Phyxicnl Culture.

A rational system of physical cul-
ture should insure to every man and
woman who adopts it perfectly erect,
poised figure. a straight spine, a broad.
deep and capacious chest, uplifted and
flexible, and harmonious development
of all the muscles. He or she should
be easy and graceful in every move
ment, possessed of marked muscular
power and endurance, splendid health
and voice of notable equality and
power.
So much would the rational system
of physical development do for those
who followed 1t, and any method which
will not accomplish all of these things
even for its least promising students,
is in so much incomplete and false. The
object Of physical culture methods is
to render the body n more perfect in
strument, more strong, more enduring
more obedient, to the commands of the
Withholding Magazine.

Laugh and Live Long.

1t has been aptly said that there is
not the remotest corner of the inlet of
the minute blood vessels of the human
body that does not feel some wavelet
from the commissions occasioned by
good hearty laughter. TheNlife prlnci-
pie of the central man is shaken to its
innermost depths, sending new tides of
life and strength to the surface, thus
materially tending to insure good
health to the persons who indulge
therein. The blood moves more rapidly
and conveys different impression to
all the organs of the body as 1t visits
them on that particular mystic journey
when the man is laughing from that
conveyed ut other times. For this rea-
son every good, hearty laugh in which
person INDUCES tends to lengthen his
life, conveying as it does new and dis
tinct stimulus to the vital forces.
