Because of her perfect phystoal proportions, Pauline Furlong has been named the “American Venus.” She te the author of “Beauty Culture at Home,” and 4s an authority on alt questions of woman's physical well-being. She will give a course of lessons to the women readers of The Eve- ning World this summer on “How to Make Yourself Well and Strong and Preserve Your Figure.” LESSON XxI. By Pauline Furlong. Why is thinness a defect which you should try to overcome? There are two reasons. Inthe first Place, extreme thinness is a sign of bad health, or of constitutional weak- ness, at the least. In the second Place, the extremely thin woman stows old and ugly with abnormal quickness, Vitality and all-round muscular de- velopment and perfect health depend upon well-nourished tissues, The thin woman may not feel {ll—a nerv- ous, hysterical energy 1s one of her symptoms—but the fact remains that her tissues have not received and are not receiving proper replenishment from the blood. As I said the other day, she is not assimilating her food; its nourishing elements are not being utilized properly in the wonderful natural chemistry of the body. THIN WOMEN ALWAYS DANGER OF BREAKDOWN. In one sense, abnormal thinness is a more dangerous malady than abnormal fatness, because the former is more subtle, Nature fives @ warning to the stout woman by making her uncom- fortable, particularly during the hot months. The thin woman ie leas lucky. She meanders along, feeling strong enough to perform the duties that fall to her lot. She is tired most of the time, her face i she suffers from indiges- rrh and intestinal oom- plaints, But she doesn’t suspect that anything really serious is the matter with her, Then there comes some sudden call upon her strength. She is the victim of an accident or of some severe ill- ness. She must nurse for a protracted period some member of her family, or perform some other physical labor of unaccustomed magnitude, For a time her nervous energy buoys her she “lives on her nerves,” as we say, Rut sooner or Inter she suc- cumbs under the strain and, in too many Instances, fails to rally. That is because, all along, she has been using up her principal of vitality; she has no savings account in the bank of health and strength, As for the charge that thinness Im- rs a woman's beauty and makes her show age more quickly, it is un- questionably true, The woman who is thin to the point of emactation rarely or never has a healthy skin, It 1s pale, sallow and—since there is not sufficient tissue under it—loose and inclined to wrinkle. Tho first step toward overcoming extreme thinness {8 of course to build up the general health and strength, Your diet must be carefully rev and edited, as I have explained to you, To-morrow I shall print menus for the thin woman, which will be capable of modification ac- cording to the taste and pocketbook of the individual reader, But food is not the only factor to be considered in the problem of development. There is a! The time when deplenished t' io is most ly renewed and rebuilt is the period during which the body is completely relaxed in sleep, which has rightly been described as newal.” Therefore the thin woman shoule spend as much time as sho possibty can in steep. WORRY AND LACK OF SLEEP KEEP WOMEN THIN, The thin woman is usually nervous and inclined to fret and worry. One 2 of her pet habits 4s to He awake at night and tndulge in an orgy of mental disturbance about the events of the past day and those which the next day may bring forth, All L can say is “Stop it. You will never grow any stouter if you are constantly borrowing trouble. Par- ticularly you must not lie awake at night, fretting and worrying and in- viting insomnia, Drink a glass of hot | milk before you go to bed and do your very best to think only of ple ant, soothing things, Then, before you realize it, you will be asleep and the good work of gaining flesh will be under way. her rule for your me the best authorities ‘are agreed that that practice in- terferes with digestion. But swallow a glass o} water as many times a day as you feel able to do so, Water that has been kept on ice in a clean, covered receptacle Is likely to be healthier than water in which ice has been put. Why do I advise the thin woman to drink {t copiously? Because inimany instances ihe rea- clear, cool | sample| = \, i for thinness is that the body's rgans for carrying off waste are bot doing their work properly. The person who drinks a great deal of water will perspire profusely, showing that the pores of the skin, through which much waste is carried off, are “on the job.” Water drinking has an equally beneficial effect upon the intestines and kidneys, When the body's waste is not eliminated as it should be, fills the blood with im- purities and the blood, thus ham- pered, cannot perform easily ite la- bor of tissue building—iabor which the thjn person badly needs to have accomplished. MORE EXERCISE, TO: AID IN BUILDING UP THIN NECKS. There must be a certain amount of exercise, also, to keep the various physical organs functioning properly. The exercises which I give you to-day have this beneficial effect, and also strengthen the tissues of neck, chin and shoulders. The first movement is the same as the last one we tried yesterday, with- out the massage. Sitting erect in a straight-backed chair, turn your head as far over your left shoulder as pos- sible, then equally far in the opposite direction. The trunk itself should not be moved. For the other two exercises, lie flat ‘on the floor, or in bed, placing a pil- low beneath your shoulders, With your arms at your side, the middie finger just touching the carpet or sheet, throw your head as far back as possible, Then bring it as far for- | ward as you can without moving your shoulders from the pillow, This is a |splendid exercise for all the neck | muscles, so often inactive in the case | rson, |" All these exercises may be per- | formed from ten to fifty times in suc- cession. Readers of Miss Furlong's ar- ticles who are keeping measure- ment charts or otherwise follow- ing her lessons are invited to write to her, in care of The Evening World, asking any questions per- tinent to the lessons or requesting information that will aid them in following her rules for diet and exercise, ———— | —_>— Letters From Evening World | Readers Following Miss Furlong’s Lessons. | L.

