usual appropriation bills were passed.

GRAPES FOR INvALIDs.


1NVALID.-It is a superstition, fostered by
irresponsible novelists, that grapes are the most
cooling, refreshing fruit that sick person can
take. vi course, it is understood that the
skins and seeds shall be rejected. The effort
made by sick person in extracting all the juice
from grape and rejecting the ndigestble parts
is exhaustng. To say the least it tires the
mouth. All the good that grapes can yield, with
out any of the evils that sometimes follow grape
eating, can be ensured by giving the pressed

blood-derved lymph.
Now, when a food is taken into the stomach,
il undergoes digestion, and when digested and
so finally absorbed into the blood it is further
changed; and without all such changes the food
could never be made into flesh. But the skin
simply cannot digest. 1t may select from that

CONSTIPATION IN CHILDREN.

of its varying expressions all the secret thoughts
OF her mind. Good breeding and grace, you
know, seem somehow or other to ally themselves
to each other, and just as repose goes with one,
so must it of necessity go with the other.
A FLEXIBLE WAIST
Another thing necessary to graceful walk is
hexibility at the waist line If this were the
only thing requisite to a graceful walk, it is to
be feared that very few fashionable women would
be graceful this season, for "the hour glass waist"
is deadly enemy to grace. Its proud possessor,
glorying in her devotion in the cause of fashion
is uncomfortable that she can hardly move
about, let alone make any serious attempt to be
graceful She mnces along in mortal fear lest
something should break, and her princess gown
be injured thereby. She cannot stoop to pick
anything off the floor, and so it stands to rea-
son that in walking she finds bending from the
waist line an utter impossibility Her nose. more
over, is always a bright and shining light which
no amount Of powder can hide But such things
as these are minor considerations when you re
alze what the cause is. She has worked hard
and denied herself many things in private for
the sake Of this "hour glass waist" and now
she is determined to show It off in public.
But thank fortune, we are not all devotees of
fashion. If we were, grace would be back mum
ber, and the American would lose her
high rank among her envious sisters.
To gain this hexibity at the waist line dress
yourself as loosely as possible, and, placing your
hands upon your hips so that the finger tips are
pointing downward, bend as far to the right as
you can and raise slowly. Repeat to the left,

chair and sit as comfortable as the requirements
of grace will permit
II you are young girl in your teens you prob.
ably sit either with your limbs crossed or upon

assuming either one of these positions, as tbey

Many outdoor exercises are of benefit to the
woman who would be graceful and as the season
is coming now when they may be INDUCED in a
word or two in reference to some of them will
not be amiss. Roller skating, which is sncb a
fad just now, is all right, provided il he taken
in the open air, but it is decidedly injurious when
the exercise is taken in poorly ventilated
hall.
Tennis makes girl supple and vigorous so
that she moves with all the ease neceasarv ~

ment of that side Of the body at the EXPENSE of
the other side, and in consequence her movements
will not be graceful.
The best time to exercise is in the mornino.
Do not exercise right after meal, and do not
exercise SO as to produce excessive fatigue.
When overbeated as a result Of exercising do
not drink cold water or any kind of a cooling
liquid. Also, do not make the mistake Of living
down right away, especially in a draught, but
keep moving about until you become a little

Therefore, in dealing with children use first
the simplest measures. If the child has been
weaned lessen the quantity of milk, for this in
itself is rather astringent. Give in that which
is taken liberal quantity of cream, for this
is rather laxative Do not give eggs Try scrap
ed meat, that is meat which has been scraped into
pulp with knife; also meat juices. Beef tea,
nearly useless as food, is distinctivey laxa-
tive. Figs, stewed prunes, tomatoes, stewed ap-
pies, are all opposed to constipation. Orange
juice and orange marmalade are credited with
the same virtue. Change these things from time
to time, because they, like drugs, lessen in power
in direct proportion to frequency of use; and
when you take up an article put down some
weeks since it will be found to have its old pow

front and back. Twist the body as far around to
the right as you can, and slowly back to posi-
ton. This movement should also be repeated to
the lett. These exercises should be taken every
morning upon rising and kept up for fifteen min
utes.
Let me give you word of advice right here
In your desire to be graceful, do not make the
mistake OF adopting the gait that happens for
the moment to be a popular fad, because the
mode OF locomotion which was pleasing in the
woman who made it the rage among her sisters
may and probably will have the effect of rem
dering you perfectly ridiculous, So beware.
GRACE IN REPosE
The hardest thing TO attain is grace in repose.
You can take various exercises that will enable
you to acquire a graceful walk, but the attain
ment of grace while in repose depends upon the
extent to which you have your nervous system

back, halr OF constantly changing your position,
Of course you cannot expect to be graceful
DO not think too much about a graceful posi.
ton, because ii you do the chances are you will
not hit upon one. The chances are that you will
strive so hard to be graceful that you will over,
shoot the mark, and only succeed in making ev.
erybody around you uncomfortable.
When you sit down, do not sit up stiff and
straight as il you had hard board behind Won
which would not permit you TO be comfortable
On the other hand, however, do not loll in your
chair as if you had no backbone.

rect form of the foot. Few are brave enough to
adopt heelless shoes and boots and broad toes,
but there is a happy medium, and in the juste
milieu is wisdom in most things in life, The very
formation of our bodies shows we were intended
to take active exercise, and to do so without over
fatigue is duty which all who study department
should in no wise neglect.

two gained, beauty does not so much matter
Ihe thing most necessary, as you will all agree,
is graceful walk. You have probably sat up
nights envying some woman of your acquaintance
because OF her graceful walk, and wondering how
you could acquire it yourself. But the question
is, did you analyze her walk, in order to find out
just why it was graceful? The chances are that
you did not
II you had analyzed it, you would, in all proba-
blhty, have discovered that it consisted in Gid
ing movement, in which most of the action de-
pended upon the thighs. The knees were relaxed,
so that the feet could swing from them easily.
Moreover, you would have noticed that she
did not bring her weight down heavily with each
step upon her heels but that she threw her
weight forward each time upon the balls of the
feet. Each step was slightly greater than the
length OF her feet, and certainly her steps were
not of the short ierky, choppy kind so often seen
nowadays. At each step the feet were lifted but
slightly from the ground
You would also have noticed that her walk
was quiet and composed, Just as you would ex.
pect the eountenanee of woman of perfect
breeding to be. Breeding is every bit as evident
from the gait as il is from the facial expres.
