are weak the sense OF smell is lessened or de-
stroyed; deafness frequently takes place. o

Use or Arms In VVmIking.

Dr. bio Lewis, the noted professor Of
gymnastics, offers some good suggestions on
this subject ..
Tho first Time you are walking with your
arms at liberty, stop moving them and hold
ihemat your side You win be surprised
TO find how soon your companion wifi leave
you behind, although you may hurry twist.
wiggie, and try very lard TO keep up. Che
reason for slow walking among girls, Is
found IN tiis practice of carrying the arms
inoti0nless. Three miles All hour, with the
hands still, is as bard work as four miles
with the arms free. a.atsT -, ss srs rs
have seen the queens OF the stage walk
haze seen a fow girls and women OF queen
ly bearing walk in the street and drawing
room. They moved their arms IN free and
graceful manner. Could this habit become
universal among girls. their chests would
enlarge aud bearing become greatly i'm.
proved Sec that girl walking with both
hands in her muif, How she wiggles, and
twists her shoulders aud hips. This Ia bo.
cause her arms are pinioned. Give them
freo swing, and her gait would soon become
grsceim.,t sasss fatC f9Ta a. a.
You have seen pictures of MUSCLE Those
Of the upper part of tho body, you remcm.
tcr, spread out from tho shoulders, in all
directions like a fan. Now, il you hold tl'o
shoulders still. the muscles of tho chest will
shrink, the shoulders stoop, and the whole
chest become thin niNF ugly.
But some girls win say, swinging the
arms must be very slight exercise. True.
il is very slight 1--WE swing the arms once
or ten times, but u you swing them ten
thousand times in q day, you will obt lin
moro exerciso Of the muscle CT tho chest
than by all tho ordinary movements com
bined. Indeed, if were asked what exer
ciso thought most effective for developing
the chest Of American girls, should reply
ut once, swinging The arms while walking.
