Mrs. Mae Carter, formerly resi-
dent of Leavenworth, but for the past
two years living at Vancouver, B. c.,
was here this week looking after her
property interests. She said she con-
sidered her Leavenworth investment
safe and was highly pleased at the i'm
proved and prosperous appearance OF
the town.
Mrs. w. F. Preston, of Seattle, was
in the Echo Office one day this week.
She and her husband are the owners
OF a promising ten acre fruit ranch in
the Cascade Orchards. She has been
here for the past three weeks looking
after the care OF the place and is highly
pleased with the outlook for good
yield of apples.
Among our callers this week was Mr..
]. A. Prentiss, of Cashmere, who op-
crates an ice and cold storage ware
house in his town. He inserted an ad
vertisement in The Echo telling the
fruit growers Of the upper valley that
he is prepared to handle all kinds OF
fruit and provide cold storage when
desired, and also that he makes an ex-
cellent quality Of ice.
A serious accident was narrowly
averted Wednesday afternoon when the
car driven by Percy Adams backed
down off OF the viaduct. Those who
witnessed the dilemma expected to
see the machine back into the Wash
ington hotel which is nearly opposite
the bridge, but Mr.. Adams skillful
manipulation Of the wheel kept the car
on its feet and no damage was done.
Mrs. Adams who was sure there was to
be smashup jumped and received a
badly sprained ankle. Mrs. w. B.
Simpson with her two children who
were riding in the back seat stayed in
the car. The engine going dead and
the refusal of the brakes to work is
said to have caused the accident.

more balanced mentally.
Leg exercises have O. decided value
in the development Of the will power.
They constitute q fine cure for I'D
gets and tense states, and directly
develop poise. control and psyche
physical equilibrium.
One of the most important e1er-
cises is the forward balance. Poise
and relax the body. then extend the
right hand and right arm in
straight line in front OF the body,
slowly bend from the hip Joint, place
the right hand on the floor, then
raise the hand from the floor, raise
the left foot from the floor, stand
balanced on the right hand for one
minute. In my classes / insist upon
each movement being Immediately
reversed SO that the corresponding
nerve centres of the brain hemi-
sphere shall be equally stimulated.
These intricate balancing move
ments call for the highest degree
Of coordination between brain.
nerves and muscles. have found
them panacea for persons suffer
ing from spinal affections and for
nervous and digestive disorders.
The exercises given in this course
stimulate the brain and make it
easier for the blood to circulate
there. The cause OF balance Is gov
erned partly by the feeling OF the
muscles. partly by the sense of sight
and in part by the balancing organ
IN the ear, the centre OF equilibrium.
The balancing exercises have
tremendous value and reveal in many
instances the possible remedy for
some ataxias. paralysis and diseases
mot organic) involving the loss Of
control. Of muscles and nerves. In
less abnormal conditions they have
the greatest value IN stimulating
clear thinking and capacity for men
tai work.
Variety and variability OF move
ment Is the keynote OF this work. I
teach rhythmical body movements to
increase the power of expressing
ourselves and so restore the motor
cells of expression. This variability
Of bodily movement increases the
Potentially of brain centres. It
