much too small.

He had been having things all his

step toward the capital had been dis

Don't Fold Your Arms.

By folding your arms you pull the
shoulders forward, hatten the chest and
impair deep breathing. The position
you hold your body in the most of the
time soon becomes its natural position.
Continuously folding your arms across
the chest VIII develop a fat chest and
a rounded back, just as many another
bad habit works harm.
Here are a few hints which you would
do well to make habits. Keep the back
of the neck close to the back of the col
lar at all possible times. Always carry
the chest farther to the front than any
other part Of the anterior body. Draw
the abdomen in and up hundred times
each day Take dozen deep slow
breaths a dozen times each dav. To
do these exercises properly dress loosely.
You cannot do them properly otherwise.
