When one thinks of the back with apparently nothing there but bone-- back bone, the wonder is that any trouble should ever arise in that re- gion, And yet as you look at your- self sideways in a mirror, you see curves in the baok---natural curves --and it is at the most curved part of these curves that one experiences pain of the shoulders, the: small of the back and the curve backwards at the very lowest point of the spinal column. Now the majority of the aches or pains that occur at these curves are due to weakness, to fatigue from overwork, or most frequently from faulty position standing or sitting. You ses Nature had provided that back of yours with short heavy bones piled one on top of the other, with ligaments and muscles holding them together, i: These muscles were meant for hard work, which modern civiliza. tidy has rendered unnecessary for most people, and so 'at these very curved points in the natural curves more strain is put upon the muscles to hold you erect. As you look at yourself in the mirror and take a straight line from your outer ankle bone to your ear, it these natural curves go more than six inches for- ward or backward from this straight line, your back will be subjected to just that much more strain. Thus if your shoulder blades are more than six inches behind this line, or the hollow of your back is forward mors than six inches yon have not a per- fect back, Many people may show this much deviation,.be. actually strong, and never suffer an ache. They are the. excepfions, . Now why all this? Because you should really cultivate a proper carriage, standing or.sitting, and prevent pain' in your back. Remem- ber not all pain in the back is due to faulty position. For instance, pain in the curve of the neck may be due to Neuralgia, between the shoulder blades to gas on the stomach, or real stomaoh trouble, in the small of the back to too. much waste matter In the in- testinie, and the very lowest point 9 rain of the joint between the hip -- re i ee: as 1 said News of the Names Clab. growled as he clumped out. before most of the pains are due to| We missed ours last month, but . faulty sitting or standing.
