ness, the farther will air creep into
the most remote parts of the lungs,
and thus the better expand the chest
Dizziness comes from the lungs eX-
tracing all the oxygen from the air:
therefore. to be able to hold the breath
longer and longer means that more
and more air is being inhaled, which in
turn, means that the lung capacity is
being increased.
Exercise 3.-Gaining the correct
standing position. clasp the hands to-
gether at the back of the head, with
the elbows pointing outward straight
from the sides of the body. Gradually
bring the elbows together in front of
the face, trying hard to make them
touch. and exhale. Push the elbows
forward hard. (Figure IL When the
elbows can be got 20 closer, hold the
position for moment; then move the
elbows back of the head as far as pos
sible and inhale.
Besides developing the lungs, this eX-
ercise strengthens the important mus
cles of the front of the chest and
those between the shoulders.

is an inch or two of leeway. Expand

GOOD lungs. good health.

Good lungs, good appetite.
Good lungs, no consumption, no
nervousness, no pains in the heart,
no insomnia, no dizziness, no smoth-
ering spells, and little or no danger
from pneumonia, pleurisy and kim
dred ills.
Good lungs mean much air for the
body. Plenty of fresh air means all
the oxygen that the blood can con-
sumo, and oxygen-fed blood takes
health to all parts of the human sys-
tenn. Thus good lungs are at the bot
tom of good health.
Good lungs can be kept through life
only by constant and consistent ex-
ercise. Under normal conditions the
chest and its muscles naturally in
crease in size until the twenty-fifth
year. Increase in chest dimensions
is primarily due to greater lung ex-
pansion. After this period the chest
gradually recedes unless exercise of
some sort is used to curb this ten
dency. This is a recognized physio-
logical fact.
The best exercise consists of ply
steal culture movements. which have
for their object the upbuilding OF the
lungs powers of expansion. These
movements should also strengthen the
tntercostal and other chest muscles.
for. unless they are in good condition,
the chest cannot be lifted property,
and TO obtain the best results in ali
lung exercises, the chest must be lifted
up 70 the fullest extent.
