1T REQUIRES PoIsE
TO SIT GRACEFULLY

Sitting with legs crossed was an
ill-bred gesture when gradma was
a girl. Both feet fiat on the floor,
with heel of the right one touch
ing the arch of the left, was the
rule. Nowadays, however, one has
an alternative-for legs are crossed
in society's best drawing rooms,
the only sin being to cross them
awkwardly.
Remember that legs should never
be crosser below the knees, but al
ways above, SO that the large bone
on the outside of one knee rests
on the outside bone of the other
leg, That way, the flesh around the
knee isn't crowded into an ugly
lump, spelling the shape of your
legs, and the upper leg swings and
gracefully points downward.
Keeping the toe of the free foot
pointed floorward instead of allow
ing them to turn up unattrctively
is a matter of practice. When you
are reading in your own room, be
conscious of the position of your
feet and legs You'll get into the
habit Of holding them gracefully
and eventually, 1t will be perfectly
natural for you, Just so, currect
sitting posture will be come newt
able II you try to maintain it when
you're alone.
Don't slump over your book, let
ting weight rest directly on the
base of the poor old spinal column.
Instead, sit straight, hold the book
Mt eve level and keep the chest up,
chin high.

known. Here he sat down and or
dered a bottle of rum.
In few minutes an unshaven
man who had once been white
arose from where he had been sit
ting watching Noyes. He settled
by the newcomer; he had seen
Noyes' roll of bills.
Have one on me-" the man in
vited.
Noyes accepted but kept his eyes
on q clock on the wall. In a few
moments he would go down to the
docks to board the boat without
anyone seeing him.
The camp on the night of the
party was gorgeous place. Or
nate torches here and there gave
off wavering flames which made
the palms cast long, black uncer-
tain shadows. Rugs were spread
with cushions. The boats were
masquerading as gondolas. A New
York florist had produced a rose
garden and Francois, also of New
York, had provided marvels of
food and drink. Two orchestras
had come from the north to pro-
vide music for the affair.
Field could see that Estelle wide
eyed with wonder, was excited by
these preparations.
II think, my dear, he said,
chat this will be rather a nice
party"
1t was at the end of the after
noon and he and the girl were
moored by the dock in the boat
Pablito had run for them.
Estelle looked toward the land.
There had been changes even dur
ing, the hour they had spent on the
water. There was big tent with
q colorful Venetian awning spiked
to the ground by tall poles with
gildcd tops, and a forest OF ever
green's had suddenly sprung up.
If only. she thought, she could
wander this fairyland with some
one like the young man who ran
her fathers boats so efficiently.
She turned her delicate, oval face
toward Pablito.

the first time her voice was a little
vague.
Field stepped from the boat to
help her out. Pablito, one strong,
tanned hand on the dock and the

you might like to see it,"
"Thank you," he said again.
Then he watched her make her
way up the long, water-blackened
dock toward the land.
Field left her as she set foot
upon the bench and returned to

time. Shall we say Tomorrow

"At any time that suits you, sir.
Every well. Then I'll expect you
at that hour in my Office"
Eyes, SIR.
II want to do something that
will be rather good for you,
Smith"
Thank you, SIR"
Alone, Pablito wondered why his
employer should want to talk with
him. He doubted Fields inten-
tions. He had heard of his being
good to men before and knew
that this usually meant shaping
men or warping them so that they
would fit some use of the rich
mans and be fit for nothing more.
No doubt, Pablito decided, JEFF
fries had told of having seen
Noyes. He must have spoken of
it to Field and now Field was
planning to use this information
for his own purposes. He would
try to make a tool of the one who
was shielding Noyes. Wei, Pablito
reflected, Noyes was in, Cuba by
this time. He drew Breath, the
depths of which was made by re-
lief.
Looking inland he saw Estelle
standing before the tent that had
been set up while they we're on the
water. He hoped feryently that
Field would curb those natural in
stincts of his which had been dis
played so fully at other camp par
ties. Doubtless he would. He
seemd so deeply devoted to this
daughter who in no way resembled
her father.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Milk Versus Beer

Kindly give the names of two or
more well known physicians or
scientists who claim there is more
punishment in milk than in beer.
(Reader).
Answed-Help yourself to the
names. You can't find physician or
scientist who denies that milk is
more nourishing. Even IL we con-
cede that the beer drinker can
utilize all the alcohol in pint of
beer, that is, oxidize or burn it to
produce heat or energy, as the body
utilizes sugar, fat and protein, a
pint of milk yields 325 carodies
while q pint of beer could yield
only 265 or 27O calories at most.
Remote Possibility
Is there any truth In the popular
belief that needle orr steel
splinter or filing lodged in the body
may travel and ultimately come in
contact with the heart and cause
death? miss q. W.
Answer-Such sharp objects may
travel but if they do they couse
only monir discomfort If any
trouble at all.
Ouch!
Is It injurious to take a hot
shower and gradually diminish the
temperature of the water to ice
cold after strenuous exercise such
as handball, track running, ect. ?
miss r. b..
Answer-Certainly not If you en-
joy it and feel refreshed after the
shower.

And besides, any criticism of his

time busily and happily with vital
new interests that will include an
other pleasant child and exclude

PARIS STYLES

UNITED Press staff Correspondent
Paris, (UP)-Every dance. or
dinner frock, has cape, or jack
ct, ali its own. And 1t will be In
dignant If you go and mix 1t with
another outfit.
It isn't as IL these items were
million dollar affairs and there
fore had to be sufficiently expan-
siye to 60 with everything from
your golf suit to your chemise de
mutt, Nor are they cheap. They
belong in the middle class. One
often does for two, If it is rever-
sible as it should be. Therefore. the
only exception for one cape, or
Jacket, serving two dresses. is the
provision of Its duel personality.
otherwise never let a straight one
way cape-jacket be seen on any
but the frock 1t was fashioned for.
You wouldn't think of trying to
get through the spring and sum-
mer without a bunch of little taf-
feta capes and jackets, any more
than you'd consider walking down
the right side of he Champs
Elysees toward the Bots on Easter
morning. Colors need not worry
you for the rainbow is the counter

ity and then bringon the color

Such news is cause for alarm for
these new gloves sound almost
