BENT.BACKED WOMEN
Atev sentences ago. The proportion
Of nv sex with . slight curvature Of the
@iae. one shoulder or hip higher than
Re other, or some other irTegularity,
fhat any dress- maker will tell you that
kv dresses have two sides exactly alike
n shane. On this basis of faot an en-
tefpsising woman has undertaken to
buid up . businessmen by padding
and pressing to force symmetry, but on
the theory that gymnastics will remedy
the fault II properly employed. She has
opened small private gymnasi UNI, In
which light Indian clubs, dulnb-bells,
tnpezes, ladders and other appliances
for exercise are provided. The candi-
date for shaping Is first carefully exam
ined, in order to determine exactly her
departures from true grace and accu-
raey. Then the kind Of exercise to de-
veiop the lacking spot Is prescribed. If
enc hip is out of plumb, swinging from
the tr1peze by the legs, accompanied by
= swaying from side to side, IL recon-
mended. II round shoulders are the
blemish clui,-swinging and hanging by
the hands from rings are the proper ex-
crises. How much real improvement
can thus l'e accomplished l do not
know, but have no doubt It IL cOnsid- |
enable. The exercise Is good, ut least;
and it would he wise for every girl or
woman to swing light pair OF Indian
clubs in her room In getting out Of bed
II the morning, before putting on any
clothes to interfere with the free move
meat Of the arms and shoulders. This
pE1ctice Is coming into vogue . little,
but nowhere near % fast as It ought to.
Let any vigorous young woman try it,
and find out how good It feels to get
hsfself into . state Of glow and expan-
sion, and she will continue It II she has
half an ounce Of vim. After getting
into preparation, flop into . beth-tub
full Of warm water, rub yourself dry
with coarse towel, and there you are
ior day free from headache and las
situde.
