Exercise Is
Beneficial
To Figure
Balanced Diet and
Correct Posture
Help Faults.
Modern Science Institute Photo.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

WE TALKED about various types
OF posture defects yesterday
There are few figure flaws We did
not cover.
Do you remember the debutante
SLOUGH so popular about a decade
ago? Happily, it has disappeared
gone with the affectation of bored
expression which it accompanied
But it has left in its wake much
damage to internal organs. .Conjure
up picture of fattened chest, a
sagging abdomen. curving spine,
a dropping head. When the body
is fatigued to the point of collapse
such posture Is justiflable. Yet that
is the posture once deemed the proper
thing to do" by budding debutantes.
In time, such a posture definitely i'm
pairs functional efficiency and it is
easy to see why. The lungs are not
exercised. they DO not get their fill
of oxygen, the natural position of
the internal organs is thrown out
Of alignment because the organs are
cramped. Certainly, from a beauty
standpoint, there is nothing eye
inspiring about such a droopy pic
ture
Now We come to two extremes.
One Is the very plump (and Moth
ing pleasant about it, type who
hates to move vigorously and hates
to say No" to second portions. The
old stout" story of too much food
and too little exercise. 1t isn't so
much matter of lazy bones" as
lazy flesh, settling in padded. rounded
shoulders, in heavy thighs. in over
developed upper arms This type is
not good to look at. But more i'm
portant than that-the flesh body
becomes lack-adaisical, sluggish, pep
less. The whole machine slows up
the eyes become duller the hair loses
its lustre and, all in all, it is neither
a happy nor a healthy picture.
Then there's the very scrawny type
with little flesh and what there is
usually settled in abdomen and hips.
The first step of this type should
be toward the doctors office to de-
termine the reason for the weight de-
ficiency. The first job is to get more
flesh on the bones. That done. the
matter of even distribution can follow
in due course.
Balanced diet and good posture
will do much to correct figure flaws.
But regular exercise is all-important

building until people come and live IN
it and that makes it home. 1t is the
life that goes on in house that gives
1t soul and makes it different from
a store or warehouse OF a garage.
There Is even more subtle differ
ence than that between a house and a
home, because not every house in
which people live is a real home
There are palaces that are filled with
every comfort and luxury, whose floors
are covered with rich rugs and whose
walls are hung with rare tapestries
and pictures, where the furniture was
made by craftsmen who were artists
where there is rich food on the table
and deft-handed servants to anticipate
every want, yet If in this house there
are husband and wife who quarrel
with each other and children who
! fight and wrangle, and if there Is an
atmosphere that reeks of hate, 1t is
not home. 1t Is only house.
But the humblest cottage in which
there Is love, good will, cheer and
laughter is a home. There are many
rich children who never have home,
although they spend their time going
from one to the other of their fathers
houses. And there are many poor
children who live in shacks that are
homes. Be thankful if you have a
good home instead of house.
YEAR DOROTHY DIX: Recently

AnsWer-You are quite right. Mot
erS want their daughters to MARI
and are mortified and chagrined whel
they don't. Yet oftener than not Whe
girl is spinster it is her mothe

queered her chances by being s

Or maybe mother was too ambi-
tious and DESTROYS of her daughter
making brilliant match, so she
turned the cold shoulder on all the
poor, Woodworking young chaps who
evinced an interest in Mamie. and
the millionaire never materialized.
Or perhaps mother disillusioned
Mamie by picking to pieces every
young man who came to see her and
holding him up as such a figure of
fun that it killed her budding interest
IN him. Oh. there are a thousand
ways in which a mother can. without
intending it. drive her daughters
suitors away from her.

