Then, after what the society papers
described as "a charming musical pro-

Clara Mudridge-Smith's English butler.
The dining room was decorated with
flowers and appropriate designs of the
holiday season. But Mrs. Mudridge-
Smith got her culture out of the popu-

Not content with flowers and ferns,
she had run streamers and frills OF
fancy crepe paper from the chandelieJ
to the center piece of the table And all
the favors and garnishments Were gay

The guests expressed their delight

How to Add
10 Years to
Your Life
By ]. A. Husik, M. d.

wv ALKING Is one of the best
"j forms Of exercise. The ad-
w vantages of walking over
other forms of calisthenics
are numerous and the health benefit to
be derived from 1t Is great. 1t Is almost
the only exercise that entails no ex-
pense. But that 1t should be of the ut
most good and result in the greatest
benefit to the welfare of the walker he
must learn to walk correctly.
1t is to be remembered that in walk.
ing for exercise two main objects are
to be held In view. The first object Is
To provide movement to the entire mus
cuiar system of the body and the second
10 anord as great an exchange of fresh
air as Is possible into and out of the
lungs. The increased activity on the
part OF the musculature of the body and
most of the vital organs creates an in
creased demand for more oxygen and
necessitates deeper respiratory move
ments. The shaking up Of the internal
organs during the exercise Of walking
is a great aid in stirring them on to in
creased activity resulting in great bene-
fit to health.
To walk right one should stand up to
his full height, throw his chest mod
erately forward and his shoulders back
ward. The man who walks with knees
bent and shoulders dropping gets little
benefit out of the exercise.
When walking for exercise. CONVERSE
tion must be avoided. For, as was
stated above. the purpose of the exer-
else Is to move the muscles and thor
oughly air ones blood instead of ones
ideas. And talking interferes with the
proper kind of breathing. Smoking. too,
should be avoided when walking.
The rate Of speed should be moderate
as in all forms of exercise the feeling
of general comfort must be maintained
and fatigue never permitted Walk,
therefore. at a comfortable rate.
The breathing should be deep and
steady. But II is against the rule of
maintaining comfort during exercise to
take such deep breaths that you feel
your blood nearly bursting out of your
head. Such breathing makes the exer-
else labored and painful. and Is soon
given up. A steady rate Of from twelve
to fifteen breaths per minute should be
maintained.
How long should one walk? There Is
only one answer to that Do not walk
long enough to become fatigued and
finally exhausted. That may be good
for the reduction Of superfiuous fat. but
will be injurious to the average man.
Five miles in two hours Is a good rate
and distance.
with these simple rules for walking
the exercise carried on with regularity
and system cannot fail to be OF great
good in maintaining health and So pro-
