OF such husband.
And then he spoke-a minute sooner

For the FIRST time she realized tho

pleas of this giant, she had burned her
bridges behind her-ln her groundless
apprehension that she might make a

NEW PHYSICAL TRAINING.
Y. NJ. c. A. to Start Course Aimed
mt Nervousness.

A new system of physical culture was
Installed yesterday in the boys depart
ment of the Y. NJ. c. A, by Gordon
Law, physical director of the depart
ment. The new system is designed 20
prevent nervousness by Strengthening the
spinal column and the nerve processes
radiating from it,
Nervousness is the typical American
ailment," said Gordon Law, physical
director of the department, yesterday, in
explaining his new system. Now, IL
nervousness is to be checked in the COM
ing generation, we must start with the
children. which is the reason that 1 have
formulated these exercises for use in the
Y. NJ. C. A. boys department.
The exercises are all aimed at build
ing up the spinal column and the muscles
of the neck, for the reason that these
parts Of the body include the largest
part of the fundamental nervous tracts.
If we keep the spinal column and neck
in good shape, nervousness will prac-
tically disappear"
Mr.. Law said that he would be prepar-
ed to announce the system of exercise
in a few days. In general, he sid, j;
aimed at the strengthening of the
vertebrae with the muscles involved, as
well as providing a natural sort of gentle
ma SSage.
