RIGHT AND WRONG POSTURES Proper Carriage of tne BoJy Ha« Much to Do With Condition of the General Health. In the Woman's Hemo Companion, William J. Cromle, writing cn article entitled “What Every Girl Should Know," tells the right way to stand. | sleep and walk. Following U rJs ad vice as to standing: “In tho correct standing position the chest is held high and thrown out strongly, the abdomen drawn in, the chin in toward the chest, ’-,-lth tho body held erect and leaning slightly forward. Tho weight of the body Is equally distributed upon both feet, either with one foot in advance of the other, as in the military ‘at rest.' or with heels together. In the military carriage the body Is bent farther forward than In the ordinary walking posture. The cadet gets his erect pos | ture, not so much by the physical exercise he takes as by constantly being reminded by his officers that he must held his body erect. "There are three ways to tell whether you are carrying yourself piope-ly. Stand with the back to a wall which has a smooth surface, with the he .fl. shoulders, hips and heels touclnng the wall, try to maintain this position at all times. Another way is to Tie nn. the ba?k, note the posture of the h o nd, should s rs. chest and hips, arise and assume the same posture. Still another is to practice balancing a moderately heavy Look on the head. Place a soft cushion on tho head and the book on top, as this gives the book more surface upon which to rest, and is more easllv balanced. “Keeping the chest hi-’h and th n body erect is an excellent exercise and should be cultivated.” MAKE FOR SAFETY AT SEA Big English Liner Carries Motorboats Equipped With Most Reliable V/ireless Apparatus. Among the many accessories tho' | have been provided on the gigantic ‘ British steamer Aquitania are two motorboats intended to carry patv’en gers as well as tow ordinary rowboat? away from the ship in case of dii'.o - r r. These boats measure 30 feet in length. 9 feet 6 inches in breadth, ar.d 4 feet i 6 inches in depth. Each boot is equipped with a 30-horsepnwer oil etgine. A cabin is fitted amidships and forward end is divided from the lar-.-'t engineroom by a soundproof bulkhead thus forming a suitable room for th'Marconi wireless apparatus which the boats carry. This apparatus consL'/ ; of a sending set which will transmit i messages up to 20 miles and a re-i reiving set capable of receiving over a range of 300 miles. The transmit-1 ting set has a fixed wave length oil 300 meters. Although there is nothing originalIncorporated in these sets,- every of fort has been made to have them , solutely reliable in every way so that j they could 4>o depended on uu3er t’.-.r'. most unfavorable conditions. —Popular Electricity. Lacking Compulsory Education. 1 Although six states in the Union are still without compulsory . school attendance laws and four others have , laws that apply only partially, definite progress during the last decade Is reported in a bulletin recently issued by ! 1 the United States bureau of education. 1 Since 1905 eight states previously < without compulsory laws hnvo adept -J them, and it is thought to bo mot-" | ter of only a few years when compul sory school attendance will be in of feet in every state and territory of the ■ United States. The six states still without compul j sory school laws are South Carolina , Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Texas. The four local-option L states, where the law le in effect hcertain counties only, are Maryland , Virginia, Arkansas and Louisiana. The bureau’s investigation of tlm subject reveals a close connection be-; tween lack of compulsory attendance laws and illiteracy very much in ac cordance with tho length of time com pnlsory schooling has been in effect | and the completeness with which it hi,' enforced. Traces Nursery Story to Myth. The origin of the story of .Tack and, Jill is traced by Dr. William A. White In the Psychoanalytic Review 'o aj myth about the moon. .Tack’s fall an.i J Till'* “tumbling after” are the suctes-, t sivo disappearance of the moc;'. as the moon wanes, name-: of I'i? hero and the heroine being tLaiaseb.-ta | j .significant: i "The name Jack is derived from a! verb meaning 'to increase,’ and THI | from a verb meaning ‘io brea'.- up o'dissolve,’ so Jack and Jill arc n-ii: mg more than personifications of the taxing and waning, and the we-'er ( went after is an indication of the Oe-< pendence of the weather, in particular , i tho rainfall, upon the moon?' Activities of Women. Nearly 400 women aro engage J tally in New York city in guardlug the health and safety of the people. , Miss Madeline Ferrola. a .auMerj convict in Sing Sing prison, costs the I ’ state of New York S6OO a month.

Over 350,000 signed the petition pre seated to the Swedish parliament ask- < ing enfranchisement for women. < Mrs. Schwester H. Arndt, the first j' policewoman in Europe, has been In the service at Stuttgart, Germany, for ; six years. -
