Graceful Walking Vital to Health

In this day of rush and hurry beautiful posture and graceful car riage are becoming all too rare.
 Sedentary occupations with oc- company desk work and stoop- ing of shoulders have encouraged slumping until the art of graceful standing and walking is almost lost
 Not only is correct walking beautiful but it is vital to health,' believes Ruth Chatterton. When we walk along with our toes out and shoulders forward, the weight of the body is thrown off the ball of the foot, where it belongs, to the arches. weakening them and in time causing painful fallen arch es. To stand swayback is ugly, uncomfortable and dangerous, as the vital organs are thrown out of position.
 Before we can learn to walk correctly, however we must see that our feet are comfortably shod. Few women are deluded in this modern age into buying shoes too small but often women do not buy the correct size stockings. Hose too small will cause ingrow- ing toe nails as quickly as too small shoes Be sure the stockings are loose enough and not wrin- kled.
 Walk with Head High

 F'lorenz Ziegfeld and other the atrical producers teach their show girls to walk gracefully across the stage by having them practice walking with books balanced on their heads. Miss Chattreton point ed out. The same principles are employed for correct walking any where. Always stand with the weight on the halls of the feet Walk with the head high and try to be us tall as you can. The shoulders will go back naturally.

Nowhere in all the Green Mead ows or in the Green Forest was there a happier little family than the Bob White family. It was both a little and a big family. In point of numbers it was a big family, for there were sixteen babies. In the size of the babies it was little family, for Bob White babies are very small when they start out with their mother to get acquaint ed with the Great World
 Bob White was so proud of that family of his that he spent most of his time whistling to express his joy. Yes, sir, that's what he did. Peter Rabbit used to wonder when Bob found time to eat. Mrs. Bob was just as proud. She was. per haps, even more proud. But she didn't tell the world about it. In fact, Mrs. Bob took the greatest pains to let no one know where she was, for she knew that every one would know that where she was the babies would be.
 Did you ever see such dar- lings?" she said to Bob when he joined the family.
 Bobs eyes tvinkled "It seems to me I heard you ask the same thing last year"
 Well, that was a nice family last year. replied Mrs. Bob. But there are sixteen this year, Just think of it--sixteen! We have nev- CT had so many darlings at one time"
 Again Bob's eyes twinkled And we have never had so many wor- ries at one time" said he.
 Of course, that carefully built nest was no longer needed. Little Bob Whites, like little Grouse, hay" no use for a nest. Once matched they are ready to run and leave the nest for all time. So almost as soon as the last little Boh White was out Of the shell, Mrs Bob led her family off through the grass. She wasn't sorry to leave that nest. You might think she would have been sorry to leave what had been home for so many weeks, but she wasn't. You see she knew that Reddy Fox and others knew that she had her home somewhere Tn that particular part Of the Green Meadows, So she wanted to get her family away from there as soon as possible.
 Now, the very first lesson these babies had to learn was the most important lesson that any babies can learn. Ii vas the lessch of obedience. Yes, sir, if vas the lesson Of ohcdionCe They were taugh; obedience almost from the moment they were out of the shell, Just as soon as their fluffy little coat were thoroughly dried out, Mrs. Bob led them along certain little paths that she knew. But when she led them she kept constant watch. turning her head this way and turning her head that way, 10 see

THE DEAD BIRD
By Alice Judson Peale


 One morning your child calls from the garden with an eager cry: "Oh. mother. See what I found. Come look" You look See. it's a dead bird; it's really dead," he says with cheerful interest
 He pokes it with his foot Poor little thing" you say in tones of pity. And then he stoops to plclt it up. Ugh, don't you cry in dis. gust. Its dead. Drop it-you mustn't touch dead things
 The little scene makes it's impress sion. From it your child sense that death is pitiable and revolting. Henceforth the idea of death will hold some measure of these feelings for him.
 Eventually death might have meant these to him anyway But it is likely that if we can spare our children these early associations we can free them from much of the morbidity and imaginative suffering SS " iilNii Sui o"i SlilluhOou VA periences have made us subject.
 The child's natural reaction to death Is an attitude of curiosity similar to that with which he ap- breaches other natural phenomena. Let him keep it as long as he can. Answer his questions without emo- tion. Let him pick up the dead bird. Let him find out all he wants to know about it. Don't let your self be shocked by his unfeeling attitude
 If you permit your child to de- velop matter of fact acceptance of death in the animal world you have done much to free him from the, horror of death which charac- terizes the superstitious and the ig- norant. A scientific interest in death is the perfect antidote for the fear of it.
 When at last death touches his feelings it will come as bereavement rather than as fear and horror. Bereavement he can assimilate. but fear throws him into confusion be- fore which he must always remain helpless.

Dieky's Good Humor Makes It
 Easier for Madge to "Confess"
 About the Broken Rose Bowl

 Edith Fairfaxs light, apparently careless laugh floated back to 'is from our apartment to that of the Underwoods, where a bridge game was being held for her. But l shlV- cred at the maleVolence which l knew was in that laughter and in the seemingly testing words which she had addressed to us. She had scored decidedly.

 There was sudden dismay in his voice, and I realized not for the first time how big role Edith Fair fax. as his business partner. played i'll his life

that all came along with her. The minute one dropped behind or started to investigate something off one side, Mrs. Bob clucked sharply It was very low clucll, but it was plenty loud enough for the baby ears. And you should have seen those babies hurry 10 mind Yes, in deed. you should have seen those babies hurry to mind. They seemed to know right from the start that if they didn't mind, something dreadful was likely to happen to them.
 When they got tired and, Of course, tiny little legs got tired quite soon-Mrs. Bob squatted down under some overhanging grass and the sixteen little babies snuggled against her and under her so that they were all cozily protected and had chance to take a little nap, as all babies should do

sation of thirst can be lessened somewhat merely by wetting the lips and tongue, but this is a satisfac- lion only to the sensation and can not satisfy long.
 There is one portion of the brain which is particularly interested in seeing that the needs of the body for water are satisfied. Obviously, this is important since the water IS necessary to the conditions of life. Some people drink a great deal more water than do others. EXces sive thirst is brought about by ex- cessive loss of water from the body.
 Sometimes this loss of water is dut to diease which puts great deal more water through the kid Eeys in order 10 relieve the body Of concentrated salts that are the products of disease. Sometimes the occupation of the person or the character of his sweat glands is such that he loses a great deal of water by way of the skin. In some in stances, much water is lost from the body by the intestinal tract.
 Following a hemorrhage with considerable loss of blood, a person is usually intensely thirsty because Of the amount of fluid that has been taken away in this manner.
 In his review, Professor Carlson points out that the thirst appetite has not yet been properly named. This appetite. he insists, is never theless real factor in life, "as it is apparent that many people imbibe so-callcd soft drinks without being thirsty CT drink one-half of one per cent beer without either thirst or hope being present."
