cuts off a large percentage of our
power.
Many business men, instead Of re-
taxing completely when they retire
at night, begin to plan and perform
their next days work mentally, an
ticipating in connection with it, all
sorts of difficulties and troubles
which never come. They go to sleep
with a troubled, anxious mind, and
wearing, grinding, 'exhausting men
tai processes go on during sleep.
The result is that instead of feeling
refreshed and vigorous in the morn
ing, they wake up tired and exhaust
ed.
These men ruin their minds for
real creative work, and destroy their
ability to grasp opportunities and
seize situations efficiently. By con-
stantly anticipating their business,
hours, they lose that mental fresh
ness and buoyancy of mind which
make a man resourceful, inventive,
and original.
Many people when they retire not
only pass in review even the minutest
detail of the work of the next day,
but also go through the experiences
of the past day in retrospect.
Doing work over and over before
one really comes to it, has a very
disastrous effect upon the disposition.
1t makes a man fractions, irritable,
touchy. His nerves become unstrung;
his mind loses its elasticity; its fresh
ness and buoyancy. The constant
strain upon his brain wears him out,
and, before middle life he is an old
man.
The man who locks his business in
his Office at night, who positively re-
fuses to talk business or think bust
ness out of business hours, accomp-
fishes very much more in a year than
thinking about IL out of business
the man who is always doing his
work over and over again mentally.

How a Family of Virginia Beauties
Acquired Their Charm

One interesting exercise, handed
down from the writings of this
Frenchman, still exists. For years
1t has been practised by a family of
Virginia beauties, known the coun-
try over for their beautiful graceful
necks. 1t is SO simple that every wo-
man should know it. Here it is:
Every morning. before the sun Is
high, the girls arise and stand before
the window of their bedroom. They
draw in deep, full breaths of the
fresh, dew-laden atmosphere. Then,
rising on the toes, another deep
breath is drawn in. This time it is
held, and while the mouth is kept
tightly closed the breath is forced
against the throat and neck muscles
while fifteen is counted. AS the heels
slowly come down to the ground, the
breath is forcibly expelled, always
through the open mouth.
To the beginner in beauty culture,
this exercise is likely to bring on an
attack of dizziness. But do not be
alarmed. It is simply because so
much oxygen is forced into the lungs
that the scores of little air-cells,
heretofore empty. are quite filed to
overlooking. This starts the blood
rushing at such a mad pace that one
is, for the time being, quite drunk
with the unusual exhilaration.
II, for two weeks, night and morn
ing. this exercise is practised ten
times in succession, you will note a
decided Improvement. Distressing
hollows will begin to take on natur-
al curves and angles to assume lines
of grace.

We have made the sort of effort that

In the way were Can't and Couldn't,

While our dearest foe, Born-weary,

Yet behind us, unrelenting, drove our
heartless master, Must,
And our feet essayed no tagging. spite

1t was there we grew the stnews for
the struggle-you and l.
Near the town of U~p-against-it, in the

We discovered possibilities undream-

Were there heartaches in that Jour-

AS along that stony highway under
whip and spur we Jared.
Bread-and-butter trudged beside US,
with a keen and ruthless goad,
That should quicken hating footsteps
if we loitered op the road.
Pride and Spunk, two comely sisters,
lured us on with myriad files
All the faster's welts yer painless as
we feasted on their smiles.
So our hearts grew strong to con-

How a Wrinkled Neck Was Made
Smooth

How a Wrinkled Neck Was Made
One well-known society girl re-
Gently came to me and begged,
please do something to give me a
pretty neck" 1t was thin, wrinkled
and yellow from wearing too tight
collars. There were lines and fur
rows which should never have been
there.
1t is now smooth and round, and
plump as a baby's, and this is how
she did it.
She began by dropping the head
over to the right shoulder against a
resisting hand. That is, as the head
presses to right, the hand which
rests just back of the temple with
stands the pressure just a trife. Not
enough, however, to prevent the head
from bending quite as far as it will
go. I consider this exercise far SUI
perior to the Delsarte head move
ments, where no pressure is exerted.
After the muscles on the right side
have been well e%nlivened, try the left
side. Then, just beneath the chin
you know there is always a little hol-
low that it seems no amount of mas
sage will fill out. But the forward
movement, when the head presses
forward against the hand which rests
just over the eyes, acts in a most
magical manner on this annoying lit
tie Disagreement.
