the waist. And she should be taught to
pull it down at the front. This action
of pulling the belt down toward the
front makes her stand nicely. with her
spine well curved and her hips kept
back. Children who wear French belts
nearly always grow up with nicely
poised figures.
Very few use those cruel round gar,
ters now, but tight suspenders are al
most as bad They cramp child's
legs and make her walk from the knee
instead of from the hip. The suspend.
ers should always be quite loose, and
their elastics should be new and
springy.
Knickers with tight elastics which
come below the knee are very unconl.
Portable things. The elastic should al
ways be large and loose enough to be
worn above the knee, SO that the gar.
ments do not catch the child when sh'
stoops or sits.
Hard hats with tight elastics are very
cruel things. for. they hurt child,s
head most terribly. Let the hats he

Bear Hunting Ii India,

Among the sports of India is the cap
turing Of bears. and to this end curious
means are sometimes devised. For
example. four or five sturdy men are
armed. two with long spears cross
buried on the handles close to the
sharp two edged blade, and two or
three with ten foot bamboos. of which
the ends are smeared with bird lime.
These hunters sally forth with dogs
before dawn. They pass along the base
Of the hills with the fresh morning
wind blowing up the plains below.
Should the hunters he lucky 1t Is not
long before the dogs wind the bear.
The dogs are slipped and disappear in
the seinidarkness. Soon their roaring
and growing indicate that they have
found the game. The hunters run mp
to the spot where the bear is fighting
with the dogs. The men with the
lined poles poke the bear in the ribs
and adroitly twist the ends in its long
hair. thus holding it fast on each flank.
The spearmen complete the operation
by repeated spear thrusts.
