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

j ready to sway with a passing wind am
I then swing back to queenly stnteliness
12 When seated, there should always b

not of intense weariness. To loll excep

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

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

that if she must sit down she will at
c ! least be uncomfortable. So she holds

She ia cot. Slia is violating every
e canon of grace and also looking extremely
awkward. Every graceful pos

y the keynote of charming poses. Of

crossing her legs. That is unpardon0
