HOW TO BREATHE.

Ezrcls That Will Urine a High Cbaat. and Fa 1 Hut Breathing exercises aro invaluable If ! one would have a high chest, firm, full j bust and a waist round and supple, 1 says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Nature ! did not intend us to waddle about with j drooping chests, looking like consump- j tives ready to give up. Expand the ; lungs to the limit. Raise your chest and keep it raised. Practice the exer- ; cises as they are given here, but make It a rule to breathe correctly all the time. It Is r uite as necessary to get all the bad air out as it is to g;t plenty of fresh air in. When you rise in the morning, slip on a bath robe and bedroom slippers. Open the windows. To take breathing exercises without perfect ventilation in the room is to waste your time. Place yourself in an erect, easy position, with one foot a little forward, allowing the weight to rest upon it. Put the arms akimbo, with lingers pressing on the abdominal , muicks in front and the thumbs on the muscles on either side of the spine. Hold the head straight and the hips back, the same with the shoulders, chest high and full. Take a deep, tranquil breath, but one that will rause the chest to rise and fall fully and freely at every effort. Do this 20 times. In the act of inspiration take in as much air a.s you can hold. In the act ol' respiration give out as little ; as possible. This is particularly nccI essary in effusive breathing, which 13 excellent for chest development. Draw ; in a full breath, and sjud it forth, in i a prolonged sound of the let:-r II. j Never mind if you do sound like a I steam radiator ready to explode. You j will get a chest, and tho girl who I laughs and sneers will net. Ex?rciso ! in expulsive breathing: Draw in a full breath and emit it with a lively expulsive force, still clinging to your II sound. Do not prolong it like you do in your effusive breathing. Let it be a soit of snort, the breath being projei i:d into the air. B?fore going to sleep, give your lungs an air bath. Lie fiat on the back with no piilow un Icr the luad. Place lao arms close to the. .sid' s. then ickile and exhale slowly, allowing yourfe-f a rt 0? live 1 or ten seconds bet v. cen breath?. Do this 13 times. Th--n. with arms extended straight out across the bed. breathe slowly and deeply 15 times more.

That th" native pepu'ation of New England is not mun ainius its numerical strength is pretty well known. Hence the fact- brought out in the vital statistics of Connecticut for last year, that the native population Is fast bei:.g overwhelmed by the element of immediate foreign extraction, will surprise no one. It appears that In all sTti-r.s of the state the deaths among the native population exceeds th'o births from nat'.v p:rent ige. wh'le the burden of jro i 'i:.g a natural !ncrcr.se in tho population rests vho'ly upon people of fo" ign birth.

Prom such facto it is easy to ligure out the early displacement o' tho older native element by a population of immediate or very recent foreign origin. The Massachusetts vital statistics reveal the sam population tendencies. There are some countervailing considerations to bo taka into account when studying such itati. tics ab the above. Ilut after all j allowances are madt the fact remains that the population of l$w England. S of more, than one generation of Amerii can nativity f-eema to be losing ground.

Cajnbridse, England, bought 27 sets per 10,000 inhabitants, Oxford, 20 sets; London, 18 sets; Edinburgh, 13 sets; Glasgow, 10 sets, etc. Great Britain, as a whole, took 40,000 tots, or about 10 set per 10,000 Inhabitants. Tho United States, as a whole, took more than 400.000 sets, or nearly C8 per 10,000 inhabitants. The numbers of sets per 10,000 of the population in different American towns are: Boston, 74 seta; Chicago, 63 sets; Greater New York, C3 sets; Philadelphia, 67 set1?; San Francisco, 67 sets; Cincinnati, Cä ?ets; New Orleans, 05 sets.

On seeing the term for the lirst time one might easily imagine that a potwalloper was a species of ichthyosaurus or 'orne other reptile of a past age. It will be discovered upon inquiry, however, that the term "potwalloper" la literally one who bolls a pot, and was applied to voters in certain boroughs of England, where before the passage of the reform bill of 1832 the qualification for suffrage was to have boiled (walloped) his own pot In the parish for six months.

The Chicago newspaprs and the 1 Chicago public have become greatly excited over the mysterious society known as the White Boxers. This orga nization (in itj secret councils) has begun a war of conquest against the darker races, using the "heathen Chinee" as an object of peril to Ihe Caucasians. In their meetings the "Poxers" wear gowns and masks. Tli- ir crgan'zation came about as a result of the publication of William line's "Boxer Book." This book fust saw the light in Chicago and was freely distributed among pecplo of advanced thought. It d. mmi' 1 . 1 r 1 i O Oil

A few years later improvements and additions to the cost of $75,000 were made. Under its various ownerships the hotel entertained many eminent men. Lincoln stopped there before the civil war. President Johnson spoke from its balcony, Stephen A. Douglas was a guest within Its walls, and all the noted Indiana statesmen honored the hotel with their presence at one time or another. Another national event in which the Bates figured was the funeral of the late Vice President Hendricks, and to whose obsequies eminent men came from all parts of the country.
