fence climbing, it would be we'll to do
the following exercises on logs and 9TH
er low obstacles. Then the muscles
brought into play will be gradually
builded up to the more vigorous work
on fences. A preparatory exercise is to
step on and over logs, so as to become
accustomed to stepping high. Another
good idea is to balance on a small log,
and thus become self-reliant for more
ambitious deeds.
l. The Migratory Exercise.-After
self-assurance and supplepess have been
encouraged in this manner, seek out a
strong and convenient fence of the rail
or rustic variety and practice the effica-
cious Vibratory exercise on it.
This consists simply in walking up to
and over the fence without putting
hands to it. clearing it in two or more
steps according to its hight (Figure p,
and, when the rear foot is drawn to the
top rail, stepping to the ground with a
clear sweep with the other.
AS this exercise causes the entire
body to vibrate in order to retain bal
ance, an celebrating effect is produced
on the vital organs, and the tendency
is to replace careworn features with
brighter and younger ones. In addition,
the whole body, especially the hips and
the small of the back, is given bene-
fetal exercise.
II. Plunging and Natural Massage
Put the stomach on the top rail. The
body being heavier than the legs, the
head and arms descend and the hands
are placed, palms downward, upon the
ground (Figure 81 After this position
has been secured, throw the legs over
the fence to either side, and get up on
your feet.
AS you become proficient, do the ex-
ercise by diving over the fence. Later
on duck your head and roll over, and
follow up with the many tumbling ex-
ercises that will occur to you as you
are at work.
The special value of this exercise lies
in its massage effect, produced by the
body's coming constantly in contact
with grass and ground. Stomach trou-
bles, as well as headaches, are also

have too much fresh air. The man
disregards this principle; he throws
away his best opportunity of getting
life-giving oxygen in greatest abund-
ance. So at the season when he
should be feeling his best, when
everything that grows is in greatest
Vigor, man alone suffers from muscu-
lar and mental depression.
To remedy all this, let the man away
on vacation, or while on his little excur-
sions to country, mountain resort or
seashore, take up a system of hot
weather physical culture. He will not
be at it long before he will find that it
is far more exhilarating than working
in a gymnasium with dumbbells; that
improvement is more speedily shown;
that agility and self-reliance is devel-
oped in abundance, and that he is being
made over SO rapidly that his friends
are wondering how he has managed it
in such brief time
This is especially true of that system
of open air physical culture that has to
do with hill and log or fence climbing,
two of natures best kinds of gymnas-
tic apparatus.
Hill Climbing.-To get the right kind
of exercise from hill climbing. select a
Hill that is not too steep. Take as long
a step upward as possible, at the same
time supporting the body on the rear
leg every bit that you can. Next plant
the cane or staff that you carry in one
hand firmly in the ground as far ahead
as you can reach and still keep erect.
(Figure H. Then simultaneously place
the body's weight on the forward leg
and the cane Repeat the movement
when going down hill.
The balancing caused by this exercise
brings into play the upper legs, the
thighs, the small of the back and the
abdomen while bending. The shoulders
and arms are also strengthened by
pressing hard on the cane, and if care
is taken to hold the cane alternately
in each hand. development will be even.
The exercise is fine for heart and
lungs, as it stimulates deep breathing
without special effort.

Hello, Jones; what'd you do during
your vacation?" is common saluta-
ton heard on city streets in summer.
The answer is equally in one key:
Hello, Brown, old man. Simply
ate, drank and had a good time
dances and all that sort of thing, don't
you know"
A few days later on Jones meets
Brown again, and Jones enters a COM
plant
"By CAD, old man." says Jones,
don't know what's the matter with
me- Thought I'd come back feeling
fine and ready to eat up work. But
here am all run down already"
Jones' case is a common one and
springs from a common cause. He
and his kind neglect to avail them
selves of the real object of vacation
time They fail to repair the ravages
of months of Office work by a few
minutes spent every day in practicing
a system of outdoor, hot weather phys
ical culture. They never give their
muscles a thought; they spend all
their hours seeking what they call
"a good time" forgetful of the after
math of previous vacations. They
utterly neglect to take advantage of
natures health giving gymnastic appa-
tatus that hedges them about and is as
free as the pure air that they could
take into their lungs in great guam
titles if they only would.
This neglect of physical culture in
summer time can often be rightfully
charged to the man who is assiduous
in taking exercise in his room during
the months he is cooped up in town.
IN stop exercising now" he says
to himself, since 1 can get out into
the open" But he doesn't stop tax
ing his strength, and there's the rub.
He forgets that exercise in the open
air will do him infinitely more good
than exercise in a room, where air is
received at best through two or three
windows. 1t is a bedrock principle
of all sciences that have to do with
bodily health that the body cannot
