"The lungs are Natures first
nd principal agent for purifying the blood

The lungs are natures nrsC
and principal agent for purifying the blood"
fT1HE average woman who is unschooled
in the art of cultivating beauty, would
possibly not attach much Importance
1SGgG to the manner in which she ills her
lungs with air. Yet to knowing ones,
deep breathing is an essential factor in promot-
ing health, which means physical beauty.
Women will heroically submit to all sorts Of
painful "makingover beauty processes paying
elaborate sums of r:Jney for these various treat
ments; yet the ,st vitalizing of all health pro
noting schemes, the gospel OF fresh ar remains
neglected and unappreciated.
Possibly if people were obliged to pay for the
pure air they breathed, its therapeutic and eth
;cal value might then be better appreciated. You
know that it is one of the anomalies OF human
nature not to appreciate the blessings which
come to us without struggling for them
The manifold benefits of deep breathing and
the harmful effects that follow in the wake Of in
correct practice are little understood, and not
accented seriously, except by those who have
piyen this matter some consideration.
A well-known teacher Of physical culture de-
clares that the average person "is too lazy to
breathe deeply;' fact which we must admit
as coming very near the truth
PRACTICE OF DEEP BREATH ING.
Thirteen hundred years before Christ the peo-
pie of India practiced full, deep breathing at
regular intervals during the day, for its curative
powers in healing and warding off disease With
those ancient people deep breathing became 8
scientific cult, such as we but little understand
to-day.
The Brahmins and Yogis possess a peculiar
and mysterious power of storing breath; laying
up reserve of oxygen and ether which enabled
them to exhibit their wonderful feat Of living
during months of interment. .l.~ =
People accustomed to lead sedentary lives are
the greatest offenders of the harmful practice o.
incorrect breathing. To rob the lungs of suffi
cient fresh air is to induce weakness of the
lungs and encourage tuberculosis. It likewise
lowers the vitality of the body, which is never
allowed to be free from impurities, and the con
sequence is scrofula, typhus and other dreaded
fevers, besides various throat and lung complica
tions. ~. -..@.. ~

The Minneapolis journal., 1905-11-19

Every man, woman and child should take par
ticular pains to fully initiate their lungs when in
the open air, taking deep conscious inhalations.
Those who make practice of this for rea-
sonable length of time will be very sure to feel
and see marked improvement in their phys-
cal condition. AS the lungs grow strong they
naturally expand, which, of course, becomes no
ticeab1e in the measurement of the chest.
A severe cold may be materially relieved by
conscious breathing. This should, however, be
actively put into practice as soon as the first
symptoms Of the cold presents itself. Even cases
of headache, resulting from disordered stom-
achs, followed by nausea may be greatly allie
waited by this simple process of deep breathing

brain, besides soothing it, and relieving that
dull feeling which sometimes settles at the

base of it. Needless to say that pure air puts to
rout spells Of pessmism.
INCORRECT POISE OF THE BODY
The poise of the body largely regulates the
habit of breathing, whether it be full and deep,
or the reverse -
Many women habitually assume grotesque
poses which are not only unlovely, but unnec-
essary, and which amount OF fine ralnment
can ever remedy.
They assume slightly stopping posture, al
lowing the shoulders to drop forward which nat
urally lowers the chest, crowds and stiles the
lungs The torso is dropped at the hips, and
the abdomen thrown forward, extending the mus
cles without strengthening them. Some women
are inclined to throw their shoulders backward,
| raise their heads on a line with it, which, of

course, throws the body out Of its proper poise
and balance
upon the spine, and the small of the back, caus-
ing them to become painful It is this misera-
BILE poise of the head and body, cramping some
organs and putting strain others, that pre-
maturey tires women and imparts lines of age
and deformity long before Father Time takes
this matter into his hands. -
Women become neglectful of these important
details and gradually careless and incorrect
pose, occasionally assumed, becomes confirmed
habit. Throwing the weight on one foot and ex-
tending the other, slouching against chair or
wall, are frequent indscretions which the woman
who wishes to preserve youthful lines of her
figure and its grace would never think of COM
kmiting. - -

ton has revealed the fact that in most
these insects have striking resemblance to a
rudimentary violin.
Musical insects of the winged type may be
divided into two groups. Those which do not
use their wings, and those which do for the pro-
duction Of sounds. Of the two. the later species
is by far the more numerous. A very curious
fact in this connection is that all insects are
tenors, deep bass voices being quite unknown.
Many insects sing by day, such, for instance, as
the chickadee, which, however, are not of the
"violinist" type as they play upon series of
hard plates attached to the abdomen, much in
the same way as Spanish dancer uses the casta-
nets. Some insects only sing by night, such as
the domestic and tree crickets. The apparatus
used by them resembles violins, the abdomen
being partially endowed with small bridge-ike
edges ridges against which the wings are
rubbed.

this issue was for the building of the

as there was sufficient money in the
treasury at the inle to pay for the
capitol, had them redeemed FIVE years
