HIGH-KICKING CRAZE.
High, kicking is the latest ami most popular method of reducing' too ample proportions. The practice has been seized upon by hundreds of members of the fairer sex who are anxious to rid themselves of excessive solidity. Complaints have reached the management of a London woman’s eluli regarding the incessant knocking on the walls that was heard at 7.80 every morning. The knocking lasted for one solid hour, if was discovered that the noise was duo to the high-kick-ing propensities of a member who owns to sixty'birthdays. She was finally persuaded to conduct her self-reducing performance at a more reasonable hour in future. “J simply cannot give up my highkicking now," she wailed. “I’ve managed to hit the wall at four and a-hulf feet, and have lost two pounds in weight. Besides,, there’s an old lady of seventy-five in the club who can kick seven inches higher than I can. • I won’t be beaten bv her!”
