This is a big consolation to the club

pretty good proof that, though the

tramps of genius seem to beat it, for
the effete east as soon as they have
found out their ability to keep head
above water. He was on The Call staff
when engaged by a New York paper to
draw engines. Through a slip of the
pencil he drew a beautiful girl, which
sketch fell beneath the appreciative
notice Of a teacher in one of the art
schools. The latter gave such telling
vent to his enthusiasm that Fisher for
sock his salaried engines and betook
himself to capricious pretty girls, with
the usual result of artistic satisfaction,
coupled with a shekel-less purse. Soon,
as all the world knows. the American
girl saw herself evoluted from a

Another good action to indulge in
while occupying this position is, with
your two hands strongly clenched,
press upon the abdomen firmly, causing
the subjacent parts to yield to the
pressure. This action may be contin-
ued for several minutes over the
whole region of the abdomen. This
action excites the muscular contrac-
tility Of the tube.
Another action having the same ef-
feet as the above is; With the pres
sure of the hands, follow the course of
the colon, beginning low upon the
right side of the abdomen, passing
around beneath the stomach, and ter
minating on the side opposite. This

ment with the pressure exercise under
the short ribs. The ends of the fingers
are applied from below, and strong
pressure made with q tremulous mo-
ton. This exercise excites muscular
and nervous action in the organs

rhe second exercise is one taken
while occupying a kneeling position.
The arms are in an angle position
elbow bent. while the upper arm is
near the side parallel with the body.
The knees are wide apart, and the
trunk leaning back from the perpen-

The. arms are slowly stretched up

body. Retain this position for short
time-then allow them to slowly re-
turn TO the commencing position.
Repeat this action ten or twelve
times, using care that the sfms are
stretched so that they ere exactly in
line with the reclining trunk.
This exercise may be varied, when
the arms are stretched, by permitting
the trunk TO lean as far back as posi-.

Various causes can be attributed to
the stomach and abdominal disorders
which are so prevalent to-day. II can
safely be said that one of the greatest
is ill-fitting corsets and tight lacing,
causing displacement of the various
organs and not permitting them to
grow as nature intended them to. Any
woman desires shapely form, but
let her attain IL in natural way-eat
ing properly, living rightly and by sys-
tematic exercise.
How few women have proper diges-
tion? One great cause of sluggish di-
gestion is the imperfect removal, both
of waste and of residual
tnce motion of the organs is nee
essary part of their function, no res
toration of digestive power is possible

tion of this mechanical or muscular
property.
Many motions may be given to ones

the individual. etc. The following ex.
e>cises have been carefully selected.
which, If not entirely applicable for a
| given case, may prove suggestive of
some other that may act more TO the
I purpose.
The first exercise is given in a
standing position, the body slightly
! bent forward. with corsets and all
| tight-fitting clothes removed. The nc.
| tion is, the extended hands are made
to strike the frontal regions of the

If there be a point where pain is
felt, the acuon. AT each successive ex.
ercise, should for period be given TO
surrounding parts, approaching the
| tender part gradually until the pain
disappears,
The above may be continued until
the entire frontal region has been
traversed. and repeated as often as
one deems practical
A more vigorous treatment may be
given by using the doubled fist instead
OF the fiat hand in striking. However
! II is better to begin by using the open
hand.
This treatment is an unusually good
one to assist in promoting absorption
