EXERCISE FOR GRACE.

WHY women Rise from a Chair Very
Much the Doll of Their Child Does.
TAs anybody told you yet, little woman,
that you don't know how to rise from
chair' We'll, you don't. The act, as you
perform it, suggests the movements of the
fiat faced, jointed wooden creature you
loved best when a child, becaus, she was
the ungainliest of all your children, and
everybody else laughed at her and Mt you
for chcrishing her most. But you did, and
you made her the very finest gowns and
most astounding turbans you could devise,
and kept her in your arms most of the day
and put her close by your pillow when You
went to bed ut night, and perhaps that is
partly the reason why you sit down and
rise up with some suggestion of her ancient
grace.
But you should have learned better
things, little woman, all these DAYS that
You have been hearing 50 much about ply
steal perfection and the dress reforms, and
the body reforms, and the Delsartian graces
and all the rest. And you should have
learned that the reason you rise like your
wooden doll is because your joints are in
exactly the same inhcxiblc and unyieldng
state that hers were. The secret of grace
of body is supplcuess Of Joint II really
takes all the poetry ont of the matter, YOU
roe, to discover that the elegant sinuoBity
of movement that marks the vera dea" ~
altogether Il question of mechanics, and
depends upon the ease Of motion in the va
rious hinges that coIpect the different
members OF the human frame. But it is,
and SO the thing for you to do is to get
these hinges into easy working order as
soon and as completely as possible
Begin your improving exercises, not by
praCticing various graceful poses before u
mirror AS women who haven't got hold of
tho secret Of the thing are wont to do, but
begin with supplying each separate joint
n your body in this way. Turn the fin
gers round and round on the axis of the
hand; turn the hand round on the axis of
the wrist. Turn the forearm on the elbow
and the whole arm on the shoulder Then
turn the head on the neck-slowly and as
far round as you can. You will be sur
prised to see how easily after a few days
practice your face will come TO be where
your back hair was Il moment before
Now try turning the trunk on the waist
line, the legs on the hips, the lower half Of
the leg on the knee and the foot on the
ankle. A steady. constant practice of this
one turning exercise every day for one
month until every joint is as free and
supple as it can possibly lie made will give
Il grace and freedom Of motion that seems
well nigh incredible TO one who has never
| tried it. The most important of these
movements are those that turn tho body
on the waist, the head on the neck, and
the legs on the hips. Just notice the next
graceful woman you meet and see for your
self how mr h her grace of movement de-
ponds on the free and supple action Of the
trunl, and the waist and tle hips,-Now
