AS to Proper Breathing.

II you want to be fully developed,
with an easy grace of motion that
tells of the perfect control of every
muscle, then take to rhythmic breath
ing. 1t will make a new woman of
you. The holiows in your cheeks and
your neck will fill up as II by magic.
The increasing heavlness of your
walk will disappear. You will acquire
a complete command of your body.
Any fiabbiness or angularity comes
from breathing with only the upper
part of ones lungs Double chins and
other deformities are due to the same
causes.
A clever lady doctor advocates the
corset, though she deprecates tight
lacing, says Woman's Life. She be-
lieves the support helps to educate
the muscles. Support where 1t Is
needed no construction, good food,
plenty of fresh air and complete un-
derstanding of how to breathe prop
erly would result in something very
nearly approaching absolute physical
perfection.

To Read Aloud Easily.

The demands on the mother in the
way of reading aloud to the children
often become quite serious tax on
the strength, and especially IL she has
not learned the methods that best
economize effort in this direction. Yet
It is possible, with little care, to
minimize the effort of reading, so that
the entertainer can proceed for long
time without WEAKNESS.
The public singers, speakers and
actors have, for self-protection, to
understand and practice the art of us
ing their powers with the least wear
and tear; otherwise theft work would
be impossible. Those who are expert
in their line utilize every artiflce for
their labors. For this reason they
can endure public entertaining that
would speedily weaken or XIII those
who are unframed in the methods of
saving themselves.
The first thing to recognize in pre-
pairing to read aloud, for prolonged
periods, is the necessity of breathing
correctly and easily. This means
deep breathing, so-called; that Is,
from the diaphragm. 1t is well to
practice this for a few moments daily
In pure air, either sitting or standing.
One should persevere until conscious
Of using the whole lungs. BY correct
and deep breathing. the strain Of
reading aloud for long periods will be

What Parents Should Guard Against


Love, faith and confidence should
be developed and made permanent in
every home. 1t Is sad day when a
child loses faith and confidence in
father or mother, and when he can
point to the time when he was disap-
pointed and deceived by those in
whom, above all others, he trusted.
Children naturally believe that what
father and mother say and do are
right and true, and no parent can af.
ford to forfeit such implicit trust
Parents should zealously guard their
words and actions in this respect, and
by so doing they will be able to exert
a healthy moral influence which will
be to their children in after years
safeguard against impending disaster,
says an exchange.
AS early as a child can understand
anything, his first impressions of his
parents should be trustful conf
dence. This is the secret of his fu-
ture self-control and the power by
which parents can exert an influence
which shall determine very largely the
physical, mental, moral and spiritual
character of their child.-Indianapolis

There was a time when dogs did
the roasting-at least they kept the

"Spit dogs" they were called. and we

beef, ducks and turkeys. The little
fellows did their work well. They
were never known to let fowl burn
or to snatch mouthful or two from
