Show Friday, February H frti Importance of Good Posture WORLDS BEST IP Correct Attitude Promotes One Health and Graceful Carria GREAT deal la saidLand written about the importance of good posture, both for the sake of health, and a graceful carriage. Most of the suggestions and aids are applicable to correct standing and walking, but the importance of sitting correctly is no Ipg? significant. There are i stances of what are termed incurable diseases, being contracted by sitting repeatedly or continuously in a way opposed to natures requirements, which are a free and easy functioning of the organs of the body. Correct Postures. In sitting the back should be erect or inclined backward. The legs from hips to knees should be approximately at right angles to the body, although they may incline slightly downward. The position of the legs from knees to feet is of minor importance. The limbs may be perpendicular or inclined out. Crossing the feet is sometimes restful to one foot and then the other. Crossing the legs mav be indulged in, although this does throw the hips out of position a trifle, so it is advisable to alternate the crossings frequently. Use of Footrests. The use of a footstool is restful, and many times advised by physicians in order to promote good circulation. The height of the footrest is variable, from low, to as high as the chair seat in chaise lounge fashion. Always the body should be erect in sitting, or inclined backward, for it to be natural. Injurious Posture. This brings us to the especially injurious sitting position in which the body is bent forward, or the luipes inclined up.

Silent as Lightning A LAY preacher who had for many years preached in a somewhat boisterous manner, emphasizing his points by excessively raising his voice, suddenly changed his style in the pulpit, and thereafter spoke softly and very earnestly. Asked why he had adopted the new way, he replied: When I was a little boy I thought it was the thunder which was the most impressive, now I know that it is the silent lightning. It is true that a loud voice has its uses occasionally, but the right word whispered is frequently far more effective.
