Immigrants Coming South.

Among the newly arriving immigrants in the
Atlantic cities considerable numbers, it is said,
are bound to the Southern States. This hardy
class Of strangers has added immensely to the
producing labor of the Northern States, aud con-
sequently to their great wealth; and their pres
ence will have the same effect in the regeneration
of the South, where they should be warmly vel
coined. 1t is said that these southerly- bound i'm
migrants are better provided with means than
the average of those who come to seek better for
tunes in this country.

Use of the Arms in Walking.

The first time you are walking
with your arms at liberty, STOP
moving them, and hold them by
your side. You will be surprised
To find how soon your companion
will leave you behind, although
You may hurry, twist, wriggIe,
and try very hard to keep up. One
reason for the slo y walk among
girls is to be found in this practice
OF carrying the arms motionless.
Three miles an hour, with the
arms still; is as hard work as four
miles with the arms free.
| have seen the queens of the
stage walk. l have seen few girls
and women OF queenIy bearing
walk in the street and drawing.
room. They moved their arms in
a free and graceful manner. Could
this habit become universal among
giIls, their chests would enlarge,
and their bearing be greatly i'm.
proved. See that girl walking with
both hands in her mutf. How she
wriggles and twists her shoulders
and hips! This is because her arms
are pinioned. Give them free swing.
and her gait will soon become moro
graceful.
You have seen pictures of our
muscles. Those of the upper part
Of the body, you remember, spread
out from the shoulder, in all direcr
tions, like q fan. Now, if you hold
the shoulder still, the muscler of
the chest will shrink, the shoulders
stoop, and the whole chest be-
comes thin and ugly.
But some girls will say, "Swing-
ing the arms must be very slight
exercise" True, it is very slight
if you swing the arms but once or
ten times, but if you swing them
ten thousand times in a day you
will obtain more exercise of the
muscles of the chest than by all
other ordinary movements com
bined. Indeed, if were asked
exercise | thought most effective
fersdeyel0ping theyellests of Amer
lean girls, | should reply at once,
swinging the arms while walking.
