Good Form In POSING.

Have you ever sat In q restaurant
and looked around at the various Ia
bles occupied by pretty women and
then dropped your eyes to the floor
and scrutinized the position Of their
feet? What shock awaits you, for
the average woman assumes the most
grOtesQue Of positions when she sits
herself down In a chair-or, rather.
her feet take on the weirdest attitudes
that any one could imagine. For in
stance, she may be sitting correctly
from the waist upward-the acme of
grace as far as the upper part Of her
body Is cOncerned-but her feet are
twisted and curled around the legs of
the chair in way that suggests q
contortionist or If this is not the case
perhaps she has placed her pedal ex-
tremities on the floor with the toes
turned In until one suspects her Of be-
ing pigeon tOed.
Why is 1t that SO few women can
make their feet behave? And why
do the many who walk with the great
est amount Of grace lose all their
charm the minute they sink into
chairY The correct sitting position Is
not difficult. and any woman eau learn
to assume 1t with little care and prac.
tice.
When sitting down. whether at
restaurant table. In an easy chair or
in a public place. do not forget that
the feet should be placed squarely on
the floor, the heels touching or very
nearly touching. the knees not too far
apart This position ia just as COM
Portable as any Of the grotesque atti-
tudes assumed when crossing the
knees. curling the feet around the
rungs Of the chair or any Of the hum
dred and one other ungraceful modes
Of sitting INDUCED In by SO very many
women.
How often have you seen a pretty
girl destroy all her grace and charm
by slouching down into chair! She
was quite unconscious Of the impress
sion she was creating. and only care
lessness was responsible for this awk-
ward pose. And yet many girls are
just as careless and just as awkward
and willfully destroy all their reputa-
ton for grace.

A Little Girls Comp sition.

There was once little girl who
wished to write a composition. At
least she didn't wish to. but she cOnld
not help it. because her teacher said
composition was to be written The
little girl got out all her pencils and
sharpened them carefully and ruled
neat marquis down the side Of her pa
per and then gave great deep sigh
and looked ont Ut the window.
II don't know what tn write about"
she said just as you aud every other
child has said hundred times. And
her mother said. Write about what
you see"
II see the willow tree" said the lit
tie girl. but I can't write much about
that. Well. perhaps can start with Il"
So she looked hard at the willow
tree and wrote a line about how she
loved 1t BECAUSE she had always climb
ed Ia II ever since the beginning OF
time And she wrote another line or
two about how bright the leaves look
ed where the sun touched them and
how gray they looked In the shadow.
and then she told how the wind made
them sway like long fringe And she
told about how dark the trunk was
back Of the leaves. and how 1t bumped
out curi0usly in places where straight
willow stalks shot up. and about the
grasses that grew around the foot
And she was just finishing a descIfp-
tion Of how It looked In the rain
when her mother. who had gone out.
came back and asked how the compo.
sition was getting on.
why. 1t is all DONE" said the little
girls "And ! don't think I'll ever be-
afraid Of compositions any more. Next
time I'll write about the apple tree"
