' g f THE ART OF STANDING. is, ;s Hon to Ralmice tXi?- Hotly Gracefully llotv to tilt Down. !* I How to stand is quite as touch of a ,:i art as sitting down. >Q" | Few women can manage feet, ham , and shoulders gracefully if they remai standing any length of time. There : . ! i? tendency to rest first on one foot an IH , then on tho other, to sway backwar ' >' and forward or to inovo the band i f nervously. 11, In the first place, tho body must b perfectly balanced, the weight bein )0 equally divided on the feet. The rigb I foot should be a little in advance of th 1 : left, but firmly planted, and nny tenq j tation to sway backward and forwar p. | should bo strongly resisted. je | Tho poise of the body should be pas ; and flexible, bending a trifle at th " ! waist. To stand erect, the hands hnn:> 1 ' j ing loosely by tho side, the shoulder id | straight, but without n suggestion o o i stiffness, is one of the prettiest and mos \ difficult of all poses. It should sugges ! the grace and nlinhilitv r>f m j ready to sway with a passing wind am I then swing back to queenly stnteliness 12 When seated, there should always b ,,r in the attitude a suggestion of action not of intense weariness. To loll excep ' tin tho seclusion of one's boudoir is bac J* | form. A woman should sit easily, tin io ! shoulders relaxed, but as if ready t( j i rise or bend forward at any moment g ; The suppleness of the waist is nowberi I so apparent as in the sitting posture. That is the only correct way to sii >t down. There are, of course, innumera j bio wrong Ways of performing this sini 3 j pie act. Probably the most commoi : way is to sprawl down as if overcoun 's | with excessive wenriners, which souk j. I women seem to think is merely indie a ative of aristocratic languor. It is an even worse position than thai " j of the stiIT woman, who gingerly en ! croaclres upon a chair as if reluctant*tc j. trust it with her weight and determined that if she must sit down she will at c ! least be uncomfortable. So she holds c i her shoulders straight back, throws up t, ! her chin as if she were nfilicted with a of: re * ?% , suu uttit, toncni's ucr toes to the tloor. leaving licr heels to wiggle uncomfort'' ably, and imagines that the is sitting J* properly. She ia cot. Slia is violating every e canon of grace and also looking extremely awkward. Every graceful pos sition suggests ease, not effort. That is y the keynote of charming poses. Of e course no woman in polite society s would bo guilty of the vulgarity of crossing her legs. That is unpardon0 able. But to show the tip of the toe. or r | even to let one foot peep out from beI neath the hem of the gown, is very v | graceful, especially if the foot is a pretty one. A dexterous and almost imperceptible movement will place the skirts 1. in irrucefnl f?M?? * notIceT y Dr. Torrance wishes to announce j. that, lie has returned from profe?s?r>r. e nl services incident to his position or St a'e Board of Health and can now '' ho found at his oiflce No 9, 10 and 11 Foster Building. t- no?it. e lost.
