 hill, or coasting down it.
 Many a fine fellow allows his
 muscles to become flabby, and finds
 himself "done-up" after slight exer- else. This is due to his own careless ness, l might say. his own laziness. He prefers to sit in the house and en- Joy artificial heat instead of going out and romping about for an hour each day, building up the fire within his own body. Each boy has within him a furnace which is kept fired by the oxygen he draws in through his lungs. If he exercises in the open he con sumes a plentiful supply of fuel. If he lolls about the house. his lungs do not exert themselves to their fullest power, and become small and weak, failing to provide the furnace with enough fuel to keep the body suffi- ciently warm.
