Dense smoke from a fire in the basement of the six-story tenement, No. East Fifteenth Street, this morning cut off escape by the stair. ways and drove twenty families in pante to the front fire-escapes.

The titles of the articles follow: I, The Cultivation of Beauty Is a Duty. 1, How to Have a Good Figure. UL, Cure of the Skin and Hair. IV. How to Sit, Stand and Walk, V. Health, Character and Beauty. ARTICLE IV. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. “Not more than 10 per cent. of women stand correctly, in an attitude ing uprightness, womanly dignity and self-poise.” That |s Miss Susanna Cocroft's indictment of the grace and poise of the American womtan, and can any one say that it fen't a true bill? Scarcely a year ago hundreds of thousands of women were deliberately prac: tésing the debutante slouch and the kangaroo walk, in which the entire body assumed a one-sided, tired, dl- spirited droop, the antipodes of grace, symmetry and And awkard poses and movements are remediable, There can be no question about that. able to change the color of one's eyes or the shape of one’s nose, but one can learn to stand, walk and sit To-day Miss Cocroft discusses some of the gulding principles of grace. “I cannot too fully emphasize the mportance of cor- freedom of the lungs and the action ot |* Woman may cultivate other errors as Bad as the one she ts trying to cor- rect, The right muscles must be strengthened by the right exercises that the body may be held tn position without thought. “Here is another test. Stand with the toes to the edgo of an open door, If the flesh is evenly distributed and the body naturally poised the door will touch the chest and will come within an inch of touching tho body below tho waist. This is the ‘chest lead,’ which, if the flesh be evenly distributed, gives the body tho nat- ural outline and expresses mental and Physical balance, “Polse means balance, and while the physical polae ts, to a certain de- Bree, the result of mental and spirit- ual poise, the physical attitude alyo reacts upon the mind, producing a mental poise of which the physical {8 expressive, Lift head, chest and eyes, draw in a deep draught of fresh air, and note the mental clearing and the broadening outi more womanly, more “SWAYBACK,” WHICH AFFECTS STOMACH, LUNGS AND KIDNEYS. “What are some of the commonest of the faulty positions assumed by women?” I asked, “There is the position called the ‘swayback,'" she itemized., “In thie attitude the stomach leads, forcing the middle spine forward, swaying the shouldere back, cramping the kidneys and the back of the lungs. The weight of the body is swayed to the heels, “Often women stand with the thigh joints thrust forward and the chest lowered. As a conse- quence the shoulder blades pro- trude, the lower and upper spine curve forward and there is given to the upper shoulder the curve which we commonly say is indi- cative of age. If one be too fleshy and stand with head too far for- ward the fat accumulates across the shoulders, “There is a fault into whieh women fall who have sufficient pride to stand correctly, but who have not been taught the upright position, In this attitude the body Is tipped back from the walst line, thus curving the mid- With Miss Susanna Cocroft, 65,000 Women.

I observed | The habit of qitting with the | weight on the end of the spine brings the thigh joints forward and cramps and relaxes the muscles about the waist and in front,” explained Miss Cocroft, “In order to maintain the | equilibrium when one rises from such a sitting posture the chest bone ts depressed, the head bent forward and the weight rests upon the heels. “In the correct sitting posture the head and cheat are well lifted and the | back is straight.
