ROCKING CHAIR is ENDORSED
French Authorities Declare Great
American "lnstitution" to Be
Physiologicaily Correct

Nobody who has studied the rocking
chair will be surprised TO hear that
the French Academy of Science has
declared it the most hygienic of all
seats instead of a mere American fad.
1t is. as the academy says, physioiogi-
cally correct. The trouble with IL is
that it is not always psyehologically
correct. It's baneful effects are not on
the rocker, but on the behoider. It is
an all-around joy only when it Is not
rocked. New, England ladies used to
test a new neighbor by getting her TO
sit in rocking chair. If she could re-
sist rocking she was of the elect. This
simple test of the nerves has made or
married great many newcomers pop
ularity.
The advantage of the rocking chair
is that it puts the body in perfect
balance The skull is kept in the prop
er position. But oscillation does not
add to the benefit 1t is good TO find
an invention which has been maligned
because of misuse indDrsed by the.
scientists. Let these gentlemen next
find something good to say about silk

CHOOSE WOOL JERSEY CLOTH
Fabric Affords Type of Dress Distinct
Iy Worth While for the
Cool Days.

A type of dress that is distinctly
worth while for cool days and that is
excellent for the autumn day is that
made of lightweight wool jersey cloth.
In selecting this material it is impor-
tant that firmly woven piece be Sc
iected. otherwise it will stretch and
the dress lose it's smart lines.
This tendency to stretch out of all
share has been the main objection to
the knitted silk and imitation silk fab
RIGS that have had such run of favor
for two or three seasons. A dress of
one of these materials usually
stretches in length with corresponding
shrinkage in width. so that at the end
of the season it is practically unwear-
able. Much the same thing may hap
pen TO the wool jersey frock unless a
closely woven, firm piece of material
is selected Many of these dresses are
made quite straight and entirely I'M
lined.