The Bureau Of Home Economics
of the United States Department of
Agriculture has a very interesting re-
lease on Just this subject. 1t should
prove most helpful to the woman
who wants her Thanksgiving dinner
perfect, in true traditional style, and
vet not too much of strain on the
family finances. Here is what the
bureau says:
1.-THE size of turkeys is judged by
their weight. A 15-pound bird
as you buy it undrawn with head and
feet attached, will make about 20
generous servings. OF course, the in
evitable second helpings must be con-
sidered when buying for any given
number of persons.
"Well-finished young tom turkeys,
the ones most plentiful on the mar
ket, usually weigh at least IA pounds.
Hen turkeys are smaller, and the sup
ply of them is relatively more limited,
since there has been such large
demand for smaller bodied turkeys to
At modern refrigerators and smaller
family groups. Poultry scientists OF
the United States Department of Agri-
culture have undertaken to develop
strains of turkeys to meet this need.
The experiment has been going on
for about two years. The birds this
year show that the scientists are
progressing toward their goal. 1t is
probable that these 'tailored-to-order
turkeys will be available in markets
sometime in the future.
From the weight of the turkey, the
cook can figure how soon before the
meal to start her cooking She'll need
to allow about Is to 20 minutes per
pound for young bird, depending
upon her method of cooking. Here
again the weight refers to the I'M
drawn turkey as bought in the market.
AN older bird will need to be
cooked longer and somewhat differ
emily. One way to tell the age of a
turkey is to feel the breast bone. If
1t is flexible, the turkey is young.
Older turkeys have hard breast bones
and are heavier for their size than
young ones.
''Of turkeys of any given age and
weight there may be great differences
In quality. One may be stringy and
tough when cooked-the other juicy
and tender. Turkeys of good quality
are Well-fleshed and well-rounded.
They have a coating of fat under
meath the skin When this coating of
fat is lacking the turkey has a blue
look showing through the skin over
most of the body. Turkeys of good
quality are free from blemishes and
have few pinfeathers.
Most turkeys are sold undrawn
with head and feet attached. Those
that have already been drawn will
naturally cost more per pound be-
cause of the weight that has been
removed. But pound for pound of
meat they usually do not differ
greatly in price.
~TF you are buying turkey to carve
at the table, see that the breast
bone is straight. If possible, get

She shouted someone was breab

When police arrived, Mrs. Zion
check and her aunt, Miss Page
Ayres, said they heard someone
trying to force the rear door.
Last Saturday night, Mrs. Zion
check said, a mysterious intruder
entered her bedroom after forcing
the lock on the same door. He
fled when she screamed, she ex-
planned. No report Of this incident
was made to police.
Police secured the grounds and

RUSSIA GIVEN
ALL FAVORED
TRADE RIGHTS
Agreement Is Made
In Moscow

I.N.S0.-The United States
today formally extended uncondi-
tional, INSTRUMENTATION trade
treatment to the Soviet Union, and
in return the Soviet guaranteed
to purchase a minimum of $40.
100000 in products from the
United States during the next IL
months.
President Roosevelt officially
proclaimed the completion of the
agreement negotiated at Moscow
by Ambassador Joseph F. Davies
and the Soviet Commissar for For
eign Affairs Maxim Litvinoff.
ALI Concessions
It extends to the Soviet for the
first time all traffic concessions
and trade favors granted other ma
lions under the 16 reciprocal trade
agreements.
The Soviet raises its agreed
minimum Of annual purchases
from the United States from $780,.
600, 900 to $40, 100000. The Soviet
actually purchased $S7. 600 in
goods during the past year and
$36.OO0.0O0 the previous year!
The United States makes one
exception in the case of coal
imports from the U. S. S. r. A
10 cents per 100 pounds duty is
assessed now under the tariff
law on coal imported from any
country which does not pur-
chase an equal amount from the
United States.
Coal Quota
However, under the reciprocal
trade agreement with the Neither
lands, a limited amount Of coal
is allowed to enter duty free.
The Soviet Union stipulated
in the new agreement that it
must be accorded the same
privilege on 100000 tons Of coal,
an agreed maximum annual ex-
port to the United States by
January /. 1888, or she would
reserve the right to abrogate the
pact on 30 days notice.
