S deep breathing exercises are monotonous, it is considered &® good plan to indulge each day in some form of exercise, espe- cially those prac- tised in the fresh air, which will in- duce and compel deep and regular breathing. An- other suggestion for deep breath- ing Is to take at Pauurem ruaiow® least one hundred imhalations, aiming to reach the most Femote corner of the lungs, each day, @uring your walk. Few women realize ow important deep breathing prac-, tiee is to the complexion; it clears the Dloed and stimulates ft to action. To-day's ¢xerciae is another arm- awinging one for developing the breast and widening nurrow shoul- ders. TO-DAY’S EXERCISE, TAND wth the feet about eight- een inches apart and lower the fs body slightly forward at the Waist line. Swing the arms so that they cross each other in the front, Teaching the right hand far out to the left #ide and the left hand far out to the right side. Bring the arms back with a sharp swing as far out to each side as you can comfortably reach, Repeat swingings about twenty-five times if they do not tire you. A variation of this exercise is per- formed by bringing the arms straight out to the front until the dumbbelis touch, and then swinging the arms cwith a swift movement until the “dumbbells meet in the back. This is “positively one of the most efvective movements for broadening the nar- row chest and shoulders. F SUGGESTED MENU. WO glasses of water breakfast.

So they must have torn ct Arnold's picture from the wall when he had “sold out,” Dan had sald nothing when Billy Brice had told his name so quiet! But the shock of it had come acros the chauffeur’s face like a black shadow for a second, then vanished, He turned his eyes toward the wall, then he turned on his heel. “Half-past nine, she said,” he ree minded, over his shoulder, and he was ene Billy Brice had walked up the road and back to fight the thoughts and fill in the time.

Then Edith Rhoades stood before him, at the other side of the screen door. “Come in!" she invited, and her voice, like his had been an hour be- fore, was very quiet. 6 obeyed, and followed her down the wide hall, his ragged hat in his hand, the nails of his cheap, worn- down shoes leaving their marka on the polished floor, In the library, he saw & man in the semi-darkness of @ corner, It was Rhoades, and Billy Brice's. whole b: stiffened “Take a chair, Mr. Brice,” the girt rave i on, as she stood at the other side wide table, “May I stand asked, and the request was very earnest.

Billy said bitterly, He looked down at his ragged hat, the gaping hole in a shoe, ‘You didn't get ten thousand for throwing that Santa Monica race, Mr. Brice, did you?" ‘The girl leaned for- a’ across the table and asked the host. breathlessly, her eyes his face.

She spoke to Billy again, "Bo you think it is quite fair to adopt this attitude when you have hurt us 60?" she asked, Hurt you?" gasped Billy, and he stared disbelievingly i It was her turn to look urprised, “Don't you know that the anta Monica race has been more than a boomerang?

He nodded and walked out, with never a glance at the president of the Rhoades Automobile Company. He went out the front door, down the porch, and around to the garage, with his eyes storing down the ground before him. Inside, Dan was washing one of the cars, Ag Billy entered, he looked up. “Whatcha doin’ here?” he growled, Billy didn’t resent the tone; he was past the stage of resenting anything. “Miss Edith told me to walt here for a few minutes,” he sald dully. “On!” He knew that the chauffeur was staring, but he didn’t care.
