FINE FOR THE FIGURE.
Not All Can Take Course of Physical Culture, But Following Every
 One May Practice.

On arising and the last thing be- fore going to bed, while you are clad in your night dress, stand with your back against the window or door and fill your lungs, breathing through the nostrils with the mouth closed, until your lungs are able to hold no more. Retain breath while you count four. Expel it through the nose, counting seven. Practice this movement for ten consecutive times.
 Next, stand upright and turn out the toes so that the heels touch. Place your hands on the hops. the fingeS on the diaphragm-the thumbs back in the soft part of the back on either side of the spinal column. Now. draw in a deep breath and force the air down, so that you feel the air pressed out through the expansion of the low CT part of the lungs. Hold the breath while counting four; expel while you count seven. Practice this movement six times.
 Next stand upright, head up. shoul- ders thrown back, arms hanging by the side. Now gradually raise the arms until they are high above the head. While you are performing this movement. take in a deep breath through the nostrils. until the lungs can hold no more. Retain the breath while counting four, then gradually lower the arms. and at the same time expel the hreath and count seven. Re. peat this six times.

BoERs IN NEW COUNTRY.
Firing of British Rule, Many of Them Emigrate to Argen-
 tine Republic.

Immigration of Boer people to the Argentine republic has commenced. A few weeks ago about 300 of them, all strong men. women and children from the Transvaal. Orange River Colony, and Cape Colony. under guidance of the resolute P Van wyk, a hero of the battle of Magersfontein. arrived at Cape Town to sail on the Highland Fling.
 Five hundred estates, each of 5000 acres, are already at the disposition of the immigrants, the price being e250 for each estate, to be paid in five year. ly installments. The new settlers will set themselves to cattle rearing and especially to sheep raising. They in- tend to build churches and schools as soon as possible. and committee for education is already chosen and ap- proved of by the Argentine govern ment They will have the right to have their children taught in the Dutch language as we'll as in Spanish.
 The Boers have not sold their lands in South Africa and will not do SO at present. They emigrate because they are tired of British rule, but not be- cause they are poor.
 i. Th.y-think much of their future lib- erty and go full of pluck to their new country.

Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

There is a great race for headline honors at the Jacques this week and the contest is so close that it will probably result in a dead heat. It is no easy task to pick favorite from such a group of artists as MT and Mrs Gardner Crane Sherm .n and De Forrest and Shaun Singh Hpoo, the three big features of the play card, because the acts they present are of such widely different varieties. The Cranes have one act comedy, "A Yankees Love for DiXie," Sherman and De Forrest offer an upr0arloua frolic called "The Fall of Port Ar thu," and 'The Little Black Man" is a gymnast of extraordinary skill con sidering his size and strength Mir and Mrs Crane are old friends whose accomplishments as finished and capa- ble players need no dilatiOn upon, and Sherman and De Forrest are also well known to Waterbury's play lgoers, but Shaun Singh Hpoo is the stranger within the gates. They all, however. are sure of one thing, and that is the giving of supreme satis- faction even to the most captious critics and that is the purpose in life of all good performers. Equally keen is the rivalry among the supporting numbers contributed by Mitchell and Marron, the, minstrel men, Josie An toinefte.1fhe character comedieHhe, Pierce and Opp. German dialecticians, and Musical Simpson. With such con ditions the patrons of the house can prepare for one of the best bills ever given here. Prices are 10. 20 and 30 cents: afternoons 10 and 20 cents, la dies 10
