THE TOO, TOO SOLID FLESH
Nothing Helps More Than Daily Elk
ercise Religiously Kept Up, Per-
severance and Success,

Solid flesh of many a weary woman
may he truly reduced by daily practice!
The waist and hips may be reduced al
least three inches in as many months.
AS the waist muscles become stronger
digestion is better and assimilated
food goes to muscle instead Of fat,
thereby reducing the whole body.
Deep breathing also burns up fat.
Place pipestem in the mouth; breathe
out through it until the lungs are COM
pletely empty, then inhale through the
nostrils until the lungs are packed. II
dizzy do not be alarmed, the lungs are
surprised at the gratefully increased
amount of air. They will get used to
It
Practice this exercise frequently, ex-
tremely frequently. 1t is simple and
most excellent.
Stand in correct poise, weight on
balls OF feet, heels and knees togeth-
er, abdomen drawn back, chest out,
and head erect; while holding the
breath bring the arms out sidewise,
and up over the head; clasp hands and
stretch upward, gently at first. Re-
lax arms and exhale. After few
days practice the stretching may &c
vigorous, and the upper part Of the
body swayed from side to side. Re-
peat this movement until tired. 1t is
valuable.
The practice is made more interest
ing by taking measurements at the be-
ginning and at the end of each months
practices, and comparing the figures.
While disrobed measure the waist,
hips below the waist line five inches,
and chest, both with lungs empty and
with lungs full.
Also measure from the base of the
neck to the waist line, both IN front
and III back, to see how much the
chest line may be heightened. The hips
should not measure more than IL
inches more than the waist, or five
inches more than the chest. The chest
expansion probably will be about one
inch. 1t should be at least three
inches.
In addition to practicing the exer-
cises, the student would do we'll to
observe the following advice: For the
first month avoid rich desserts, sweets
and fattening vegetables; eat lean
meats; fish, eggs, dry toast and fruits
except bananas. Exercise until per-
spiratior is profuse. If these rules are
faithfully followed for a month and
the exercise practiced faithfully the
pupil should be able to keep the body
in good trim by exercise alone.

ARTS OF THE TOILET.
To Remove Tan and Freckles-Keep
Hands Soft and White-Good
for a Muddy Skin.

To remove tan and freckles, nothing
is better than a lotion composed of
four ounces of witch hazel, four
ounces of glycerine and the juice of
two lemons, we are informed by a
writer in The Commoner. Apply to the
face, neck and hands after washing,
and at night
Permanent freckles are akin to moth
patches, and require both internal and
external treatment. The internal
treatment consists of something that
will act on the liver and at the same
time stimulate the circulation of the
blood. For this purpose. olive oil.
taken In teaspoonful doses before
breakfast and at bed time, is recon-
.mended as being excellent The local
treatment ordered by some specialists
consists of drawing them to the surface
and gradually peeling them off, or
bleaching them out. The freckle spot
lies under the lower layer of the scarf
skin, Of which there are four. The
outer is no thicker than t..sssue paper,
and 1t Is this skin which is raised in a
blister. Thus 1t will be readily seen
why freckles are SO difficult to remove,
as the skin is stained through and
through. Nearly all skin bleaches con-
tain mercury corrosive sublimats) /,
which is an active mineral poison if
taken internally, therefore the use of
1t Is not recommended for careless
hands.
Another whitener for the hands is
composed of lemon Juice, three ounces,
white wine vinegar three ounces,
white brandy one-half pint. Corn meal
rubbed over the hands after washing
Is excellent. 1t should be used before
wiping the hands.
For muddy skin, good rule to OBJ
serve is. when the tongue Is coated, or
there arc indications of a clogged In
ternal condition. to stop eating, fasting
day or two at time, or with only
light food once day. Instead of eat
ing, drink copiously of pure water be-
,tweer meals. Several quarts day is
none too much to flood out the impure
ties. A sallow or pimpled skin is lazy
skin. Exercise should be taken to in
dilce perspiration.
!. Use almond meal in place of soap
for washing the hands, and the skin
will not get dry and wrinkled; the
soap takes out the natural oil.

Motor Armchair.

