No. 1-Drawing-Up Exercise.

the branches constitutes the best of mats
With such a natural and free gymnasium
around him everywhere, there is no reason
why man should not be strong and espe-
cially why he should not build up a good
health foundation during this time of the
year when even the most confined business
man manages to slip out into the country
two or three times week at least.
All that a man needs to do to bring about
results 80 beneficial to himself and his
business is to scramble up into tree and
try to emulate his reputed ancestor the
monkey
For its size the monkey Is the strong
est Of all animals; 1t has more power in its
arms than any other living thing. This Is
due to no other reason than that the
monkey takes his exercise in the best gym
nasium that nature has provided for the
health of her children. Therefore the man
who will scramble about tree as nearly
as possible like a monkey will soon find
his muscles becoming hardened and his
health improving by leaps and bounds.
abroad. the game warden in wooded
regions, the 1.-the lumberman and the pow
erful backwoodsman are typical examples
of what tree scrambling and the pure air
Of forests will do for the human body.
Tree work will not alone produce muscle;
1t will promote self-relIance; 1t will confer
agility and litheness In addition. the
rough and tumble portion of the exercise
will work immense benefit by inverting the
body, wholly or in part, and thus sending
the blood bounding to parts that require
reinforced blood supply at times, but sell
dom get it. This Is particularly true Of
the head. Hang by your legs for few mo-
ments, and when you resume your normal
position you will find that its unusual blood
supply has cleared the brain wonderfully.
So with other parts Of the body.
To do tree work properly it is not neces-
sary to wear a dress suit. A pair Of old,
but strong trousers, an outing shirt and
rubber-soled slippers compose the most APP
propriate outfit. Dressed in this manner
you will be ready for all that ensues and
tracted by a sudden rent in trousers or
shirt.
The four exercises described are but sam
pies Of many exhilarating movements that
can be studied out with little or no appar-
ent effort. Indeed. after few days CT
scramblng about thousand and one diff
ferent exercises will occur to the mind.
Limit the exercise by no rule other than
the approach of WEAKNESS. And don't be-

cUP1D's HOUR IN A GRAVEYARD.
Incoming of the Typewriter Among the
Tombstones of Old Trinity.
From the New York Sun,

From the New York Sun.
It is just after the chimes Of old Trinity
have proclaimed noon that the paths
among the tombstones in the churchyard
begin to blossom with picture hats and
ribbons. 1t is the stenographers' hour at
Trinity The graveyard has become
park, a picnic ground, trysting place.
From the low slabs girls swing their feet
contentedly holding book in one hand
and a cracker in the other. On the steps
of the shaft concentrating the heroes Of
the revolution they do homage to sand
wiches and fruit, and in out-of- the way
places, on the grass beneath little trees,
in far corners. you may see them en-
crossed in tales Of love, except now and
then when they take bite. of pie.
But not all are absorbed in imaginary
love and luncheon. At noon Cupid haunts
the churchyard. If you had the right kind
of eyes you might see him perched on
tombstone, waiting. Frequently when the
gravel crunches a girl will glance up ex-
pectantly Suddenly the color rushes to
her cheeks. She bows and smiles and
hastily puts aside her cake. They sit down
together, these two, and forget the swift
stream Of life outside the fence and the
days cares. Cupid looks pleased and
here beneath the trees. The head keeper,
who watches all with a fatherly eye says
that there have been many avowals of
love and matches made in the graveyard
during the lunch hour.
But the minute hand on the big clock
above keeps on It's logged course How
ever thrilled the girl may be who has been
listening with downcast eyes, she can't
quite forget this mentor that SO sternly
measures off her time of duty An anx-
Gus expression fits across her face and she
glances up at that minute hand. Good
gracious. It's five minutes to L." she ex-
claims. Il really must be going Harry
But tomorrow. right here in the same
place. Until then good-bye-dear." When
the chimes announce that 1t Is 1 o'clock
you notice that they have lost some of the
note of joy and triumph that was theirs
when they proclaimed the noon hour, for
the churchyard is no longer gay with pic
ture hats and ribbons. 1t is quite somber
now and Is given over to the tourists, who
neglect venerable and worthy stones to
inspect the very oldest, and who want to
know the name Of this cathedral

DRESS AND DISCOMFORT
Men Swelter and Swear, but Make No
Change.

