How to Breathe.

Z
lThereis one rule to be observed ina ta.i
King exercise by walking 1.-The very best
form in which it can be taken by the young
and able bodied Of all ages and that is,
never to allow the action Of respiration to
be carried on through the mouth. The ma
sal passages are clearly the medium through
which respiration was, by our Greatorp'
designed to be carried on. HGod hreathedl
into mans nostrils the breath oil, lifeDaopre7.
vfous to his becoming living creature,777u
The difference in the exhaustion of strength
by longwalk with the mouth firmly closed
and respiration carried on through the nos
trils instead of through the mouth, is in,
conceivable to those who have never tried
the experiment Indeed, this mIschevops
and really unnatural habit of carrying On
the work of inspiration and expiration
through the mouth, instead of throughthea
nasal passages. is the tfne origin ofoalAnosti
all the diseases of the throat and lungs, as,
bronchitis, congestion asthma and even;
consumption Fitself That excessive, per
spiratiOn to which, some individuals are SO
liable in their sleep, which is so Weakening
to the body, is solely the effectof snch per-
sons sieeping with their mouths unclosed.
And the same unpleasant and exhaustive
results arise ito the animal system from
walking g5with the mouth open, instead Off
when nOtengaged in conversation, presery-a
ing the lips in state of firm but quiet
compression. g,l As the heat and yeloeityaof
the blood through the lungs depend almost
entirely upon the quantity of the ,atInoss-s
pheric air inhaled with each Inspiration,
and it is unavoidable that it should be Ia
ken in, Gin volume, by the mouth, while it
can only beisupplied dinmoderateq quantities
and just insufficient proportion to serve the
purpose of a bhealthy respiratory action,
while supplied through the rnostrls, it is.
clear, that the body, must be much lighter
and cooler, and the breathing mpch freer
and easier, when the latter conrse rather
than the former is the one adopted Chil-'
dren oughtinever to be allowed TO stand or
walk with their mouths open for besides
the vacant appearance itgiyes to thecetnsa
tenance, ,Iitis the certain precursorofcoughs
