A Lesson for Women--To Gain Beauty
With Strength.

With Strength.
Muscle building WIN Bring charms
that the Toilet Table Can
NeUCr Furnish.
Muscle building brings beauty to
woman. This brief statement is sum.
cient, think, to make many women
embark upon a physical development
course. What will woman not do to
become beautiful? They--some of
them, at least-powder and paint, and
bleach their hair, and do all kinds OF
other foolish things in an attempt to
improve their appearance.
If they but knew what a routine OF
daily, healthful exercise would do for
them they would soon forsake their
toilet tables for the gymnasium.
There is nothing in this world more
lovely than beautiful woman. There
is nothing more pleasing to the eye
than Drowned. rosy.cheekeG. full
chested, straight backed woman. Let
her be all these and she is certainly
queen.
When ! see poor, pale narrow
chested, weak woman, with her waist
drawn up so tight that II is impossible
for her to take deep, full breath
the kind that puts health and strength
into the human body-my heart fairly
bleeds for her.
My late wife having at one time
been an athlete, am in a position to
know just what Is beneficial and what
Is not for the average woman.
In the first place a woman should
dress so that there will be plenty Of
room tor the lungs to have full play
| Ninety-nine per cent of them are
dressed so that Il is impossible .Dr
| them to take a good, deep breath.
They breathe up in their chests only.
Consequently they are short-winded.
Then, again, the average woman sell
dom gives a thought to the idea OF
daily exercising. She seldom walks
unless she is compelled to- She shuts
herself up in hot, stuffy room, eats
improperly and then wonders that
she is subject to so many complaints
Colts Many Advantages.
l must say that in the past few
years there has been big change in
the mode of living adopted by women.
The game of golf has been respon.
sible for this to a large degree, and
cannot say too much for it as a means
of exercise for women Ii provides
Just the kind of outdoor life that they
need. II takes them out into the sun
and makes them brown and healthy
- ~.
pure. fresh air, while the continual
walking and swinging of the clubs
supplies exercise for the entire body.
Women, play golf!
OF course, you can overdo 1t. Women
differ so much in their physical make.
up that what is medicine for one Is
| poi. w for another. For this reason q
woman should carefully guard her
! strength.
Do not overtaX yourself Go about
! your sports and your walks with mod.
Grafton. Too much exercise is worse
/ than not enough. You can easily tlud
out just what you are capable of en-.
! during, and then shape your work and
| play to suit your strength.
Do Not Be Physical Freak.
What | want most of all to impress
upon women is not to try to make
physical freaks of themselves.
A woman cannot stand too much
training in any one direction at the
expense of the rest of her body as well
as man can. Her physical makeup
is not constructed for 1t. For this
reason she should try to divide her
exercises as evenly as possible,
woman who can row, ride wheel
and horse, swim, shoot, play tennis
and golf, all moderately well, and not
try to oxertax her strength in any one
