you, and you had better have medi- cal advice at once. Any normal adult under sixty should be able to run mile without getting "winded." If you find you have to slow down to a walk before you are past the half way post, or anywhere along the home stretch, don't take 1t too badly, for there are literally mil- lions of ginks, well, hundred thou sands anyway, who are suffering with the same trouble as yours, namely, suboxidation.
 Maybe you need 8 regular daily stint of hard breathing. Not deep breathing exercise. That's silly btsi- ness and never gets you anywhere. I mean natural hard breathing. What I'm trying to do Is sugar coat the pill. There Is only one way you can do natural hard breathing, and that Is by exercising vigoyQusly enough to induce hard breathing Incidentally, let 1t be belly breath ing, and forget you have chest.
 It doesn't matter much what form of exercise you do. It Is fine if 1t happens to be useful work of any kind which you can enjoy do- ing. But otherwise it may be walk ing, running, skating, dancing, play ing game, climbing a hill or climb ing stairs, gymnasium class drill. bicycle riding, or any calisthenic exercise you ike.
 By conscious deep breathing you can for a minute or two iphale larger amount of air, oxygen, and indeed overflll your blood with oxygen. But the inevitable cnose- uuence is a similar period of slower and more shallow breathing. 50 that in the end you are right where you were when you started.
 But natural deep breathing which is automatic and most efficient if your mind Is on something else than your breathing, is not fol- lowed by such a period of shallow or slow breathing. Moreover the cause of the natural deep breath ing, exercise, also causes the blood to utilize the increased oxygen in- take, and that means increased oxidation, increased metabolisn. and so you gain something by the regu- lar exercise period daily. You burn LID and readily eliminate or dispose of waste matter which might other wise give rise to symptoms which you may vaguely ascribe to auto intoxication. Besides 1t gives your heart increased efficie ncy and greater reserve power to serve III an emergency.
