Proper Exercise and Carriage of

BY HARRIE COATES.

THE greatest trial to a woman
whose years are beginning to tell
is the chin. 1t is at the junction of

covering the chin are often relaxed,

unsightly to look at, and the surest
way to make one look every bit of
ones age, and more.
The young use every muscle in the
body and thus prevent any over-abun-
dance of fat from accommodating, but the
average woman of a mature age seldom
is called upon, in her occupations as
we'll as her pastimes and pleasures, to
throw up the hand and put the muscles
of the chin on a stretch, I'M as a logi-
Cal consequence these parts Of the der
NAL tissue become fabby and relaxed,
and the fat is allowed to accumulate in
folds and rolls.
The double chin should be regarded
by women of all ages n stages of life
as a danger signal, indicating hat it
IL high time to occupy oneself with
studying methods how to cure and over
come this effect-in other words, how to
reduce the chin to it's normal proper
tons.
Not only on account of the effect a
double chin has on ones appearance,
it is a highly undesirable possession,
but chiefly for the reason that it in
most instances precedes other forms Of
obesity, all of which can be overcome
without much trouble il one detect
the source of the evil in time.
If, through lack Of exercise, the mus
Giles of the chin have become relaxed.
and there is a double chin created on
account of this very lack of exercise, O.
y series of exercises should be INDUCED
in, in order to replace the natural move
ments proper only to the very young,
says the writer in the Philadelphia
Press.
First of all, you must learn to hold
your head correctly. DOM let it drop
to the one side or the other, nor allow
it to sink languidly upon the chest, as
though it's weight were too much for
YOUR delicate and frail shoulders, but
carry it correctly and proudly, as it
behooves the eat of intelligence, and
the browning glory of the entire body.

to profit by it. Never before had the

fingers so near his collar. He went.

AS he disappeared Maitland stepped
to the door, raised his revolver and
pulled the trigger twice. The shots
detonated loudly in that confined space,
and rang coincident with the clash and
clatter of shivered glass. A thin cloud
of vapor obscured the doorway, sway

and dissolved, dissipated by the en-
rance of four men who, thrusting the
door violently open. struggled into the

ence in taking their oil rubs each time
they had a hot bath.
This was not merely a tonic, nor was
1t for the rested, freshened feeling that

necessary to supply the place of the
natural secretions of oil los, by the
heat of the bath, especially a bath in

If the modern beauty keeps a small
bottle of olive oil in her bath room
closet, and rubs a little of it well into
the pores opened by the hot bath, she
will never have that dry, harsh feeling

Not only will the skin grow soft and

oil acts as a tonic to the general health.
Do not keep a large bottle of the oil

A match f1ared noiselessly and the
ishment choked in his throat as he
recognized his own features duplicated
in the face of the man whose throat
he was slowly and relentlessly con-
stricting. Anisty! He had not thought
of him or connected him with the
sounds that had thrilled and alarmed
him over the telephone wire coming out
of the void and b~lackness of night. In
deed, he had hardly thought any CO.
herent thing about the matter. The
ring of the girls mol" had startled
him, and he had somehow thought,
vaguely, that O'Hagan had surprised
her in the fiat. But more han that. d

her finger-tips. in the other Anisty's re-
volver. Their eyes met and in hers the
light OF gladness leaped and fell like a
living flame, then died, to be replaced
by a look of entreaty and prayer so

chivalry went out to her.

electric bell in O'Hagan's quarters, as
we'll as of the janitor's rich brogue

flashed upon him..

thought is was IN age before Tom got to
the top. At last they both got to the top.
and both hung on for dear life. The ele-
plant walked down to the waters edge and
stuck his trunk into the water. Then he
lifted his trunk toward the boys. This
frightened them very much, for they
thought he was going to swallow them.
But the elephant had made up his mind
to something else. And this they soon
found out, when suddenly they were
drenched with water. Then the elephant
walked out Into the water and gave the
boys another drenching. He repeated his
sport several times and then ceased. The
boys looked down to see what he was going
to do next. They then saw what was the
matter, for the elephant was sinking in
the sand. The boys. thinking it was safe
to come down. climbed down, and not stop
ping to look at the elephant, they ran with
all their might for the circus tent. They
burst into the tent and gasped out their
adventure. A party of men and boys we're
sent back to the pond, where they found
the elephant sunk three feet In the sand.
But with the aid of horses and ropes, they
pulled him out and brought him back to
the circus.
The next day Tom and Ffed each re-
ceived an envelope from the president of the
circus, and looking inside they found a
ticket for the circus and a ten-dollar bill.
They enjoyed the circus very much, and
don't believe they will ever forget their
adventure with the elephant.
