BREATHING FOR BEAUTY.
Nine \ ,rsons out of every ten live and die without using- their full lung capacity. Long-, deep breathing through the nose is the correct method. This not only warms the air before it enters the lungs, hut the tiny hairs in the nostrils keep out impurities.
This saves mueh throat trouble. Deep breathing is a natural enemy to consumption. The chest should lift with each breath. ■ The. expansion means growth and a better .figure. Deep breathing is just a habit, to be acquired after deliberate and sustained practice until it becomes natural. The results are better health, purer blood, less liability to germ attacks, a better color in the face, and brighter eyes. Beauty doctors, wiljh expensive fees, always stipulate for deep nasal breathing. It is a beauty bringer. Successful athletes, men or women, are all deep breathers. That valued "second wind" is only the unused portion of the lungs, being, under stress, brought into use.
