as follows:
II you viii pardon a suggestion,
will cay, however, that there is vast
room for improvement In some OF our
methods. Nature has made us in
dependent. let us make ourselves self
reliant. Let us by the Destowal of our
patronage build up home industries for
the man ufacture of all these great
products. lt is no cre1it to the sons

manufactures more cotton this year
than Massachusetts. The eleven
Southern States manufacture just
about as much rs all the other thirty
four states. Our iron goes to the
uttermost parts Of the earth, our
phosphate the other side Of the globe,
our timber to Europe. and our other
manufactured products to various
other lands. But let me call yonr
attention to what I behold with great
regret. Our meat products used to be
slaughtered in our midst, our hogs
used 10 be killed and baconed on our

For perfect respiration two things
are necessary-chest capacity and
breath control. The average individual,
woman especially, uses but a limited
portion OF the lungs and upper chest
In ordinary breathing. Whenever a
little unusual physical effort makes de-
mand for an extra breathing capacity,
note how she puffs and pants, almost
TO point OF gaspIng. The reason for
this is that the muscles Of the lower
chest, waist and abdomen have become
well nigh atrOphled through neglect
and abuse. They are stin and unre-
sponslve and have now to be coaxed
back to n condition Of activity and
obedience.
IL Is quite az possible To educate
these muscles so that they shall re-
spond 10 our slightest demand az II IL
that our hands are trained To do our
bidding. Different teachers VIII advO-
cate different forms OF breathing
per chest, side chest, lower chest and
abnormal breathing-but what we
most want Is absolute control, such
control OF the muscles M shall enable

breathing at the word Of command, for
all forms have special values. Full up
per chest breathing Is used most, but
lower chest and abdominal breathing
are very valuable In cases Of nervous

exceedingly timld and are very swift
