tract these muscles in holding the breath back.
 Don't force the breath out. Simply let 1t escape with enough pressure to distend the cheeks and lips. Take this breathing exercise twelve times or more. The imitation of the lungs will also aid in developing the neck and chest. It is best to perform this exercise near an open window, being careful to wrap yourself in a warm robe or wear a sweater. In addition to this breathing exer- else the following specific lajbiai gym nastics should be performed, which, after all, are quite simple, and con- sume but a, little time:
 l Throw the shoulders back, fill the lungs, through the nasal passage then slowly exhale the breath, while emit ting the vowel sounds---ar e, 1, o, u--- consuming about one-quarter of the breath capacity to each sound. 1 The simple things of life are, after all, the important things.

 awake. Correct breathing influences

 beauty.

AUTUMN COLORINGS

A positive rage for all shades of yellow prevails, starting with pale ann Der and deepening to canary color, and eventually leading up to orange and flame. Then there are the lovely warm reddish browns of autumn foli- age and wallflowers, deeper wine shadings, fuchsia crimsons and pur- pIes; and a splendid range of deep, bright blues; jewel and blossom shad- ings of sapphire and delphiniums, be- ing among the most beautiful of all; while jade and malachite-greens, geranium- pink, and cerise are also having a good show in all kinds of fabrics and garments.
 Of course, too, the more sober shades are also available, beige and gray being much favored. As to navy blue, it need never fear any rivalry for, indeed, it reigns supreme, as be- ing the most universally suitable and becoming and smartly sensible wear for daytime tailor-mades and gowns.
 And this year it will, as usual, be the most general choice, for all that wine and amethyst, and wallflowers and browns are being much shown.
 All of these demand all sorts of new accessories to match, though one scheme which permits of a variety of color in the autumn outfit, without any undue extravaganza of outlay, is the choice of a soft shade of gray for shoes, stockings. gloves hat and fur, which can then all be worn most suc- cessfully with either navy blue or wine colorcd costumes and gowns.

HONEY-CAKE

Three-quarters cup of honey, half cup sugar, two and one-half cups flour, one egg, one-quarter teaspoon ginger, one teaspoon cinnamon, one half teaspoon ground cardamon seed, one-half teaspoon cloves, speclz white pepper, speck of salt, one-half teaspoon soda, one tablespoon water, two ounces blanched almonds cut in- to small pieces or chopped. Sift to- gether the flour and spices, dissolve the soda in the water, beat the egg and combine all the ingredients. Beat or knead the mixture thorough ly. Cook a small sample. If it does not rise sufficiently add a little more
 soda and honey. If it falls, add a
 little more flour. Roll out the dough to the thickness of about three fourths of an inch and bake in a hot
 oven. When the cake is done, glaze it with a thick syrup of sugar ana
 water and aiIow it to dry in a slow oven or in some other warm place. 1 While it is still warm cut it into long strips, or it may be left in one large | cake to be cut into thin slices when i served This cake will become very i hard on cooling and will not be soft enough to eat for several weeks, but will keep in good condition for an
 indefinite length of time,

ST. PETERS IN ROME.

The first services held in St. Peters at Rome, the worlds most magnificent church, took place 292 years ago to- day, when the edifce was formally consecrated.

 She Is altve!" we say.
 Wherein lies the expression of that attribute?" you ask. "Is it born tn the eyes? Is it expressed by the mouth, or is it found in the general coordination of the features?"
 Students of facial expression say that the supreme commander of the face is the mouth. Ask a great actor on what he depends most to convey to his audience the expression or the shade of the expression of his art. '"The mouth," he will reply.
 Age makes it's first attack on this vulnerable point. A beautiful woman begins to show lines about her mouth and her friends remark: Her beauty Is fading" Yet little care will pre- serve the mobility of the mouth or produce mobility of that feature. Per sistent exercises will rbanish the shadow of the years if begun in time.
 The following system of facial ex- ercises daily carried out will add ex- pression to your mouth and improve the contour of your face. These ex- ercises should be taken after your face is annointed with a good cold cream. The muscular contractions and extensions brought about by these exercises increase the capacity

Whats the Sugar
 Shortage to An Apple?

The U. s. Food Administration re- minds us that the shortage of sugar need not interfere with the preserva- ton of apples, for other sweeteners may be used or the fruit pulp or juice may be canned without sugar and sweetened a little at a time as it is used.
 Candied Apple.
 Select firm and perfect apples. Apples may be prepared by cutting in eights or in circles. Any sirup may be used, sorghum, cane corn or maple sirup or honey. Heat to the boiling point and add apple sections. Cook very slowly until almost tender. Set aside for 24 hours. then reheat and cook very slowly until tender. Cool slightly, drain completely in strainer or on fork and roll or dip in finely chopped cocoanut. Use as a confec- ton or for a dessert. The process may be completed in one day but fruit is not as candied. Other fruit may be prepared in the same way.

 The far-famed loveiness of the wo- men of France, upon analysis, ire quently falls short of accepted stand dards of beauty. Mobility of features alight with the fire of intelligence has set the stamp of approval on the beauty of the French woman. The secret of her charm is animation.
