The Right Road to Health

the first two are good for overcoming
tnsomnla, aa well a for other purpose.
EXERCISE FOR STRENGTHENING
THE DKJEeTIVB ORQAN8.
Lit flat on the back, preferably on th
floor, but the bed will do. Support th
weight of the body on the shoulders end
heels. Exercise the body end lift It up.
bringing the trunk as far away from the
ground e. possible Hold this position
a. long as you can without strain, then
relsx, snd repeat It several times.
EXERCISE FOR 'STRENGTHENING
THE SHOULDERS.
Uefjxt on the bed. Put the weight of
the body on the heed end hip, lifting up
th cheat aa high as possible while con
tracting the muscles of the beck. This
raise the shoulders several Inches from
the bed. Hold this poeltloa for a few
moments before relaxing, and then rest
before repeating K.
EXERCISE FOR DEVELOPING THE
CALF OF THE LEG.
Where tbe body generally Is undevel
oped K Is naturally useless to expect 'O'
develop the calf of the leg without un
dertaking general exercises for tbe Im
provement of tbe figure. This especial
exercise for the leg. however. Is excel
lent, end can be done at almost any
time Sit upright Place the feet to
gether snd rats the heel until only the
toes rest on the ground. Exercise the
muscles of the calf of the leg, putting a
great deal of strength Into them. Pres.
the ground with th to, then relax and
let the foot regein Its normal position.
Repeat the exercise for five minutes at
a time. This exercise, like many other.
Is of no reel use unless It Is doo very
frequently. ,
Tbe exercise which I most often re
quested Is "something to reduce tbe
hips." There are many such exercises,
snd one of the beet is Just to swing the
body forward, erme hanging down, end
toeeb tbe floor with the fingers without
bending the knee. Any woman who
can do that does not need to worry about
her figure. Sbe still has a good one.
