CORRECT BREATHING.

How 1t IL Said to Help the Stout Woman
to Become Thinner.
1t has been discovered that the double
chin can be banished by correct breath
ing. The woman with short neck
must hold her head high, even stretch
ing her neck until conscious of the
tension of the cords. She should also
practice dropping her head and letting
it roll listlessly about. This will give
4 graceful poise to the head, and the
exercise Of muscles will help consume
the extra amount of fat. Lung eNer-
cises in breathing are the best exercises
for excessive stoutness. The best time
for this is before dressing in the morn
ing and after undressing at night.
Five or ten minutes exercise each day
will reduce the flesh in a wonderfully
short time. Stand erect, with the head
and chin we'll up, and rise upon the
toes at each inspiration, holding the
breath a moment. then expelling it
forcibly, coming down upon the heels
at the same time.
Another good breathing exercise is
to draw in a full, deep breath. Retain

slowly eNpelit. Sometimes stout wom-
en- move arms gracefully, but the body
has an utter lack of liberty and free
motion to suppleness. Drawing her
corsets tighter never did make a stout
woman less stout in appearance. The
first care is not to lace too tightly; the
second is to Danish all idea of being
stout from your mind, and let the
muscles have as free play as possible.
All women can learn to use their bod
les gracefully, even if there is a predis-
position to stoutness. Stout women
are often the lightest dancers, and
there is no reason why they should not
be graceful in pose and motion. If Il
woman draws her breath freely from
the bottom of her lungs she diminishes
the effect Of her size Immediately by
doing away with that ready-to-burst
look that is generally associated with
stoutness. That is the look that must
be avoided, even if the waist measures
an inch or so more and the bust and
shoulders gain a little.-Philadelph

FOUNDATION STOCK.
a Subject That Should BE Studied BY
Every Progressive breeder.

GScFy progressive Breeder.
AS a foundation principle, says Prof.
MORROW, we want to use for the sire and
dam hogs that have those characteris-
ties we desire and have those fixed by
good breeding. It is in accordance with
the best practice and with the best
theory that, given reasonable purity of
breeding, it is more important to have
an additional merit in the sire and dam
IMAM III the more remote ancestry, and
SO, in a descending scale, as we go back:
Ii we will bear in mind that in going,
back only ten generations, we are each
OF MS carrying the blood of l ,O24 men and
women in our veins, if there have been
no lntermarriagc of relations, we will
see we need not worry about what our
tenth parental ancestor was. So when q
man tells Inc the good points of a GER
tain breed of hogs way back in 1900 it
don't carry much weight. As a rule,
we had better look to the individual
merit. He thinks we make mistake
in breeding when we insist upon get
ting coarseness, perhaps length of body,
III the dam and look for a compact and
possibly slightly effeminate male.
Among hogs the male, as rule, is
coarser than the female.
There may wisely be distinction
made in the practice of the professional
breeder and the common breeder who is
raising hogs, not for breeding purposes,
but to be sold in the market. Let the
first, as far as possible, breed from ma
ture stock. Let him see that his hogs
get Il good deal of exercise. Prof Nor
row has no faith whatever in the wis
dom of the practice of continuing any
animal designed for breeding purposes
without exercise, summer or winter.
On the other hand he would not have
the farmer who breeds hogs for the
general market be overly careful. 1t
will not do to say that it is wise for him
to breed only from mature animals. He
will not do it, and as rule he would
make less money if he did. If he will
renew his stock from the skillful pro-
fessional breeder he will make more
money by breeding from comparatively
young animals, and as soon as may be
turning off the dams for pork, than he
will by following the practice SO impor-
tant to the professional breeder. 1t will
be wise for the producer of the pig that
he wants to sell for pork, to feed liber-
ally and well at as early an age as
practica ble.--Farmers' Voice.

Wherever the room for the horse
stable is small, as it is where the stalls
are arranged across one end of the barn

THE HAIR AND SCALP.

While Having the Head shampoood.
I'VE are never too old to learn" is GER
tainly true in many cases, and made
some rather startling discoveries re-
garding this important subject, and
found that many common uses had h.
come general abuses. For example,
the old rule of thoroughly brushing
the hair before retiring each night
does strengthen the roots, and while
it is good rule for some it is I. bad
rule for others. 1t certainly darkcns
all hair materially--duc. Of course, to
the fact that the natural oil is brought
out-therefore, 1ight-haircd women so
anxious to remain blond should surely
avoid it. Persons with dark hair, es-
pecially if wiry, should part it through
the middle, brush the one half at a
time carefully and evenly, so as not to
tear it. Your brush is largely respon-
sible for this. however; so use a long
bristle, not too closely strung together.
The French are undoubtedly high au-
thority on this much-abused subject,
and NJ. Tonsorial insists that the sim
plest is always the best, and auburn,
blond or chestnut hair for washing
needs nothing beyond a weak borax
water, teaspoonful to pint of warm
water. Remember, not handful, for
then it becomes injurious, and like the
good doctrine of homeopathy you find
what cures will kill if discretion is left
out.
Once a month SINCE the ends of your
hair. Most people cut the ends, but
this is bad; it destroys the nourish.
ment and life. singeing drives the
fluid back to the roots. This is GUS
tom said to have had it's origin among
women of the West Indies, and is prob
ably true, for they are noted for their
beautiful hair.
Massage the scalp occasionally, it is
so beneficial; it stimulates circula-
ton, it prevents the hair falling out
and is especially good when a small
quantity of vaseline is used, but rub it
in carefully and thoroughly, or it leaves
your hair streaked and striped on the
outside, and no benefit is derived to the
scalp and roots for which it is intended.
The old adage of removing gray hair
is an excellent one: ITO the funeral of
each gray hair pulled come 20 mourn
ers," and soon you find the dead fluid
diffusing itself rapidly among healthy
roots, and grayness follows quickly.
The abo1rinable practice of using hot
irons to the hair is responsible for

many an otherwise pretty face. Use
cold water and paper, or curling pads,

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Oyer-fat hens are in danger of apo
plexy.
Wheat is among the best foods fol-
laying hens.
Keep the hens scratching if you
would keep them laying.
Generally it is not a good plan to feed
stimulating food to poultry.
The quality of the eggs depends large
ly upon the food given to the hens.
Except for feeding soft food troughs
should not be used. Always scatter
grain.
While sour milk is relished by the
hens, it should not be made to take the
place of water.
The goose will lay about as many
eggs as the turkey and can be raised to
maturity at about one-half the cost.
Ducklings are much more easily fed
than chickens. Nothing seems to dis
agree with them as long as it is sweet.
One advantage in raising ducks,
rather than chickens, is that they grow
almost twice as fast, are free from YER
min and less liable to disease.
The guinea is a useful fowl, notwith-
standing its peculiarities. 1t lays a
large number of eggs, which. though
small, are of good quality and nhtri-
tious.
A goose is not fully matured at one
year old, but sometimes breeders will
couple old males with young females,
Avoid getting them too fat, and give
them plenty of opportunity for exercise
