Breathing Properly.

Unfortunately great majority
of mankind breathe very superb
cially, using only part of this
large area of lung tissue. Even if
gersons are out of doors, unless by
wise activity, the deep cells of the
lungs are not aerated for the sim
pie reason that very few men or
women know how to free the lungs
properly. Dettweiler states that
deep breathing not only ventll-
ates the lungs and aids the circu-
lation, but in many cases is able
to strengthen the muscles of the
thorax, especially those about the
upper part of the chest" And |
believe that we have Il right to eX-
pect from respiratory gymnastics Il
real strengthening of the resisting
force of nature to disease. Even
if the lungs have begun to break
down, honest effort in this dircc-
ton will supplement medication.
One of the methods of correct
breathing is to put the hands
lightly on the hips, fingers back
ward; throw the shoulders well
back; hold the chest up, chin in,
and then inhale slowly thru the
nose as long AS possible. When
the lungs are filled, retain the air
until some discomfort is experience
ed, then forming the lips in the
shape of letter o, eXhalc as slow
~ and evenly as is consistent with
comfort, making a slight blowing
sound. Such an exercise for five
minutes, clad only in one garment,
or better, with no garment at all,
night and morning, in a wellven-
tilated room, will do very much in
man, woman, or child to develsp
the lung capacity, improve the
carriage of the body, and enrich
the quality of the blood, which de-
ponds upon the activity of the
lungs for its publication. The

striking Mrs Muldoon in the abdomen
on the left side, penetrating the abdo-

three or four inches long, from which
the intestines protruded. She was

a physician summoned, Who examined
and dressed the wounds, but the nature
of the injuries proved SO serious that
a consultation Of physicians was called
to discuss the treatment of the wounds.
1t was found that the intestinal tissues
were badly torn and there may be other
internal injuries which may result In

Muldoon, the injuries are SO severe that

Mrs. Muldoon is a lady 50 years Of
age and is the mother of John 7. Null

Prior to that time they made their home
