Dance. no matter how old you are, for
this will help you to stand and walk
more gracefully. Dancing makes the
limbs elastic and sturdy, strengthens the
breathing apparatus, and the warmth of
the exercise adds vigor to all parts of
the body.
Dancing is not always confined to a
ball room. for you can practice ballet
one knee and try to kick the leg straight
out before you.
Another ballet exercise consists IN
raising the knee. pointing the toe to the
floor and allowing the lower leg to hang
free. When you are In that position
with the toe. This is a difficult bal
ancing movement. Extend the arms,
allowing the weight of the body to rest
on the right foot Curve the left leg
until it touches the back-if you can
then allow the weight of the body to
fall on the left leg, raise the right and
kick as in the first exercise.
There are a host of other ballet dance
exercises which I will give you from
time to time, but these are excellent as
a beginning.

<<N JOW If you two boys would

said Mrs. Tabby. Tommy and Teddy
obedienuy moved back and stood
against the wall. Mrs. Tabby was
cooking dinner, and Tom and Ted
playing all afternoon, and could not
wait for the dinner to be put on
the table.
Best of all they were to have
cream pie. Both kitty boys loved
cream pie, and Mrs. Tabby had
cooked with a special eye TO pleas

suggested, and play a little while.
The time will not seem half as long

The boys thought that her plan
was a good one and started TO
leave. But be careful not to get
into some mischief that will keep

Both kitty boys grinned and dart

Some Foreign Cures.

At the University Of Berlin, since as
far back as 1886. there have been num-
bers Of teachers sent out to the differ
ent cities, trained to teach those with
defective speech so that their vocal
lameness may be eradicated. Even ia
pan has done likewise, with the United
States, fat, complacent, and boastfuI, az
usual, tagging far behind.
Americans. like the rabbit who raced
with the tortoise, are always in hurry,
but never prepared. So when mother
or father drags the reluctant stam-
merer or stutterer to a doctor, the lat
ter Is expected as II by magic. with an
open sesame or some written formula,
to cast out the ingrown defect Of years
Of bad habits and heredity. Often it is
lack OF patience as much on the side
OF the doctor as on the side Of parents
that these vocal disorders go uncured.
The slow. painful. persistent finger
exercises which extend over several
fcient in the elements of practical
music. are the result of driving the
child to practice half hour each day.
Cure By Practice.
The cure of suffering and stammer-
ing Is more or less analogous to the ac-
QUESTION Of finger agility upon the
pianoforte. Teachers must be obtained.
Then the stutterer needs must be taught
to manipulate vocally each word, much
az II he walked upon glass or eggs.
The muscular manifestations of these
staccato sentences are concerned with
motor troubles in articulation, breath
ing and vocalization. Associated with
these are to be found other spasms in
neck, face. and chest muscles which
have grown out Of the original trouble
All Of the suffering or stammering
movements have q tendency to become
stereotyped. fixed habits 1t, therefore,
comes to pass that each victim is a law
unto himself. The cure of one differs
from that of the others in accordance
with the particular set Of muscles in
VOWED.
The emotion which either enhances the
affliction or more or less does away
with II also differs in different indivfdu-
ais. The excitement which accompanies
acting. public speaking. elocution Or
singing seems to sidctrack the motor
and nerve disorders of articulation,
breathing and vocaiization. Under this
stress even the worst stutterer speaks
fifty times in the hundred.
open the noodgates Of fear, rage, an
xiety. dread, jealousy, anger and shame
are not only the precursors Of stutter-
ing but the iniquitous pitchforl<s which
prud the soul of the stutterer to his
worst explosions.
Not alone the juices and poisons of
such violent emotions. but even the
moods and solemn attitudes Of those
afflicted seem to maintain a state Of
Associations, Imagination and
states Of paying attention or not must
all be investigated and carefully sifted
out before the speech can be brought into
a proper state of equilibrium. Usually
the stutterer improves IL his attention
Is diverted from his speech.
