To Keep From Losing Breath.

Where respiration is rhythaicai
there is no loss of breath In walking
fast. running uphill or going upstairs
The method af preventing breathless-
ness consists in maintaining the
rhythm and the speed OF respiration.
When the breathing is rhythmic the
breathing keeps pace with the step
The outbreathing must be twice the
length Of the lnbreathing aud not more
than eighteen or twenty complete
breath circuits must be made per min
ute.--Harper's Weekly.

Evolution OF ChuzzIewIt.

The selection OF a title was always
one Of Dickens first anxieties when
he was beginning new book. The
now familiar name OF Chuzzlewit went
through curious process of evolu-

Sweezleback, then Sweezleway. None
Of these would do. The Sweezle then
became Chuzzle, and there was a new
series OF Chuzzletoe, Cnuzzleboy, Chuz-