Anybody who has had a good case
Of seasickness must have felt that
he would welcome the electric chair
as a relief. Now an electric chair
for seasickness has been tested In an
English channel steamer and an
ocean liner. You sit in a snug arm
chair. A motor under the seat Is
connected with the ships electric cur
rent. You sit and take vibratory
treatment. Up and down and CROSSE
wise you are shaken. Most sitters
need but one treatment. Their ten
dency to seasickness Is vibrated out
of them. Some need a second sit
ting. A few are seasick as soon as
their treatment ends. It is a pre-
yentive, mark you, not cure. The
theory is that seasickness Is essential
ly nervous malady and that vibra-
tion reduces the nervousness. Ger
tainly imagination and expectation
have much to do with the disorder.
Blessings on the new armchair II 1t
can block quick-coming seasickness.
But many believe and many doubt.

JAPANESE CAMTEEN
ARMY CONSTANTLY FOLLOWED
By NATIVE Suffers.
Keen Traders, Who, in Time Of Wa,
Are Ever on the Alert to Get
the Money of the Sol
diers.

One who was with the Japanese
army in Manchuria for six months
says in the Boston Herald: "Old for
eign campaigners remarked in the
field that no army probably ever had
son many canteens in its wake. When
the army was not marching there was
always canteen or two not far to the
rear of every division. When it set
tied down to recuperate after a battle,
canteens were quickly established in
Manchu houses. These carried cigar
cites, writing paper, postcards. beer,
imitation brandy, imitation whisky,
imitation port, imitation sherry. sake
and sometimes Manila cigars.
Japanese are keen traders. Not
200 feet pack of the Nanshan battery
one day, in the seven-day battle of the
Shake, there was Japanese peddler
selling cigarettes, Chinese sweet
cakes, rice and beer to the reserves.
During the same battle the canteens
were never more than three miles back
of the front line of the trenches.
AS the Japanese soldiers pay is
only $1.36 month, and the army saw
ings banks had, considering that, phe-
nomenal deposits, there was not much
spending money in the army. A bottle
OF beer cost ten cents and a packet OF
cigarettes about three cents.
Whenever there was a firing battle
the commander in chief would order
sake distributed as a ration. On the
mikado's birthday a year ago one ex.
ira double packet of cigarettes was
distributed to each man in the field.
This cost the emperor more than
$4,000. Otherwise, when the dis.
tribution was possible, ten cigarettes
day went with the regular ration.
"One day. in an American periodical
received at camp there was a solemn
poem celebrating the abstinence of the
Japanese from drink.
This caused concern among the
Japanese officers, who disliked tho
emphasis laid upon the difference be,
tween their army and European
army, and the commissary general
told the foreign observers:
Our soldiers like drink as we'll as
any other soldiers. Sometimes they
need 1t when they cannot get it, and
we send 1t to them in the trenches
AS a matter Of fact, though the peas
ant at home has hard enough time
to supply himself with food, he is not
more averse than other people to
strong liquor once he learns the taste
OF 1t. Many man will go home from
the campaign with tastes he never hae
before. The manufacture of beer IL
still young industry in Japan, but
from the time the process was i'm
ported it has grown to enormous pro
portions. Headquarters, even battal
ion headquarters in underground
bomb-proof trenches, were always sup
piled with beer or sweet wine. Mar
shall Oyama liked sweet champagne
The strategist of the war, Ken. Ko
dema, drank claret with every meal"

Strains Of Modern LITE.

We must admit that the accessories
of modern life in general are placing
greater and greater strain on the
faculties of the individual. His eyes
are strained. by the intense artificial
lights, his ears are worried by the un.
necessary din of the streets, and his
nose Is offended by the vaporization
OF offensive fumes of oil or by the
fetid air of the tube" That simpler
life appeals to him more than even
which removes him from the madden
ing sphere Of the inventors activities

Cotillion Favors

The advantage of having paper
fayors for club dance or a cotillion
is that they can be made at home for
absolutely nothing, and if several girls
worked on them they would make
their dance most effective with little
outlay for ornamental trifies that are
the principal parts of such affairs.

prices was advantageous to the ped
