When say every moment exer-
cises,' am speaking literally. 1t is
q splendid thing to have set of ex-
ercises for the development Of the neck
and chin. and IL you have them. use
them.
But have you ever stopped to think
that there are certain exercises that
you can use while on the street, in
the theater, out calling, or even on
John his dinner, that will materially
improve the lower part OF your face?
These most asSuredly are:
First, please notice the picture with
this article. The pose OF the head.
the elongated neck, are certainly at
tractive. AS matter OF fact, the
young lady is simply putting In prac-
cises.
She is stretching the cords and ten
dons of her neck and incidentally culti-
waiting graceful head carriage. Added
to all this, she is using prevention as
the best cure for that bug-bear Of
womankind-a double chin.
Exercise No. is, change the posi-
ton of your head frequently. Certain
ultra -inclined women are advocating a
hideous pseudo style lately-that of
carrying the head sunk between the
shoulders and fixed there stiffly. Look
around a bit for yourself. and see how
ugly and beauty destroying fad this
is.
Try to keep your neck stretched
out to It's fullest extent. Do not hold
it. stiffly.
I do not mean by all this to crane
your head forward like turtle peer
ing out Of It's shell, or~to twist your
neck extravagantly. Extremes are ex-
tremes- and are always unsightly.
But hold your head up as though the
world meant something fine and big
to you, and act alive. Don't SLOUGH
your neck into your collar or hump
your shoulders Think about your neck
little and practice these two very
simple but useful exercises.

Notice say your friends. for the most
gracious woman in the world will not
make a good impression on strangers
unless she is well groomed and grace
full.
There is a difference between a grace
OF body and grace of mind and heart.
Grace OF body appeals to the eye Of
the stranger. grace of mind will fas-
cinate an acquaintance to you and
grace of heart or spirit will bind your
friends to you as with hoops of STEEL
1t is beauty of slow growth and
is what might be called the result Of
other graces.
To be gracious one must be kindly.
One must be interested In people. One
must be sympathetic with thoughts
and feelings of others. One cannot be
gracious If one feels at sort with ones

means graciousness in woman. Un-
self1shness and tolerance does not
mean that we must put aside all idea
of judging the world In reference to
ourselves and we must be always
ready to do a kindly action or speak
pleasant word. not for the mere sake
of a person to whom they may be di-
rected. but because We ourselves are
prompted to do good Instead of evil
and speak pleasantly instead OF I'M
