A Deserted Bride.

A few evenings since a small party of
young gentlemen and ladies met at the
Central depot to welcome home from
their wedding trip couple who were
expected on the train from Chicago. The
train was on time. Imagine the sur
prise when the bride came marching
along the platform loaded with bags
and bundles almost beyond her capacity
to handle. The groom was not in sight,
and TO make matters worse, the pretty
bride was sobbing when her friends met
her.
why great heavens, Clara, what's
the matter? Surely, Charley isn't dead
or sick, is he?" asked one.
"Oh, l don't know where he is" she
said. "He went out of the sleeper at
indianapolis and never came back. I'm
afraid he has met with foul play of some
kind, or that he fell OFF the cars"
But what did he go out for?" was the
next question.
"Well, you see l wanted a cup OF tea.
and Charley said we had plenty of time,
and that he would go and get 1t, and he
never came back. Oh, I've had an awful
time all the way here. You don't think
he's hurt do your she said to her sister.
"Of course not, goosey. Don't you see =?
He went out and missed the train, that
IL all there Is about It. He will be along
on the next train"
here and wait until the train comes In.
Can dispatch TO him?'
why, no: OF course not. lie is on the
way here. and you will go right out
home and wait for him."

Correct Breathing,

1t has been discovered that the double
chin can be banshed by correct breath
ing. TheNwoman with short neck must
hold her head high, even stretching 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 graceful poise to
the head. and the exercise of muscles will
help consume the extra amount OF lat.
Lung exercise in breathing are the best
cure for excessive stoutness. The best
time for this is before dressing in the
morning and after undressing at night.
Five or ten minutes exercise every 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 and
completely, coming down upon the heels
at the same time.
Another good breathing exercise is to
draw in full, deep breath. Retain the
breath while counting fifteen and then
slowly eXpel it. Sometimes stout women
move the arms gracefully, but the body
has an utter lack of liberty and free mo-
tion or suppleness. Drawing her corse:s
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 ideas of being stout from your
mind, and let the muscles have as free
play as possible. All women can learn to
use their bodies gracefully. even if there
is a predsposition to stoutness. Stout
women are acknowledged to be the light
est dancers, and there is no reason why
they should not be graceful In pose and
motion. If n woman draws her breath
freely from the bottom of her lungs she
diminishes the effect of her size imme-
diately by doing away with that ready-to
burst look that Is generally asSOcia ted

all right and when he went to board his
train he got on one that was just start
ing for Chicago, and when he discovered
his mistake the train was going too fast
for him to escape. There was naught to
do but to so until he could exchange
trains, which he did. He arrived in Gin
cinnati about twelve hours late, but the
welcome he received from his young and
pretty wife convinced him that he was
