GOING Up and Down Stairs.

Aotn9 UP ana OoWn Stalft.
Going up and down stairs properly
ID one Of the best physical exercises.
It strengthens the heart, expands the
lungs by inducing deep breathing.
strengthens muscles of the back, shoul-
Der and abdomen. 1t promotes elias
tlcity Of the foot and leg muscles and,
above all, brings about poise Of the
body.
The correct, heaithful way to mount
stairs is as follows:
First-Place the ball Of one foot on
the step. raise the heel Of the other
foot, carrying it inward so that it is in
line with the heel Of the foot in front.
Second.-At the same time raise the
body by transferring the weight to the
ball Of the foot already IN the stair.
The relative positions of the different
parts of the body are precisely the
same as in walking on a leve! surface
head up. chest up and out, arms
hanging free from the shoulder blades.
To descend stairs the following are
the correct positions:
TifSt.- body erect. point the toe
downward. heel turned inward.
Second Touch the step, sinking
gradually. lightly upon the ball of that
foot. at the same time carrying the
weight to it by raising the heel of the
foot on the stair above. swinging the
heel inward On the toe as IA pivot. as in
mounting stairs.
Keep the heels in line all the time
Spreading the feet is not only awk
ward. but unrefined. SwAying also is
awkward and unnecessary. Practice
rising on the toes and sinking Oh the
knees. slowing rising again. 1t will
help make the ankle muscles flexible
80 that the little pivot movement can
be done freely.

A kissable girl always pretends that
she doesn't want to.
Some people seem to think philan
thropist merely an easy mark.
Often womans silence In more
significant than a mans words.
When a woman considers her hus-
band necessary evil marriage is a
failure.
What the wiaest of us say is of far
less Importance than what we leave
unsaid.
If marriage is a lottery, that may
explain why the law interferes in so
many cases.
OF course, 1t is less trouble to make
enemies than friends-but friends are
worth the trouble.
Occasionally the breaking Of an en-
gagement enables both parties to live
happily ever after.
Faith may be all right in its place.
but 1t may not enable a man to de-
liver the goods on schedule time.
Many a girls matrimonial chances
would bump the bumps If young
man could see her as her mother
