dot" q tweve-year trial military
authorities have pronounced It an utter
failure.
II was Napoleon | who decreed in 1906
that army officers should apply for a
formal permission before contracting
marriage. Unless their choice OF n wife
were approved OF by the Minister Of War
they forfeited all claims to a pension.
Nothing was said. however. about
dowries. That important question was
settled by King Louis Philippe. and his
ordinance of lsi3 regulated the status of
officers wives until 1900.
Before becoming an officers wife a
woman had TO prove the ownership Of
land, buildings or shares of stock yield
ing at least 200 francs a year. That
meant at the time a capital OF about
$4,000 and IN 1900 of about $4,000.
Many ways were devised by officers
deeply in love with a penniless bride to
dodge the stipulstions of the decree.
Wealthy men settled certain amount of
money on their future bride and money
lenders placed at the disposition OF the
young woman for a certain length Of
time the required amount In guaranteed
government bonds This fraud could be
easily perpetrated, for large number

consequences.