(Spectal to The Evening World.) POUGHKEEPSIE, July 22.—It was about three days ago that an old lady on the river side of a parlor car com- ing into Poughkeepsie thought she saw them; it didn’t seem possible; perhaps it was a sinful dream, Dazed, she wheeled about on her husband in the next chair. His cheek was fi.t- tened agai: + tho window and his eyes were almost popping out as he strained to look back down the track. “Henry!” she said. “So I DID see them.” Henry jerked back, upright, sneaked @ look about the oar and tried hard to look innocent, “I am ashamed of you,” sald the old lady, “It is perfectly unspeakablo. You must telegraph the President of the railroad at once and have them arrested, Just teli him if it fe not stopped at once we will use the West Shore after this, They weren't chil- dren either, They were full grown men and women.

I entertained the best people in Washington. Sen- ator Willlam A.

A negro with a bloody razor in his right hand, followed by a couple of women in matda’ caps and aprons and several men and boys who made & lot of nolae but no gains, ran east through West Forty-eighth Street a few minutes before noon to-day and turned north in Fifth Avenue, The avenue was crowded and the fugitive at once became the target for the attention of hundreda, At Forty-ninth Street the negro turned west. Patrolman Solomon of the East Fifty-first Street Station disarmed him. The woman informed Solomon the negro had killed a man at No. 4 West Forty-eighth Street Other policemen went to the address and found Alfred West of No. 216 West Sixty-first Street, a young negro employed in the place, which ts a boarding house, as a butler, bleeding from gashes in his throat, face and shoulders, He was hurried to Flower Hospital, where he is dying. ‘The prisoner gave the name of Ben Gitgane of No, 216 West Fortleth Street. Mary O'Connor, a maid in the hoarding house, found Gitgane in a room on the third floor ransacking a bureau. She screamed and West ran upstairs, meeting the intruder coming down.

But all my creditors took my notes and hold them. Isn't it reason- able to suppose that they investigated my statement that I was Mrs. Flagler before they accepted my notes?” Mrs, Flagier-Johnson, or Johnson- Flagler, is a handsome, well preserved woman, apparently about sixty years old, She did not attempt to explain when asked about the fact that John Henry Johnson, who, she says, is her daughter's divorced husband, is older than herself. “My lawyer, J. Henry Newberger, of Chicago, will be here to-night,” she sald, “He will corroborate everything I say. He knows that when I sepa- rated from Henry M, Fiagler I got 250,000 in Santa Fe Railroad stock, which I turned over to Daniel Le Roy Dresser, who killed himself when he stock to me.” Friends and business associates of Mr, Dresser say he never knew or heard of Mrs. Flagler-Johnson and that she is taking advantage of tho fact that he was driven to suicide by business troubles in order to bolster up her claim to the Flagler millions. ‘The woman appeared in Washington in the spring of 1913 and leased the house at No, 1825 M Street, N.

Banker Young, Who Is Cut Off, Filed Another Will in New Jersey. ‘The last will of Mme, Lillian Nor- dica-Young, made on ‘Thursday Island, near Australia, in January, 1914, was admitted to probate to-day by Surrogate Cohalan, In this will the singer cut off her husband, well known as a banker in New York and New Jersey, with practically nothing, declaring that she had already lent him $400,000, and that was enough. If Mr. Young intends to appeal from to-day's decision of the Surrogate he may «ive notice within sixty days. ‘Thus far no intimation has been given. In the meantime Mme. Nordica’s will made at Deal, N, J., before she sailed away on a long tour, has been filed for probate in Monmouth County, N. but will await the disposition of the Thursday Island will.

Nordica- Young in the courtroom were her ai: ters, Mrs, Ione A. Walker and Mra. William F. Baldwin, both of Boston. ‘With them were William F. Baldwin and his son, Robert O. Baldwin, one of the executors of the Thursday Inland will; also Norton Baldwin and Miss Constance Baldwin, his brother and sister. Counsel for George W. Young con- tested the Thursday Island will on the ground that Mme. Nordica- Young was of unsound mind at the time she made it and was under un- due influence at the time. Mrs. Ada Baldwin, @ relative, was her travelling companion all through the voyage and was with her to the end. Attorney Weed offered in evidence: the order for a commission, issued | by the Surrogate in February, 1916, the appointment of a commission and the report of the commission, filed on May 1 of this year, This report gave the testimony of witnesses who were present when Mme.
