The Proper Way to Sit.
A proper sitting position requires
that the spine shall be kept straight
and that the support needed for the
upper part of the body shall be felt
in the right place says Caroline Le
Rtw in May Ladies’ Home Journal.
Therefore sit as far back as possible
in the chair so that the lower end of
thespiae shall be braced against the
back of the seat. If this back is
straight theeboulders will also rest
against it; if not they will have no
point of support and it will be found
that they do not need it. This posi-
tion makes no strain upon the liga-
ments of the spine. It allows a pro-
per position of the shoulders
consequently of the chestconsequent-
ly of the lungs stomach and every
other organ of the body. Their work
is carried on naturally and com-
fortably «s is also the circu-
lation of the' blood which in a
wrong sitting position is seriously
interfered with. With the feet rest-
ing squarely upon the floor the bands
resting easily upon the lap perfect
equilibrium and consequently per-
fect rest of the body is secured.
There is no strain upon any part of
the body; no muscle or organ is re-
quired to do more than Its legitimate
amount of work. The arms should
never be folded; for this position not
only causes a strain upon the spine
and all the other evils already re
ferred to but in addition places the
weight of the arms upon the stomach
and the diaphragm thereby increas-
ing the labor of digestion and respira-
tion. Placing the hands behind the
back or folding the arms behind the
back if possible Js a good attitude to
take occasionally giving as it does
the fullest expansion to the whole
upper part of the body.
Cleaning Lace Curtains.
Lace curtains will not bear rubbing
writes Maria Parloa in ber depart-
ment in the Ladies’ Home Journal.
All the work must be done carefully
and gently. For two pairs of curtains
half fill a large tub with warm water
and add to it half a pound of soap
which has been shaved line and dis-
solved in two quarts of boiling water;
add also about a gill of household
ammonia. Let the curtains soak in
this over uigut. In the morning sop
them well in the water and squeeze
it alj out; but do not wring the cur-
tains. Put them in another tub of
water prepared with soap and am
monia as on the night before; sop
them gently in this water and then
after squeezing out the waterput them
in a tuo of clean wsw® water.* Con-
tinue to rinse them in fresh tubs of
water until there is no trace ot soap;
next rinse them in water containing
blueing. Alter preeelng out all the
water possible spread the curtains
over sheets on the grass; or if you
have no grass put them on the
clothes line. When they are dry. dip
them in hot thick starch and'fasten
them in the frame that comes for this
purpose. If you have no frame fasten
a sheet on a mattress and spread the
curtains on this pinning them n such
a manner that they shall be periectly
smooth and bave all the pattern ot
the border brought out. Place in tbe
sun to dry. If it be desired to bave
tbe curtains a light ecru shade rinse
them in weak coffee; and if you want
a dark shade use strong eaflee.
SWEET HOME.
"Your Sweet Home flour manu-
f tetured by plant of St. Louis is the
nest in the city. I have been over
the city and have examined tbe
flour bandied by all the leading mer-
chants I pronounce yours the best.”
Ho says a mil) man from Kansas. We
guarantee it equal to any flour made.

Tbe Russian Blouse.
The more Russian you can. ap-
parently become tbe more stylish of
late consequently every wardrobe
must have at least one waist of this
name though tbere are at least six
or eight designs in vogue writes
Mrs. Mallon in the May Ladies’
Home Journal. There are three
kinds of sleeves worn with the
waists—a high coat shape one hav-
ing lull uppers and deep close-fitting
cuffs ana tbe typical Russian sleeve
with a deep cap or second sleeve ex-
tending to tbe elbow over the mrd
erately high eoat sleeve beneath.
Both the cap and wrist are trimmed
also tbe collar opening down tbe
ielt side and lower edge it tbe wearer
is slender. A close lining is worn but
for cotton dresses however. Tbe
blouse is from twelve to twenty inches
below tbe waist line belted with a
ribbon passementerie or leather belt
and either plain or shirred at the cen-
ter back and iront by tbe collar.
Hide forms are used if tne wearer Is
rather large otherwise the garment
resembles a deep sacque having only
side and shoulder sesms. Every ma-
terial is made up in this manner* and
the trimmings are as numerous as tbe
fabrics. Pointed round and square
yokes are also worn and when ot soft
materials like China silk or crepon
tbe round yoke is shirred in tbree
crosswise puffs divided by jet or
pearl passementerie. Handsome but-
tons fasten thesegarments and they
are usually worn with “bell” skits.