From the Indianapolis Journal
Not the least of the drawbacks of civil
ization is the character of clothing that
civilized convention requires the man per-
son to wear during the heated months.
Womanknd usually dresses somewhat more
sensibly, but even she finds stays and like
denominations great burden in midsum-
mer. One never heard of savages suffering
from heat prostration, nor do we get re-
ports of country boys being similarly af-
fected.
Man, particularly If he be over thirty, il
disposed to be ultra-conservatiye in the
matter of clothing. He likes to wear one
suit of clothing four or five months, and
then put on another and wear 1t a similar
length of time. and so on. When the hot
months come he may make the concession
of leaving off his waistcoat, but that is
usually as far as he goes for street wear
He will wear d somewhat lighter suit of I'M
derwear in summer than in winter but
this and the Invested waistcoat are prac-
tically the only differentiation made in the
character of clothing that is expected to
serve for the chill months of spring and the
roasting days of midsummer. Stiff linen
collars, heavy linen cuffs a coat and not
infrequently stiff hat, are chung to like
grim death for the most ordinary street
wear, while If the occasion be any sort of
function men are as likely as not to wear
heavy frock coats, waistcoats and a whole
raft of unnecessary clothing
When the shirt waist fad came In a
few years ago it looked for a time as If men
might give up the foolishness of coats in
midsummer. but the few who were bold
enough to leave them off were laughed at
and whether 1t was the fear of ridicule or
the lack of pockets that determined the
question the uncomfortable fact remains
that custom very shortly returned to the
decree that no man must appear in public
without coat. And then he goes on swell
tering and swearing at the weather.

No. Climb Travelling.

lnterlock the legs over the limb Then,
keeping the legs in the original position,
travel hand over hand away from them
until the body can be outstretched no more.
Gig -. After retaining this position for
few moments travel back until the hands
almost touch the knees.
While the body is outstretched frequently
draw up the arms until the chest and head
touch the limb.
The entire exercise upbulds the front of
the chest. the back of the legs and the
hands and arms generally.
Nv. Limb Climbing.-Climb the tree to
handy limb. Walk out on it, get on your
knees and grab 1t with your hands placed
by the knees. Then free the knees of the
limb and lower the legs their full length,
supporting the body by the arms and the
stomach. Gig. ~. When the position is
firmly secured clear the stomach of the
limb and allow the body to sag by bending
the arms at first little, and later on to
their fullest extent. Then push I'D until
the arms are straight once more.
While this is one of the severest exercises
that can be done in a tree, 1t is yet one of
the best. Scarcely anything eXcels 1t for
building up the shoulders and putting them
in proper position. 1t is equally beneficial
to the back of the arms and all the muscles
between the shoulders and the neck.

from the time the mulberrIes are ripe or the

for our fowls. why chickens were SO dear
as we had always understood that they
were very cheap throughout the valley,
they always answered: Huzoor. wait until
asked them how long before the lotus would
be "abloom." their answer was. "Huzoor,
soon after the mulberrfes are ripe" Then
came the mulberries, dark purple and white,
big and Juicy. and all one had to do was to
moor under a mulberry tree and send the
youngest boatman up for a basket full.
One soon got tired Of their insipid favor,
however. and much more tired of seeing
stepping on smashed mulberries. sitting on
and smelling other mulberries, and. in fact.
seeing mulberries. no matter where one

When Harvest Comes.
Now we are referred to the time Of the
rice harvest and certainly rice ought to
bring in returns. for 1t seems to be of end
less trouble: first in making and grading
delicately the little ponds in which it Is
scattered broadcast: then when the count
less pale green shoots appear, in thinning
1t by pulling up three quarters Of them,
tying them into tiny bundles and thrusting
them down into the mud again. then In the
harvesting and finally in the husking, which
is done by pouring a basket of the rice into
O. huge wooden OF earthen bowl and pound
Ing 1T with heavy poles. There has been
SO much rain this year that there are many
fears for the rice crop. 1t has rained nard
now for three days and the river has risen
four feet and made it necessary to close
both the canal gate and the Dial Darwa..a
or gate of the lake. 1t Is not considered
very good thing to remain in houseboats
on the river or lake during July and -\u-
gust. though many people do so, and SRI
nuggur during those months is quite de-
serted. for the Inhabitants go en- masse up
into the mountains to the fashionable Gull
murg. We had intended to run the risk
and remain in our boat. but as one of our
friends had the good fortune to find house
for rent, and suggested our taking 1t with
her, we were quite content to do SO, and
are now living in a pretty bungalow on the
"Bund." the river walk, with big rooms,
each with its bath room. and a huge garden
roses galore! The rent Of the house. the
five servants and the food for the three all
included comes to the large sum Of 1921,
making 1t s2O77 month each. We have
plenty Of fresh vegetables and fruit and we
have fowls, ducks. geese and occasionally
mutton, though not often. as it Is quite
uneatably tough. We have horses to ride
at S3 cents day, which includes a sails or
groom to walk or run behind as one wishes,
and we are more content than ever before
in Kashmir. for we realize now how crowd
ed and cramped one Is In a dunga and how
hot and stuffy In house boat. Our friends
have moored their boats not far away on
the river and we feel that we are quite the
monarchs Of all we survey!'
