A Graceful Figure.

Quite often the figure of a pretty
girl Is spoilt by STOPPING shoulders. a
contracted chest or a careless, SLOUGH
ing gait. Yet by devoting a little spare
time every day to some physical exer-
cises these evils may be overcome.
Many and various are the forms of
calisthenics. The daily s of dumb
bells will strengthen all the muscles of
the arms and chest and at the same
time promote a free circulation of the
blood.
Then there Is the expander. This is
formed of a strip of the very strong
est kind of elastic. with loops or ham
dies at each end oshold. 1t can easily
be made at home. 1t should be held In
both hands and be slowly expanded
and passed over the head. This tends
to develop the chest and strengthen
the back.
Exercises of this sort should be per-
formed regularly every day, and they
must be done steadily. slowly and
firmly.
Dress for any form of muscular ex-
ercise should be light. flexible and wool
len. No corsets should be worn, and
the bodice and underclothing must be
large enough to allow perfect freedom
of the arms.

Mirror
Avoid Nervous erimaeIna.

A great destroyer of beauty lines
in the face is the nervous twisting or
the lips and grimaces. Many women
are guilty of these when talking. They
are unbecoming habits and are the
means of developing many ugly lines
and wrinkles that prematurely age one.
Time, worry and habit are three
things that line the forehead with fur
rows and bring a sagging condition OF
the muscles, especially affecting the
muscles under the chin. When these
muscles lose their elasticity the result
is the unsightly double chin.
The reason that burrows (wrinkles)
make their appearance on the counte-
nance of an aged person is due to the
fact that the fat underlying the skin
becomes absorbed. Consequently the
cuticle loosens and becomes wrinkled.
TO remedy this condition gently mas
sage these parts with good skin food;
then before retiring adjust a forehead
band which has been Amounted with
skin food. This should be worn each
night.
Sagging cheek muscles may be
strengthened and contracted with mas
sage and an a~stringent lotion and, as
has peer said before, tightly bound up
overnight with a band-either muslin
or rubber.
In regard to premature wrinkles
caused by worry or habits, they should
not only be treated with massage, as
previously directed, but n should
learn to control the muscles to obtain
a calm and pleasant expression. which
is a great aid to beauty.

To preserve the hands in good con.

whenever possible, be washed in tepid
water. and if this is softened by a

Be sure to use a soap Of good quail.
ty. and when drying the hands take
the precaution of rubbing each finger
separately.
If the hands are rubbed over once a
day with a slice of lemon and a little
cold cream or If mutton tallow is rub
bed into them thoroughly before going
to bed at night there will be little dan
ger of the skin becoming chapped or
rough.
Chapped hands are almost always
caused by insufficient drying after
washing or perhaps the water was icy
cold and very hard or used too hot,
Both extremes are bad for the skin.

No matter how well she is dressed. a

Every time the rag man comes
around a boy always looks longingly at
the garb mother is wearing around the
kitchen.
When mother. gets chummy with q
new neighbor woman she will take the
neighbor woman upstairs and show
her the family jewels. These consist
of mothers marriage certificate, some
clippings from the papers about the
marriage and some old pictures. And
mother will show the neighbor a pic
ture of father before they were mar
ried and ask IL he wasn't a handsome
man. And mother will get reminiscent
and will tell what a grand nan father
is. And mother will take up the entire
afternoon telling how. nicely she and
father get along and that they never
have a cross word. And then father
will get home and discover that the
supper table isn't set yet. and father
will break up the hall rack and throw
1t at the piano and russ mother in ev-

Once in awhile the girl who can't

who can't make his thirst behave.
There are only a few sure things In
the world. And one of them is that a
fat woman knows that she is NOT get
ting fatter.
When some men are going to church
with their wives you would imagine
that they were being taken to jail by
the sheriff.
A little monkey faced baby is always
the perfect image Of a wealthy uncle,
no matter how handsome said uncle
may be.
The smokeless nuisance is a man
who swore off tobacco on the first of

all about his sufferings.

Many a man breaks himself trying to
make both ends meet.
A man would rather have his wife

she would look thinner.
Maybe a woman would travel in dou-
