In all the various systems Of physical
culture now in vogue the greatest I'M
portance is attached to taking the breath
properly. The breathing should be slow
and deep, six breaths a minute being a
safe average. There is still a difference
of opinion in regard to the relative value
of abdominal and chest breathing, and
each system has its advantages. One of
the best exercises for increasing the ca
pacity of the lungs is to draw a full
breath very slowly and through the
nose. Keep the lungs inflated as long as
possible, and then expel the air suddenly
through the mouth, and repeat the pro-
cess.
Care should be taken not to try to
make the period of holding the breath
too long at the start; the more gradually
the power of doing this is attained the
better will be the permanent results.
There are many breathing exercises, and
one of the best is the taking of a deep
breath and swinging the arms, first one,
then the other, and finally both, while
the breath is inhaled. Excessive prac-
tice of any system should be avoided,
and the golden rule of taking moderate
and judicious exercise should be OBJ
served.-New York Commercial Adver-

The younger daughter of the Duke and
Duchess of Connaught was born on st.
Patrick's Day, and r~ejoices in the name
of Victoria Patricia, so called in honor
of her grandma and that Irish saint. An
American lady living in London, and
who seems to know a good deal about
English royalty, says the little girl is a
real beauty, and that her cousins, of
whom there is a troop, call her Patsy"
Whether this will render the name pop
ular in aristocratic circles remains to be
seen, but Patricia in itself is a lovely
mouthful and a decided improvement
on Gladys and Gwendoline, which are
as common rs Edith and Mabel were ten

German BARRIERS in New York have a
curious system of signs and mysterious
words by which they indicate to each
other the tendency of customers to give
large tips, small tips or none at all. If
a new barber in a large shop gets n gem
erous customer in his chair, n fellow
workman who has shaved the generous
customer before mutters in his ear,
"Brunz'-that is, He tips" 'Brunz"
is a distinctively German product, and
till recently was never heard outside of
continental barber shops. Its greatest
merit is that it means nothing to per
sons who are not BARRIERS, for it has no
Endorsement from the German diction-
aries, and does not even enjoy the ques-
tionable authority Of student slang.
German BARRIERS in New York desig-
nate a man who gives no gratuities as a
''muff. Like "brunz," ''muff7 is no
word at all, and was invented by willy
continental BARRIERS for the needs Of the
shop only. The amount of the tip to be
expected is revealed by the old journey
men to the new ones by various contor-
tons of the fingers and by low German
monosyllables of nc apparent relevancy.

NEW YORK, Aug. 90 Special cores

bitten by cat was scared to death. He
never had hydrophobia. He died of ner-
vous prostration brought on by worry over
an Imaginary danger. His friends we're all
plying him and hoping he wouldn't die

Gated people sometimes are, and it simply
killed him. suppose he read up in the
DOCKS about hydrophobia and it turned his
head. That's all there was about it. Do
you remember what great howl there was
about those Newark boys who were bitten
by a mad dog and were sent over to
Pasteur to be 'curedn"
why, of course; who doesn't!"
well, it's quite easy to cure disease
that never existed. Those boys never had
hydrophobia and never would have had it.
The dogs didn't have it. During the ex-
cltement we went to Newark and found q
lot of dogs shut up We asked to be al
lowed to take them away to our stables, but
the people wouldn's have it. Do you know
what was done with those dogs. After
the excitement was all over thew were
given back to their owners, every one of
them. Not one was killed. Not one of
them had anything worse than lit. Why.
our men, who are constantly handling
dogs, get bitten again and again, but they
never dream of having hvdrophobia. It's
a myth.
THERE ISN'T ANY SUCH THING"
'Then you don't believe in the existence
of such disease" l asked, thinking that

to his story; but he treats hydrophobia
patients. | asked him once if he ever saw
one single case of hydropnobia to which he
could swear. He refused to answer but
he told me this story: A man came to him
one day in terrible distress. He had been
bitten by dog, he feared madness, he
could not sleep of Nights and was
the doctor TO treat him. The doc
tor said il was too late; the period of inocu-
lation had passed and it would do no good
now. Ii he had hvdrophobia there was no
way to stop 1t. The man went away. but
came back again the next day nearly fran

doctor to 90 something for him. So the
doctor took the man into his operating room
and gave him q hypodermic injection of

away, slept for the first time in two weeks
