MAKE EXERCISE A HABIT.
An Easy md simple Way of Securing

Exercise is much more necessary to

Healthy stimulation is an absolute
need; without it the body will rust
and fall to bits. The baby that never

bones and wrinkles or else takes on
pounds of unhealthy fat and becomes

The lungs are Il sort of refinery, and
The blood is a distilling agent. Ii the
blood becomes thick and unhealthy and
sluggish the body does not keep its
youthful state. Eyes grow dull; lips
lose their redness; the complexion is

1t is an easy and simple matter to
make exercise habit-just like the
habit of putting out the lights at night
and wondering if burglars will show
up before morning
A most excellent scheme is TO take

you are going TO sleep, when you have

Such habits are valuable most yalu-

practices. Nonsense. Look at the ath-
