."But you do not understand me.
The trip to England, in itself, was val
ueless. 1t was the knowledge which
this young lady gained there that
showed her the way to her present
health and beauty. The whole secret
is contained in two words they are
. JUDICIoUs EXERCISE. .
The young woman in England rides,
walks, rows, plays lawn tennis, botan-
ICES, rides the tricycle., goes through a
course Of calisthenics, every morning;
In short, is on the Jump from morning
till night, and the result IS she is gen
orally as healthy and hearty as her
brothers. In the present state Of socie-
ty in this country, all, these things can
not be INDUCED in by our girls without
more or less inconvenience and expense;
but no one is SO circumstanced that she
cannot take all the exercise that is
. required to give her a sound mind in
sound body.
Suppose you tell me what you con-.
slider judicious exercise for a lady,
II can do that in q few words.
Round shoulders, a stopping gait, and a
fat chest are the rule rather than the
exception. They can be cured in 8
very short time by fifteen minutes ex-
ercise night and 4, morning in the open
air or in well ventilated room. The
morning exercise had better be taken
immediately after rising, before dress
ing for the day, as tight clothing will
interfere with the free movements re-

The first thing to be done is to stand
erect, with the heels together, the head
thrown back, the chest out and hands
/ hanging loosely at the side. Then the
lungs should DO filed with air and slow
" exhausted, perhaps half a dozen
times. The arms should be thrown
forward at full length in front, on a
level with the shoulders. the palms of
the hands in contact Keeping the
arms extended, the handsshould be for
chilly thrown backward until the backs
Of the hands touch behind the shoulders,
while the palms come together before
the. chest. Let this motion be gone
through with rapidly some thirty times.
TN the next move hold the arms
straight above the head, with the palms
I Of the hands forward; now, bending the
hips, bring the arms down in front,
keeping them straight all the time, until
the fingers touch the toes then return
the arms to their original position above
the head. This motion should be per-
formed very slowly twenty or thirty
times. At first it will almost be impos-
sible to touch the floor with the finger
tips without bending the knees, but IN
the course of time it will be performed
readily. :s Y asf. "A. .5E: 5.ss Z 4
