Not shows what is called an elongating
exercise, and this is the forward position,
taken in this manner: Raise the right arm
and left leg in such way that a diagonal
line starting from the wrist. passing
through.the center of the body, would end
In the toe Of the opposite foot. The body
must be held erect, and all the weight
thrown upon the right foot. Raise the
left leg and swing it back by throwing
force into the thigh. The right arm is
raised and thrown up and out, with Mllm
forward. Then, while the balance of the
body is firmly maintained, push with the
extended arm some imaginary object, put
ting force into the entire body, with the
exception Of the left arm. If really push
ing against something, this would not as
sist one, and consequently should not be
taxed. The weight Of the body must be
carried over toward the extended hand
slowly and as far as possible and retain a
balance.
In No. 2 the left leg is thrown out for
ward diagonally and with force, while the
right arm is thrown back, with the palm
held up. Both of these exercises must be
taken very moderately, without any
"jerky" movements, and when practicfn9
them it is best to hold one position as. long
as you can without feeling any strain
say for half a minute-and then reverse to
the other position. These exercises, while
tending toilengthen the body. will greatly
improve the shape of the waist, making 1t
more round and supple.

worn with serge skirts. The favorite skirt

pretty adjunct, but they prevent the skirt
slipping at the waist and help to keep the

Protection A;nclom ania.

During the great fight for free trade
in England in the early forties the Tories
were violent and irrational in their op-
position to it, just as the Republicans in
this country are now. And occasionally
some titled member of the house of COM
mons, notorious for his supply of blue
blood and his lack of gray brain matter,
would raise the point that Mckinley
now echoes--the point that protective
tariffs compel foreigners to pay our
taxes. But these sprigs of nobility
brought the blush to the face of the
greedy landlords, for whom they spoke,
and were laughed at by every one else
1t is mortifyingto find the governor Of
q great state going to the England Of
1S40-8--to the Tory landlords of that
Eagland--for protection arguments to

EouIPoIsE CT The BODY.

Exercises That Lengthen the Body and
Improve the Shape of the Waist.
There are very few mature bodies which
have not some slight deformity. yet most
of such irregularities may be remedied If
not removed by the persistent use of the
right kind Of exercises. Each case needs
special treatment, but there are certain ex-
ercises which will establish the equipoise
Of the body, and this helps.to remove all
kinds Of irregularities and misplacements
In the two exercises given the entire body
and all the limbs are used to the best ad-
vantage, because while there is hardly an
acquired defect which will not be remedied,
where there are no such defects the body
will be given ''tone' and muscular bal
ance.
Two extremes are noticeable in the move
ments Of the American people. Their man.
ner of motion is most inclined to be ''jerky"
and spasmodic, showing an inability to
control the nervous and muscular force.
and at the same time. these people lose
great amounts Of energy by wasting power
not needed,
The other extreme is noticed less fire.
quently. in the languid and devitalized
movements Of, some people This loss Of
nervous force comes from some form-of ILL
ness or is the result OF heredity. The mus

for ''the muscle obeys the nerve, and its

degree of irritability Of the nerve''

There is tendency to exaggerate the

making the di-tance from the river to
the lake about fifteen or sixteen miles.
IL Is estimated that with timber rail-

alone can be secured for transportation.

aud logs distance OF sixty miles, and
there is any amount OF heavily tiu'bered

The directors, stoc kholders, citizens

own vast tracts OF finely timbered land
on this route, aud it Is them who are the
pr ncipal promoters OF the scheme, rs.
sisted by some Eastern capitalists. This
road will, when completed. have railroad

The country through which this route
runs, from Red river 10 the Ouachits

them to be the best railroad supporting
