Enquire within upon everything

Walking.
To
walk
gracefully,
the
body
must
be
erect,
but
not
stiff,
and
the
head
held
up
in
such
a
posture
that
the
eyes
are
directed
forward.
The
tendency
of
untaught
walkers
is
to
look
towards
the
ground
near
the
feet;
and
some
persons
appear
always
as
if
admiring
their
shoe-ties.
The
eyes
should
not
thus
be
cast
downward,
neither
should
the
chest
bend
forward
to
throw
out
the
back,
making
what
are
termed
round
shoulders;
on
the
contrary,
the
body
should
be
held
erect,
as
if
the
person
to
whom
it
belongs
were
not
afraid
to
look
the
world
in
the
face,
and
the
chest
by
all
means
be
allowed
to
expand.
At
the
same
time,
everything
like
strutting
or
pomposity
must
be
carefully
avoided.
An
easy,
firm,
and
erect
posture
is
alone
desirable.
In
walking,
it
is
necessary
to
bear
in
mind
that
the
locomotion
is
to
be
performed
entirely
by
the
legs.
Awkward
persons
rock
from
side
to
side,
helping
forward
each
leg
alternately
by
advancing
the
haunches.
This
is
not
only
ungraceful
but
fatiguing.
Let
the
legs
alone
advance,
bearing
up
the
body.

Utility
of
Singing.
It
has
been
asserted,
and
we
believe
with
some
truth,
that
singing
is
a
corrective
of
the
too
common
tendency
to
pulmonic
complaints.
Dr.
Rush,
an
eminent
physician,
observes
on
this
subject:
"The
Germans
are
seldom
afflicted
with
consumption;
and
this,
I
believe,
is
in
part
occasioned
by
the
strength
which
their
lungs
acquire
by
exercising
them
in
vocal
music,
for
this
constitutes
an
essential
branch
of
their
education.
The
music
master
of
an
academy
has
furnished
me
with
a
remark
still
more
in
favour
of
this
opinion.
He
informed
me
that
he
had
known
several
instances
of
persons
who
were
strongly
disposed
to
consumption,
who
were
restored
to
health
by
the
exercise
of
their
lungs
in
singing."
