out, alternately with right and left hand, develops arms and shoulders. Tossing it from over the head, breath ing deeply as the ball is raised and exhaling as the sphere leaves the hands, is a valuable variation. Throwing it from between the legs and backward over the head, bring other muscles into play. Another very valuable medicine ball exercise is to lie flat on the back, with legs bent. and kick the ball as it is thrown by another person. The latter may de- rive benefit by breathing deeply as he raises the ball above his head, and exhaling as he losses it toward the toes of his partner. This back ex- ercise develops the leg and abdominal muscles.
 Of course. there iz always the pos sibility Of suffering an injury in all most any form of physical activity. It is very dangerous to be alive Hap pi1y, those moIly-coddles who are al sports and exercises and who careful ly avoid anything resembling muscu- lar exertion are not likely to be long exposed to the dangers with which earthly existence is frauglht. Exer- else is a law of life, and those who evade 1t are likely to be early provided with wings. Small good they will do thelns however for they will be too lazy and fearful to attempt to fly.
 The real man will live the life of a man, and eliminating all sources of danger that may be foreseen will take his chances. And his chances are infinitely better than those of the anti-exercfse croakers
