more muscles kept In use at the same
time, the more flexible is the body.
High kicking is the best thing in the
world for keeping the waist slight and
trim. Try a skipping movement 20
get the idea, and skip around the
room about ten times, making the step
higher each time. OF course, this
dancing movement must be systemat-
icallv kept up II results are looked fo~.
Kicking with the arm movement is
more difficult, but even more benef-
cial. because more muscles are
brought into play
Any movement with the arms mas
direct effect upon the shoulders,
rounding them out and making them
firm
But perhaps the best thing about
this combination of the arm and leg
movement is the fact that the more
frequently it is practiced the more
perfect is the distribution of weight
over the whole body, and therefore
the certainty Of always maintaining
the correct equilibrium is assured.
This Is of great Importance to the
dancer; it is one of the first steps TO
success on the long road. but think
it should be of benefit to almost every
healthy, wide-awake girl of to-day.
There are so many times when we
need poise. mainly because it is the
thing for the American girl to indulge
in all kinds of active sports.
In my next article ! will try to show
the difference between the benefit de-
rived from the ordinary ballroom
dances and the more active dance
movements, which, in their funda-
mental steps, / have outlined briefly
in this article.
And then 1t will be easier to under
stand what l mean by symmetry of
mind and body The cause of the
thing that is to be corrected must be
ascertained before the remedy can ne
decided upon, and the effect of the
treatment can only be determined aft
er systematic dance exercises

lot more than me, keep still and get
a earfull. If I don't know anything

system to play and many a guy that
plays it gets the reputation of being
a wise owl"
"Oh, knew things enough to say"
said the Manicure Lady. Il wasn't

race. but the idea was, George, that l
didn't want to be no deadly contrast
to this smooth friend of Mas. Broth

to juggle, horned in, and kept up
quite a peart conversation until he
happened to say he thought Ivanhoe
was one of the best, novels Charles
Dickens ever wrote, and when mother
corrected him in front of her friend
he grouched off to bed"
Il don't suppose slang is very
classy" admitted the Head Barber,
"but it's about the only language that
l can use and know am using it
right, so amt going to give It the
gate. guess it don't have much to
do with the size of the pay roll or the
success of 9 fellow, anyhow"

Lady. 1T amt no way to express

speech and of US human beings. Just
imagine how it would have sounded

kid, before Kid Capulet and Battling
Montague solve our puzzling deliv-
cry That wouldn't have sounded
beautiful bit, would 1t? No. George
even il slang is one OF them neces-
sary evils, like the tango and colored
wigs. we ought to tie the can to It as
often as poss under the circ. How
would a swell love song sound II II

Take me back to the garden Of

1T don't sound none too SEMI
classy admitted the Head Barber.
That's what / mean, George. And
me and Wayne has decided that we
are going to watch ourselves and
every time we catch ourselves or each

ing to say 1t over and say IT in more

Good Eating at
Low Cost.

We eat far too much meat. We eat
meat to excess under the mistaken
idea that it is necessary to nourish
our bodies, while we continually pass
up foodstuffs that (weight for weignt)
contain more nutriment and cost con-
siderably less than meat.
Take Faust Macaroni for instance.
A 1Oc package Of this macaroni con-
tains as much nutriment as four
pounds of beef, and has another big
advantage, too, in that it is much
easier digested.
And consider the many savory, ap-
petizing dishes that can be made
from Faust Macaronl. Write for free
