Journal for June, what has the 10th
century done to the woman herself?
Are her school training. her colleges
and her work in art and literature
making her a more womanly woman,
more At to be a wife and mother? II
not, they are losses to her, not gains.
The chief change which the last cen
fury made in the American woman
was that it tempted her to give up for
the new occupations Of art, reform and
money making, her own real work as
homemaker, wife and mother. The
10th century has dragged our women
from their natural base. It has given
them noble surroundings for their
lives; literature, art, social power.
But they are not content. They are
nervous and restless beyond any form

them Is too light. They look out on
the world with starved eyes. The
wiser among them are finding out
that what they want Is not show and
work and applause. but a Sim
pie life. repose and the homely anec.
tons Of home"

A Remark

Tho Tsang-Po river. in Asia. is in
several respects the most remarkable
stream in the world. It is the high
est Of all navigable rivers, flowing
for nearly 1000 miles at an eleva-
ton Of from 1000 to $4,000 feet. Dur
ing the greater part Of Its course its
current is sluggish, but for 100 miles
or more the mighty river in its descent
to the coast plain runs with the speed
Of q mountain torrent. Though one
Of the largest Of Central Asian
streams, It has never been followed
from its source to its mouth, and un-
til recently 1t was doubtful into what
river 1t flowed. The attempts to solve
Its mysteries have been attended with
almost unparalleled heroism. endur-
ance, steadfastness. and self-sacriice.
for the principal explorers Of the
Tsang-Po have been animated, not
as those who have sought the fountain

Of loyalty to duty.

HOW TO BREATHE

and Full Dust.

Breathing exercises are invaluable II
n would have q high chest, nrm. full
bust and Q: waist round. and supple,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Nature
did not intend us to waddle about with
dropping chests, looking like consump-
tives ready to give up. Expand the
lungs to the limit. Raise your chest
and keep 1t raised. Practice the exer-
cises al they r given here. but make
1t q rule to breathe correctly all the
time. 1t Is quite as necessary to- get
all the bad air out as 1t Is to get plenty
Of fresh air in. When you rise In the
morning, slip IN a bath robe and bad
room slippers. Open the windows. To
take breathing exercises without per-
feet ventilation In the room is to
waste your time. place yourself in an
erect. easy position, with one foot q
little forward. allowing the weight to
rest upon 1t. Put the arms akimbo.
with fingers pressing on, the abdominal
muscles in front and the thumbs on the
muscles on either side Of the spine.
Hold the head straight and the hips
back, the same with the shoulders,
chest high and full. Take q deep.
tranquil breath, but n that will
cause the chest to rise and fall fully
and freely at every effort. Do this
20 times. In the act Of inspiration take
in as much air as you can hold. In the
act. Of respiration give out as little
as possible. This is particularly
essary in ELUSIVE breathing, which is
excellent for chest development. Draw
ina full breath, and send it forth in
a prolonged sound Of the letter H.
Never mind If you do sound like a
steam radiator ready to explode. You
will get a chest, and the girl who
laughs and sneers will not. Exercise
In expulsive breathing: Draw in a
full breath and emit it with a lively
expulsive force, still clinging to your
H sound. Do not prolong 1t like you
do in your ELUSIVE breathing. Lot it
be a sort Of snort. the breath being
projected into the air. Before going
to sleep, give your lungs an air bath.
Lie fiat on the back with nc pillow
under the head. Place the arms close
to the sides. then inhale and exhale
slowly, allowing yourself q rest Of i've
or ten seconds between breaths. Do
this Is times. Then. with arms ex-
tended straight out across the bed.

Fight With
Panther

An exciting story Of a fight with q
panther is given by a writer in the
Asian. The incident occurred while
three sportsmen were shooting small
game in the western Chats. a range of
mountains in Southern India. listen
ing intently B. fancied that he caught
the word "bagh." but 1t was impossible
to distinguish sounds clearly in the
pandemonium that was going on, and
it seemed almost incredible that any
thing in the way of big game could
have remained in the beat 30 late. So
putting the fancy concerning the word
he had heard down in Imagination. or
else the possibility Of a small wildcat
for natives call everything Of the cat
species "bagh"-he did not change his
small shot cartridges. Three minutes
afterward there was a stealthy rustic
in the tangled grass and bushes in
front Of him. and. expecting a hare or
a jungle fowl. he threw his gun for
ward Just as the bushes parted and the
savage head of a huge panther rose
into view about twenty-five yards
away. Utterly staggered b. lowered his
gun again. To fire at a panther with
small shot is wise only when you are
anxious to obtain an express passage
to the next world, and before he could
change his cartridges the brute had
seen him and sunk silently back into
the underground. B. catching a glimpse
of his heavy tawny body gliding later
ally across the beat in the direction Of
F.'s station. Springing to his feet and
shouting q hasty word of warning to
F., which. 1t afterward appeared. the
latter heard only imperfectly, B. re-
placed his hot cartridges with ball and
attempted to follow the panther. But
the u%ndegrowth was thick. and his
progress being necessarily slow. he had
not proceeded more than q few yards
when a shot rang out. quickly followed
by another, and the next second F..s
voice reached him vigorously shouting
for assistance. 3D.. H.. for heavens
sake look sharp or I'm done fort" This
was followed by mufned growls and
snarls, coupled with reiterated. but
fainter shouts for help from F.
Crashing blindly through the under
growth toward the sounds. B. stumbled
almost on his head into the space COM
parative open Jungle which fronted F.'s
station. AS he did 30, and vainly tried
to steady his pulse and hand. H., from
the opposite direction, also burst on
the scene. And the sight they both saw
was sufficiently fearful. F.. on one knee
