f Irroai the Mother's Magazine.] HABIT OF STOOPING. Jiffs.-?Wv?Ma-Jam,?In the third numbe: (vol. ii,) -of your Magazine, I see the fbl lowing question proposed :?"Is the influ ?3Cd of corsets mort; detrimental to the l _ human frame than a confirmed habit o P doping:" I have tiioug lit a great deal or EL this subject, and, though not. iiitiicrto one F of your correspondents, I will try to throw ^ what light I can on it. From the mannei r in Wliicft the question is framed, one i * led tc suppose that corsets, though acknowledged to be injurious in themselves, are cons idem: jijrgynody for an evil habit of stooping.? This I think can hardly be made out. J have seeii corsets, braces, back boards an i -collars, all tried, and never knew any o:k l - - ofthem to do the least good ; but I will give J .t ? ... ? ...; you trailer nuuiorii^ 111 m*; vk.m?s cm a entific physician on this matter? After at. tributing the weak backs of English females of the higher class to their sedentary habits, Dr. A rnqtt% in his Elements of Physics, {page 212,) writes thus. "A peasant girl\ "when her spirits are buoyant, is allowed to obey her natural feelings, and at proper tiroes ma& dance, and skip, and run, until h' healthy exhaustion asks that repose which isoqually allowed ; and thus sikj grows up healthy and straight: but the young lady is receiving constant admonitions to curb all propensity to sucli vulgar activity, and often, just in proportion as she subdues nature, receives the praise of being well bred. The consequences soon follow of weakness in the body geuerally, from the want of the natural quantity and variety of exercise, but of the buck particularly, from the manner in which t us sitting down is usually performed A girl is allowed to sit down, because she has been long standing; but great care is t.iken that the muscles of the back, which still remain in action a? slie sits, shall not be at all'relieved; for, from the idea that- it is ungraceful to loll, she is ehhef put . on a sfool that has 110 back at all, or ujniu tv jjcry narro w-chair, with ^perpendicular back. Now neither of. these relieves the spihe^-r* Ttio excessive kdigue soon cdtccsthespjjie to give way and band, and the curvature becomes permaaeuV*-. When a'bend Jfifis taken place- in-one situation,. there imtnedij, iitely ioilows yu opposite bend;" above or below, to keep the centre of "gravity of the body Always directly over the base. Thus the curve becomes double, like an Italian f S} and the distortion is complete. Strong, stiff stays are put on, to support the back, it is said, but which, in "reality,'-by supercedingthe action of the muscles, Intended by nature as the, sypport, cause 4hese to fos'e their strength, so that'when the staVs are withdrawn they afe unable to support the This 1 believe isfall true?dbphcyv often do we "hear youn^ ladies say thrft they caiihot sit up at'all without their corsets. Men find no such difficulty,ytior do tho.daboring classes, who do not woar them.-? Dr. further says, (page 222). "stays theiWro, can neither help to make stroiig und well-formed, backs, originally, nor <&$ - they lea remedy after the weakness hep commenced" What then can do it I -mayibe aqftSU ^ r^nawer?aociuiy,\011 me part 01 the child, may do much. She jvill refhember her mothers wishes. ond: anxiety, .and will endeavor to sit up. Time and cxer. ciso will strengthen her back, .which is frequently very weak, from a too rapid growth, that has not 'allowed the - muscles to attain firmness. Walking frequently, for a short time, with* a stick held in the - hands by each crfd, and thus passed over the head, and placed across the shoulders, so as to expand the chest, is very serviceable;* and thq^isc E of that * long neglected utensil, the. large K . spinning-wheel, by exercising the arms and 1 *U/-? nltAot. . tAIM?'. DLUJK, UUU UJIVUlUg uic vuyok) Tivuiu ?VOW , W correct both the weakness and the habit of stooping. Heroines of old, could "guide the spindle, and direct the loom," and why not a modern young lady ? But I fear, Mrs. W., that all my good rules will be thrown away, till all-powerful fashion. shall- restore the ladies' sleeves to the natural place lor them, the joint of the shoulder, and not decree that a lady's arm is to beginhalfway down to her elbow.? "While the necks- of the dresses come below the points of the shoulders, a young lady will be obliged to draw her shoulders forward, in order to keep her clothes tight across tlie back, and prevent them from slipping below-that point that fashion, (little squeamish as she is,) considers the point of decency. To ait^ in keeping the dress in place, it must also very tight at the waist, and here is another great evil. When will good iasle set the fashion, and teach us thai it realh^is not beautiful to have a waist out of proportion to tho rest of the figure; and that the natural rounding and expansion of bust, is more lovely than the flattened, sunkm flonearance. broduced bv a corset bone? ? ? rr 7- -* j .v It appears to me thavevoq devotees to fashion ajpd the world, might be made to see this^liow much more then a sober-minded Christiaamother, whose eyes are not blind. t cd by the " God of this M'oridbut whose earnest wish is to pursue what sKall really -be best for the welfare of her children, -fj tltese hints sliall meet tlieeye of any such, and. benefit her, or her offspring, my end will have been attained. | Vs- Gloucester C.
