WALK GRACEFULLY.

=, = = tt c' Ll . . '. = = q . .
 There is really no reason why every woman should not walk easily and gracefully, with head well poised, shoulders erect and knees but slightly flcyed. so as to give the necessary spring to the body, for the attainment of a proper car, riage IS within the reach of all al the expenditure of very little care.
 Deep breathing Is perhaps the first and most important exercise. because 1t increases the amount of oxygen in the system and so strength ems the muscles. thus tending to make the body firm and supple.
 Practice it in this way: Open the window lie at full length and take a deep breath without raising the shoulders: just lift the diaphram and expand the lungs, and then hold the breath while counting ten, this for fifteen or twenty times and increase the count each time. Grad ually fou will notice that the sense of fullness disappears, and it be comes easier to hold the breath. After you are able to do this twenty five times while lying down, then repeat it in a sitting posture, and finally you will be able to do it while standing and walking.
 Another good exercise that will help you to attain an erect bearing is the following: Raise the hands high above the head, and then swing them down in front trying to touch the floor without bending the knees. Wear very light clothing, so that the body is free when doing this Theobicct Of this exercise is to make the body straight and correct any curvature of the spine; also to make even the shoulders. The ten dons of the knees and legs will also feel the result of this exercise, and so for that reason it is well not to practice it more than ten times selves to the exercise. Another exercise for the head and bust is the old-fashioned one of walking into corner with arms outstretched as far as possible from the shoulders, and the head held high.
 Before you can do a single thing however, to make yourself walk well and gracefully you must have the proper shoes, and be very care ful always to have your heels straight ened the moment that they are the least bit crooked. If the arch of the shoe be very high the distance from the heel to the ball of the foot should be short. Wear the type of heel which gives you the most comfort.
 In order to walk correctly, when the foot is clothed with the right boot and stocking the weight should be thrown on the ball of the foot, an that will give the spring to the body and prevent landing on the heel, which causes the jar. Prac- tice going up and down stairs on the ball of the foot, and then ac- custom yourself to walk that way on level ground. It is astonishing: you will find with how little fatigue you may walk

Misfit Work in Fairbanks.

For the first time in Fairbanks and perhaps in all Alaska the mis- fit work has been taken up this year. The principal subject that is being handled, thus far, is arith- metic, although the pupils can come for special help in any subject at any time. am glad to say many are taking advantage of this help. The child that finds arithmetic hard, or does not like it, or who is be- hind. is getting individual help each day Indirectly the bright pupil is also helped, for as the slower ones are enabled to go faster he too has to put forth greater effort.
