This pomade should not be used as a

Vocal culture is a wonderful preserver
of the throat.
If you stand before a mirror and sing
a simple exercise you will note that the
throat sWells in birdlike fashion as you
vocalize. This exercise, persisted in, Will
keep the muscles in perfect condition.
And it is well for every woman to know
that the muscles are the chief support
of the structure.
The fatty tissues will not shrink so
long as the muscular system remains
unimpaired.
Breathing exercises are also advised
in throat culture. These exercises have

ANSWERS TO SEVERAL INQUIRIES.
VIII heavy massage reduce thick lips. and
now could do 1t without stretching the
mouth out of shape? What exercise would
beneht recedlng chin Win throwing out
the under Jaw and massaging the chin in a
rotary motion lightly be any good? What
exercise can take for reducing the waist
and hips without making any taller2
What can I do for my face2 It has a
lifeless look. The blood does not come to
the surface.
Massage would not have any appre-
ciable effect on the thick lips.
Throwing out the under jaw is an ex
cellent exercise for the chin, but feats
requiring determination and resistance
are. in my opinion, quite an essential as
the purely physical exercise of the mus
cles. These teach self-reliance, and
anything that tends to develop force
mentally helps in the building of a good
chin.
Walking is the best exercise for re-
ducing the hips and deep brea thing will
decrease the waist measure. without
adding to your stature.
Deep breathing, with plenty of fresh
air and exercise, Will also improve the
circulation and bring a healthy color to
your cheeks.
