The Sisters,as showing women who knew howto sit gracefully. A girl from a school in which theteachers are expected to train thepupils to graceful poise adds a fewrules for sitting. It is easy to sit properly, shesays, at the dinner table, yet thereis no place where the difference betweenthe graceful and the awkward womanis more apparent. In the dining chair, and in allsmall, straight chairs, sit as far backin the seat as possible; raise the chest,and lean forward very slightly. Whensitting on a couch, or a chair so broadin the seat that sitting far back wouldraise your heels from the floor, do notallow an anxious hostess to stuff pillowsbehind you, but sit near the edge ofthe couch, and keep the chest raiseiland the body slightly inclined. Above all, never sit on the baseof^the spine. It is not only an awkwardposition, but one that is injurious tohealth. When leaning back in a chair,be■^mindful of the position of the feet.Keep them comparatively near to-gether.— Youths Companfon.
