Physical Culture Lesson Number Two By C. F Winder

According to the United States
census Of 1900. consumption and
pneumonia caused a total OF 300. 900
deaths out Of 1,039.094 These figures
are not guesses They are facts.
Why? I'll tell you why.
Because the average man or woman
is careless Of his or her physical con-
dition. They know that proper exer-
else is good. but they do not take the
time each day to keep themselves ply
socially At. They want their exercise
put up in a bottle or some other con-

Breathing is the vital force OF life
II Is possible TO go without food for
weeks, without water for days, but
to go without air for a few seconds
even, means certain death. So that,
If your lung supply is deficient in any
way, your body will slowly starve
and your blood become poisoned.
BREATHING.-You will be amply
repaid If you will devote a certain
amount of time daily to systematic
deep breathing Whether you are sit
ting, standing, walking or reclining,
practice diaphragmatic breathing.
When ever you think of 1t, stop. a

The effect Of deep breathing on

1t Came Through Experimenting For
HIGH Explosives.

High Explosives.
The idea is very general that smoke
less powder in being practically
smoSeless achieves its greatest end,
but as matter of fact its smokeless
feature is incidental and was an ac-
,.idcnt.
When the idea of modern long range
gums was conceived it was ut once APP
parent that the old black powder lack
cd explosive force, and thousands of
experiments were made with various
chemicals To procure IL powder of high
explosive properties. and this was ut
last accomplished.
When the new powder was tried,
much to the surprise of every one it
WAS found that practically no smoke
followed the explosion. though this
could of course have been predicted
had the question ever arisen. The
volume of smoke from black powder
is due mainly to the quantity of char
coal in the powder. an ingredient not
found i'm the smollelcss explosive.
Smokeless powder. though Il great
boon to the sportsman. is of question
