BAD HABITS TO BE AVOIDED
Incorrect Pastures, Sitting or Stand
ing, Lead to Ills Which Creep
Upon the Individual.

The significance o. the poStures hab-
itually assumed by individuals is the
subject of serious consideration by
physicians at present. Exhaustive in
vestigations seem to indicate pretty
COnclusively that bad postnres, such as
shopping shoulders, contracted chests
or prouuding abdomens, are not mere
ly the result of careless habits in the
individual, but are due to some slight
physical defOrmity which should be
corrected. Generally speaking, persons
who have bad posture habits are not
very robust.
Everyone has observed that persons
who are fatigued drop into bad pos
lures temporarily and there are many
examples of unusually robust persons
with whom bad posture was chronic
Abraham Lincoln. for example. stopped
badly; but he was very powerful and
never sick. Nevertheless, a tendency
to bad posture undoubtedly "adds to
the trend toward weakness ana chronic
disease" particularly in individuals
who are not naturally rugged.

Start a Snail Farm.

ALI snails are edible and nutritious
Even the common garden snail. though
insipid, is as nourishing as calf's foot
jelly.
There is a large white-shelled snail
called Helix pomatia that is commonly
eaten by connoisseurs in the South of
England, while all over France. Italy
and Spain several species are used for
food. In France there are many small
snail farms which yield a good profit
10 their owners. In the French and
Italian quarters of New York snails
may be bought, either alive or cooked.
and at most of the French restaurants
they are served "escargots farcls' be-
ing the most usual form of the dish.
Snails are easy TO raise in large
quantities. They need lime for ma King
their shells, but they do not have 10

Everybody, even including those who
do not stsmmer, knows the inconvenl-
ent and disagreeable moments passed
with those afflicted with speech halt
ing. But that this inability TO get
ones ideas ever has great eco
nomic disadvantage is a quite modern
way of looking at 1t. DIR. Ira S. Vile
of the New York board of education, be-
lieves that "stuttering" causes great
losses in this country. says Boston
Post. The economic cost of speech
defects" he says, sis registered in the
limitations of occupations that are
available for individuals who have
speech deficiencies. The more pro-
nounced the defect the more limited
the field of activity. The actual cost
Of speech defects to society cannot be
estimated at the present time in dol
liars and cents. The limitation of self
expression is loss to the individual
and to the community. Speech defects
which interfere with the fullest expan-
] sion of consciousness along the lines
of culture and industry are anti-social.
They decrease the social worth of the
individual and rob the community of
the full fruits of human mentality.
They retard and pervert economic pow

ing is always durable, and he is firmly
of the opinion that the state or com
munity ought to compel such cure in
every instance.
