N the preceding articles of this series | Sarah Fuller has been telling how she restored herself to health and beauty through the means of stmplo home exercise and general hygienic training, which I was able to teach her.

She had a slight, well-tormed figure, but it lacked ‘the pretty roundness of symmetrical devel- opment. voice, but the high notes she was anx- fous to sustain often quavered because her breathing was irregular. She was a graceful dancer, but some of her prettiest poses were very uncom- fortable ones, when a sudden “catahi- ness of breath” would cause her to feel the strain on an arm circling upward from the shoulder or foot balancing aintily above the floor. Miss Roth was advised to try breath- ing exercises. Some of her vocal teach- ers were well-known advocates of this theory, and frequently her singing les- sons consisted chiefly of breathing exer: clses, She was patient and persistent in all ‘her efforts. Regular breathing from the dtaphraym, Miss Roth declares, soon overcame ail tendency to “chestiness’’ and the “‘catchiness” she bed felt in her windpipe. Miss Roth is now an habit- ual deep breather, She can “hold ther high notes” without any perceptible e! fort, she can poise foot and arm in a dance without uncomfortable straining or swaying, she can place both hands near her waist lne and draw a long breath, which re-invigorates and rests any tiredness.
