tuucli later, and not unfreqiu-ntlv 

 do not appear at all. As a rale 

 the rtvera.ue -age for attackiiijj 

 case of irrepnlarity is about ten, 

 but no one without professional 

 trainincc can sav exactly at what 

 time the proper steps should be 

 taken. If the pcnnanent teeth are 

 nejjlected they may not only L'^row 

 permanently out of the proper di- 

 rection but sometimes one may be 

 crowded out of its place and i\p- 

 l>ear behind another, producinj^ 

 what is commonly called 'a double 

 row.' This is especially true with 

 little ^i^^s, for the beauty of a 

 ^ oun? woman is often marred 

 most materially by irreg^ular or 

 crowded teeth, for which the mo- 

 ther or father are alone to blatne." 



♦ 



Exercise to improve the 

 Figure. 



A judicious system of home gym- 

 nastics, faithfully followed, will cor- 

 rect round shoulders, flat chests, and 

 stooping- gait. Among the best move- 

 ments to accomplish this purpose are 

 the following: — Stand perfectly erect 

 with the heels together, inflating the 

 lungs, drawing- in the breath very 

 slowly and expelling it in the same 

 way. This should be repeated eight 

 or ten times. Then bring the arms 

 forward at full length, with the palms 

 of the hands together, atid throw 

 them vigorously backward until the 

 backs touch. Repeat this motion 75 

 or 100 times. Then put the arms 

 down with the hands close to the 

 sides, the thumbs pointing forward. 

 ..ow raise the arms straight up till 

 the backs meet above the head. 

 Next bring them down again until 

 the palms again rest against the 

 thighs. For the next movement the 

 arms must be extended to the utmost 

 above the head, with the palms point- 

 ing forward; now lean gradually for- 

 ward, without bending the knees, 

 until you touch the ground in front 

 of your toes with the finger tips. 

 Then slowly recover your former 

 position, and repeat this movement 

 ad libitum. These three simple move- 

 ments vigorously executed for half 

 an hour each day will have a wonder- 

 ful influence upon the health. They 

 will also considerably increase the 

 size of the bust and arms, and give 

 agility and grace to the figure. 



Hints to the Housewife. 



It will save you considerable 

 trouble and annoyance if you sec 

 that— 



The dish towels and glass linen 

 are scalded each day and tho- 

 rou<>'hlv washed and ironed each 

 w<.'ek and dried in the open air. 



Cupboards and storerooms are 

 overhaided at least once a month. 



Money spent should be accounted 

 for m a book kept for that pur- 

 pose. 



All dusters are hem-med and re- 

 jl^ularly washed. 



The draughts are checked in the 

 kitchen range as soon as the 

 meals are prepared, to reduce the 

 fuel bill.

 daily, and the clothes placed where 

 the fresh air can reach them.

" What subject have you taken 

 for your address at the Civic 

 Club ? " " Woman's moral obliga- 

 tions as a citi/en." "What a love- 

 ly su])ject. And what are you go- 

 ing to wear ? " " That new gown 

 I brought home with me from 

 Paris. And just think, I had it 

 so cleverly packed in with my old 

 clothes that the custom-house in- 

 spector never discovered it was 

 there." — Baltimore American.

 years with very good results."
