TEST EXERCISE NO. 3— TRUNK TWISTING. By Pauline Furlong. The Evening World's Authority on All Questions of Woman's Physical Well Being. “The course of reduction which I am prescribing for readers of The Evening World does involve a cer tain amount of self-denial, a certain amount of vigorous effort. It is not adapted to quitters. But nothing in this world really worth while is got without hard work, and a perfect figure 1s no exception. The woman who determines to follow the course that I offer, who backs up her | determination with perseverance and who {is willing to work, will reap a Just reward.” That is what I told you at the be- ginning of our course, Now, every day, I am receiving letters which prove that the hoped-for reward has already come to many of you. “A Constant Reader Who Wants to Get Thin” writes: “I have been trying your exercises on how to get thin, and keep well, and seem to be re- ducing all parts of my body. I am very thankful to you.” “Mrs, W. F. 8.” of Brooklyn, asking me to send her the exercises for reducing the double chin, declares: “I have en- joyed your exercises so much and have derived so much benefit from them.” y giving up potatoes and cake, by exercising in the ways you have suggested and playing tennis | have lost nine pounds in two weeks, the last three pounds in two days,” writes still another student of the cours: It is perseverance that wins the battle, you s DIRECTIONS FOR TRUNK TWISTING EXERCISES. To-day I give you the test for trun’ twisting. First, we must review briefly the variations of this admir- able exercise, In one of our earliest lessons I gave you the simplest form of it, This consists in assuming the normal standing position, with the arms stretched out as far as possible on either side at shoulder height, the palms of the hands turned down, Without moving the feet turn the upper part of the body as far as pos- | sible to the left, meanwhile taking a deep breath, Turn back to the front i | position, exhaling. With your next long breath turn the upper trunk toward the right as far as you can easily do so, then twist back to cen- tre while you exhale. No not move exercise, After that I gave you the trunk twisting with forward leaning, which, as you exhaled after turning to the left, you bent the body at the | waist over the left leg; later repeat- | ing the movement to the right. In all its forms this exercise reduces the waist, corrects stiffness of bear- d has an excellent effect on the and kidneys. In the final and most difficult modification of it you assume tho correct standing position and, without moving the feet, move the body toward the left, keeping thc head well back and the spine hoi- lowed. While the body ts still ben’ you continue the twisting movement until the trunk has described a back semicircle. As you do this you are inhaling, and you exhale when you give the body a “forward lean” over the right leg. Then repeat the move- ment from the side. Your arms are outstretched during this movement and at right angles to the body. There is one sure test by which you may tell if you are doing this exerci with complete succe: opposit Afterward, there should be no soreness, no twinges, no kink in the back, no tiredness of the mus- cles In the beginning you are ost sure to experience t sensations, beca the muscles you bring into play are so rarely Used by the average person.
