BELLY BREATHING BOOSTS
 YOUR CIRCULATION

YOUR CIRCULATION
 An early sign of deficient circu- lation, whether from heart weak ness or other cause, is shortnesS of breath on slight exertion. The man or woman in the thirties or forttes who gets winded or all out of breath running block should have a health examination by the family doctor to find out what is the matter.
 Chief function of circulation is to carry oxygen to the cells of the body and carry back to the lungs from the body, muscle, glandular cells 8 load of carbon dioxide to be blown of from the lungs. Breathing and circulation are inc timately related.
 Just as weakening of the heart or impairment of the circulation from other cause n1anifestS itself in shortness of breath or labored breathing on slight exertion, so shall low or ineff1cient breathing causes more or less definiency of the cir- culation. In many chronic non- disabling conditions the poor circu- lation may be considerably im- proved by the regular practice of natural, correct, belly breathing half dozen inflations three or four times a day. This applies particu- larly to conditions in which there is weakness of the heart and especial ly in angina pectoris, coronary thrombosis, dilated heart, valvular leakage, paroxysms of tachycardia Excessively rapid heart beat) and the peculiar irregularity called fibril- lation (two chambers of heart beat ing in different rhythm, the auricle perhaps 200 or 300 beats per minute, the ventricle perhaps little more rapid than normal, though not so regular).
 Natural or belly breathing aids the circulation through its effect on pressure within the abdomen and pressure within the thorax or chest cavity and the valves in the veins.
 Psychologists refer to natural (belly) breathing as having booster pump" effect on the circu- lation = that is, such breathing "sucks' blood from the veins back toward the heart where it should go, whereas if breathing is shallow the blood tends to stagnate in the veins, and if the breathing is the artificial costal or chest type, in which expansion of the chest rather than expansion or imitation of the belly is the feature, return of blood through the veins to the right side of the heart is actually iinpeded. This effect of artificial chest breathing on the circulation should not only persons with heart disease but every suffered from varicose veins, varicocele, hemor- rhoids( all three are manifestations of engorgement or stagnation in the veins).

Earrings-and that means ears - are getting more important as cos tune jewelry Is adustedj to war. With much jewelry metal now at war, outstanding jewelry houses are streamlining, cutting out some of the pre-war baubles. But not ear- rings. They're still plentiful = ard will be worn not less, but more.
 YOUR EARS SHOULD
 BE REAL ASSETS
 All of which is your cue to decide 8 few things about your ears and adorn them and beautify them &C., cordingly.
 The charm value of a lovely ear is considerable. If you were born with this asset, by all means show it off. Wear your hair away from your ears, and wear large, striking, earrings. You might want a ward robe of them, well coordinated with the colors of your hats and dresses.
 But If your ears aren't small, touchable, beautifully shaped and colored, you should do several things to take attention away from that fact. Your hairdo may help here you can, by massing hair above and behind the ears, make them seem smaller. You should avoid flashing earrings which point to the ears. Watch the movies for ideas, for Hol- lywood seems to be just discovering ears and how to enhance them.
 And be sure your beauty treat ments don't stop at the hairline. You cannot change the shape but you can alter the effect of your ears considerably by efficient care. To minimize them, try dusting them with powder about two shades dark CT than your face powder. If neces-

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Why on Relief

Why on Relief
 My doctor, having moved, now charges $5 to visit me, and being on relief we can't afford it. May I ask you how to use dextrose? I bought 8 pound Git cost 50 cents), but 1t does not tell how to use it.

 And do improve their surface, which always can be made more attractive.
 Get into the habit of placing your towel or makeup band behind in- stead of in front of your ears. Scrub ears with soap and water each time you wash your face. In addition, cleanse them with cream. And re- member them when you apply skin tonic, night cream, or any other facial skin beauty agent. These will benefit the ears just as they do the cheeks. And 8 warm, soft, healthy colored texture will make up for small flaws in the shape of the ears.
