BREATHING EXERCISES.

Regular and correct exercises and their
value for the Improvement Of the figure
and the general health can scarcely be
overestimated. A few minutes exercise
performed every morning after the bath
will work wonders In the way Of develop
ing thin figure. reducing a stout one
and improving the poise and carriage
generally.
But when exercises are commenced
care should be taken not to overdo the
eXertion.
Stout people especially should refrain
from long and exhausting exercise at
the outset, which may nave a serious ef-
feet upon the heart, and therefore do far
more harm than good. 1t is a good plan
to start with two or three minutes exer-
else only. increasing the time daily till it
is possible to exercise for fifteen minutes
or longer without experiencing undue
fatigue.
The easiest but also the most impor-
tant, of all health exercises Is deep
breathing, which ought to be practiced
by every one, for it has a wonderful ef-
feet on the respiratory and digestive Or
gans. and therefore on the whole ply

Buying Mutton and Pork.

Nowhere will a young houSekeeper sho"
her ignorance more than at the butcher $.
A little knowledge goes long way IN
market, and the woman who knows what
to ask for saves 10 per cent on her meat
bill
Suppose she asks for veal. unless she
is able to specify the cut she is sure TO
be given the loin or fillet, where often
less expensive cut would serve her need.
Generally in cutting UP veal the hind
quarter is divided into loin and leg. ana
the forequarter is divided into breast,
neck and shoulder. From the hindquar-
ter comes the loin the choicest cuts for
roasts and chops; fllet, used for roasts
and outlets; chump end of loin, for roasts
and chops, hindknuckle, for stew and pot
pie.
From the forequarter comes neck, best
end for roasts stews and chops; breast
best for roasting, stews and chops; blade
bone for pot roasts and baked dishes;
foreknuck1e, used for soups and stews;
breast, brisket end used for baking, stews
and potpie; neck scrag end used Tor
stews, broth. meat pie, etc.
If you are buying pork the most gen
orally used cuts are leg, used for smoked
hams, roasts and corned pork: hind loin,
roasts. chops and baked dishes: fore loin
or ribs, used for roasts. baking and chops;
spareribs, chops. stews and roasts; shoul-
der. roasts and corned pork; brisket and
flank, used for picking in salt and for
smoked hams
Mutton-Leg. for roasts and boiling;
shoulder, for baked dishes and roasts:
loin. for roasts and chops Saddle and
double loin); chump end of loin. for roasts
and chops; rib chops. for French chops
and choice stews; breast, for roasts.

These lists should provide at least a
working vocabulary for the young house.

such little vests are worn with must be

Satin velvet and plain or fiowered taf-

blouse. and fashions a vest of net or lace
TO wear with the silk blouse. No doubt
the idea will he played up in many in

Will We Wear Full Skirts?

No one can tell what women in mass
will do. If they should take an idea
TO wear the harem skirts of Paul .Poiret.
they would make it the fashion tomor-
row. say the world what it may. But.
in the present state of affairs their in
dication is that neither of these full skirts
will be popular. but that women will de-
eide upon the Grecian skirt which Poiret
introduced in Aphrodite.
1t is comfortable and more becoming
than either of the other styles. One
sees great number of such skirts here
with jersey waists and broad sashes
around the hips. These skirts are not
extra short. One notices tendency for
covering the ankles and cutting skirts
off at the insteps After all. the ex-
tremely short skirt is merely an evolu-
ton made necessary by women not be
ing able to walk in narrow skirts. and
with the straight pleating hanging from
waist to instep one has entire freedom at
all times

An old rhyme apprising people OF
its efiicaciousness reads thus:
"On Easter eve the fire all is quenched
in every place,
And fresh againe from out the flint
is fetched with solemn grace;
The priest doth this against great
dangers many one.
A brande whereof doth every man
with greedie minde take home,
That, when the fearful storme appears
or tempest black arise,
BY lighting this he safe may be
from stroke or hurtful skies"
The person spying a lamb on Eas-
ter morning is fortunate. especially
If the animals head faces the house,
for good luck will certainly follow
him. If the lamb is lying down or
looking in another direction, however,
the fortune will not be altogether
good. This belief comes from a we'll
established ancient idea that the devil
might inhabit any form save that of
a lamb or a dove
There is one other prophecy which
since ancient times no woman of in
telligence would ever entertain the
thought of disregarding This is the
talismanic virtue vested in new
clothes. Throughout all times there
have been grave scholars who have
ascribed the universal custom of ap-
pearing at church and promenading
the streets Easter Sunday in new at
tire to the vanity of women. With

men believe since there happens to
be the best of reasons for her insist

She may not have taken you into
the inner recess of her heart and |
barred her reason, but she knows it |
well herself, and If you are the devot-
ed husband and father that you should

question. For the peace of your mind,

you, before bringing such
