HOW TO HOLD YOUR BODY.
Glance at tho next consumptive
you meet. Nine times out of ten his
chest will bo Hat. This may be be
causo of his disease. Tho chances
are, however, that ono reason why
ho got consumptive was becauso ho
didn't carry himself properly.
You aro not taking good caro of
your body unless you hold yourself
in a natural position. When tho
body Is erect your heart, lungs,
stomach, etc., havo tho maximum
amount of space. Tlio mlnuto you
bend or strain your body you are
cramping or putting out of placo
somo of Its organs.
When you stand, mako yourself as
tall as possible. Your chest should
bo high; your abdomen flat. Your
head should bo erect. Allow your
shouldera to rest easily upon your
chest without straining any of your
muscles. Your legs should bo
straight and your weight should bo
borno chieily upon tho balls of tho
feet.
Don't bend tho splno In tho mid
dle. Don't slouch, with abdomen put
and shoulders stooped, as many men
do when they stand with tliolr hands
In their pockets. Don't crook your
back when you sit In a chair and
don't slip down until your weight
Is on tho small of your back.
If you aro going to treat your
body fairly, glvo its organs plenty of
room by keeping tho trunk erect and
straight. Remember this, no matter
what you aro doing walking, run
ning, skating, standing or sitting.

Ho Leaves Town Never To Return
Hearing Before 'Squire Schwening
er Thursday Afternoon Leaves
Wntcli to Pay Costs.
A railroad man from Plttston
ojme to Honesdale the first of last
week to see his wife who is employ
ed at tho Hotel Wayne. Tho cotiplo
have been estranged for somo time,
and tho reception he recoivcd would
have put a damper on uie ardor of a
less devoted husband. To sny the
least tho reception was a cool ono
and consequently the man proceeded
to drown his sorrows In drink. Hav
ing succeeded well In this he began to
look for trouble. On Tuesday, It Is
alleged, that the railroad man came
icro- a foe near the barn of the
hotel In tho person of anothor man,
n-ho was evidently ns full as ho was
and wns also looking for trouble.
The foe mndo insinuating remarks
about tho railroader's wife and the
latter hit him. On Wednesday even
ing, It is alleged, that the railroad
man went Into tho kitchen of the
hotel and threatened to kill his wife
with a butcher knife. It seems that
the man who leases tho barn wis
very friendly with tho wife of the
railroad man and sent for Officer
Levi Degroat who, on arriving at
the hotel, found tho man In question
taking a peaceful drink to further
drown his sorrows. He was put In
tho county Jail and a hearing was sot
for 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon. It
was after threo however when the
warrants were Issued for tho man's
arrest. A hearing was held at the
home of 'Squire George Schwesinger
on Grove street tho samo afternosn.
There was two charges, one preferred
by the woman and by the disabled
(?) young man for assault and bat
tery with attempt to kill.
Tho woman in the case testified
that she had been married 10 years,
had two children, and formerly liv
ed In Plttston. She testified that
her husband came out In tho kitchen
where she was working and picking
up a "butcher knife threatened to
ci't her heart out. She said that he
had been arrested for the same of
fence before in Luzerne county and
was under $1500 bond to keep the
peace. Sho said she was afraid ot
him.
The disabled (?) young man tes
tified that ho had been given a black
eye by tho railroad man, but the
eye belied the assertion. Ho said
he saw tho prisoner threaten his wife
with the butcher knife.
The man who was landed in Jail,
was a nice appearing young man,
but admitted he had been drinking
the night before, but now wholly
penitent, asked for mercy on his
bonded knee. Ho denied all the
charges mado against him and said
it was all a frame-up. P. H. Iloff,
attorney for the defense, made an
eloquent appeal to Justice Schwes
inger to show no mercy. The Justice
placed the ball In each case at $500.
Some time before tho 4:40 train
went out of Honesdalo tho matter
was settled between tho parties and
the railroad man left town, promis
ing never to return, and also leaving
his watch to cover tho costs.
