BEST EXERCISE FOR WOMEN
Popularity Of Fencing Justified In Re-
suits That Follow Its Persistent
Practice.

Fencing is always popular with
women who have the leisure and the
opportunity to go through with the
required training. and lately 1t has be-
come even more the fashion with
women prominent In society. Even
during the summer. while they we're
away at their country or seaside
homes. many women kept up their
fencing lessons. having the instruc-
tor come TO their homes for the pur-
pose.
All experts in physical training rate
fencing as the best possible means Of
exercise for women. 1t ranks with
swimming and rowing in that 1t gives
all the development needed without
making the muscles too heavy, as do
some of the other sports. For the
woman of today who longs above
everything else to be slender and sup
pie, It is the ideal exercise. Those
women who are so faithful to their
fencing lessons have discovered that
brisk half hour with the foils Is
more effective in keeping their hs-
ures girlishly 1.-the and slender than
half day spent at heavier and less
graceful forms of exercise.

Deacon Wood. polishing his glasses.
Yes said his wife. "she always
wanted one clear across the front OF

The deacon looled at his paper

marked:

USE OF MOURNING BORDERS
There Are Few Set Rules, But lndi-
sldual raste Practically De-
cldes the Question.

The average person chooses her
mourning borders by individual taste
rather than by rule and rarely
changes the width until second mourn
Ing.
Good taste avoids the haunting OF
grief and rarely countenances a bor>
der wider than a quarter OF an inch,
even for widow Even this is a trifie
wide; three-sixteenths of an inch is
a better width for widows. parents
or children. and an eight OF an inch
for sister or brother.
The paper used Is dead white linen
OF plain weave and lusterless. 1t Is
bad form to have a mourning border
on striped or fancy paper. even
though the color Is kept white. Where
a transparent paper Is liked. as for
foreign correspondence or to save
postage. besides the border there Is
a separate lining of black tissue pa

Addresses and monograms are
often stamped In unrelieved black.
Some persons prefer them embossed

We are so positive that we can re-

We think that 1t is worse than use

DO much harm. They may cause a re-

and make constipation more chronic.
Constipation IS often accompanied
and may b. caused by weakness of

strengthen those parts and restore
them to healthier activity.
