AND EXERCISE TOO LITTLE; TELLS HOW OBESITT

LESSON XII.
EXERCISES FOR PHYSICAL CUL
TURE.
THE most convenient time for do
ing exercises is in the morning
before dressing or just before re
tiring. This does pway with the ne
cessity of disrobing during the day,
for it is obvious that the best results
cannot be obtained while wearing cor
sets or any form of heavy clothing.
The exercises I am giving first are
for all women, whether stout or unde
veloped. They limber the body, bring
Into play unused musc’es, increase
breathing capacity, tone up the
nerves and improve the general
health of the body. They will also
give grace and elasticity of move
ment.
This latter point is particularly im
portant just now when the new styles
in gowning call forth a corresponding
change in movement, walk and atti
tude. Remember that it is only the
woman whose body is in correct poise
that can stoop gracefully and that at
titudinizing, graceful and attractive
when the muscles are in perfect train
ing, becomes stiff and awkward when
the body is not responsive.
To Begin the Day.
Begin the day with the breathing
exercises given in Lesson X. Follow
with Ex. A Stretching. Stand with
face against a wall or door, chest
touching; lift arms at sides to above
bead, palms out; raise on tiptoes and
stretch the arms higher and then still
higher; drop arms at sides and heels
on floor. Repeat this not less than
ten times.
Ex. B to Limber and Strengthen
Shoulder Muscles—Lie flat on floor,
face down, feet together and arms at
side. Raise head, chest and entire
torso as high as possible, turning
head first over right shoulder and then
over left, slowly and as far as possi
ble. Feel the working of the mus
cles across the back. Repeat ten
times to right, ten times to left.
Ex. C for Balance—Raise on tip
toes, knees together, hands on hips,
head erect. Now bend the knees as
low as possible, up to tiptoes, down,
up for twenty times.
Ex. D for Correct Poise Three
times a day, at least, stand with back
against a door in such position that
the back of the head, the shoulders,
elbows, palms of the hands and heels
will touch It. This Is particularly for
growing girls. If practiced during the
"teens,” It Is doubtful If they ever
lose a good shoulder position. But
I should like all pupils beginning this
work to try It. It may be difficult for
older women to get their shoulders
sufficiently bsck, but practiced regu
larly (and this Is an exercise that can
be done with the corsets on) It will
Improve the poise and carriage of
any woman.
Wand Exercises for Children and
Grownups.
These exercises, always popular
with children and young girls who do
them easily, should not be neglected
by older women who will not find
them quite as simple. They will make
the body light and agile. Provide your
self with a light walking stick or with
a bamboo wand three to four Inches
long.
Ex. I—Hold this In a horizontal po
sition, with arms parallel and on a,
Rutland's last visit to this place.
Friends in Johnson are recipients of
invitations to the graduating exer
cises of ‘Fdank Sayle Andrews at At
lanta, Ga. Technological school. His

much mental ability.
Mrs. John Willis, of Williston, is
visiting her Parents, Mr, and Mrs.
John Sawyer.
Mrs. Tom Milford is at home from
a sad mission, the burial of her father
at Elberton, Ga.
Miss Annie Grant, of Saluda, is the
guest of her brother, H. D. Grant, on
Mims Ave.
The Mary Ann Buie chapter witli
their families and their guests, the
Children of the Confederacy, will hon
or the old soldiers and heir wives with
a picnic on Thursday, June 18 at the
country home of Mrs. Martha Ed
wards. The Daughters are very anx
ious to see all the veterans of this
community present.

ed Mrs. Albert Lott, the past week.
Mr. and Mrs. Willie Yonce are at
home from their bridal trip, domiciled
in their pretty new home on Lea St.
The friends of Mr. Wm. Toney sym
pathize with him in the loss by fire of

mingham, Ala.
Dr. and Mrs. Jas. A. Dobey will oc
cupy the residence on corne of Lee and
Addison Sts., first of July. Mr. W. L.
Mobley, the present resident, will oc
cupy the ASbell home on Mims Ave.
Mrs. Lona Ivey, with her two chil
dren, are here from Greenwood, guests
in the home of Mrs. Robt. Turner.
Prof, and Mrs. L. Cogburn, are the
guests of Mrs. Mike Clark.
Misses Lottie Bean and Antionette
Denny are at home from the Young
People’s Missionary Institute that con
vened at Black Mountain.
Mrs. Sam Brown of Vidalia, Ga., is
visiting relatives here.
Misses Maude and Gladys Sawyer,
Howard Payne were guests at the re
ception of Miss Jones at Edgefield.
Mrs. Brannon, of Landrum, has re
line with the shoulders and hands
with palms downward. Raise the
wand over the head as far back as
you can towards the waist line behind,
inhaling with the backward move
ment and exhaling when you bring
the arms forward to original position.
This not only expands the chest and
develops the shoulder and arm mus
cles, but works away accumulation of
fat between the shoulders.
Ex. 2 —Hold the wand in front of
the body with the palms out, the
right hand about a foot higher Than
the left. Now, keeping the body well
poised on the balls of the feet, swing
the wand upwards to the right, as
high as possible, and then to the left
as high as possible, and repeat ten
times. This is good for strengthening
under arm muscles and will reduce
excess flesh there.
Ex. 3 —Hold the wand horizontally,
palms in, with the arms falling full
length at the sides. Keeping the body
erect, lift the right foot, raising the
knee as high and as close to the body
as possible and step over the wand,
letting only the toes touch the floor
as the foot is lowered. Repeat this,
over and back, ten times and then
do the same exercise with the left
foot.
Obesity,
Food is either eliminated from the
system, burned up in energy, or it
serves to increase the fatty deposit
in the body. Some people burn up
every ounce of food assimilated, cases
of which wp say ‘‘they never put
on flesh.” The average woman, how
ever, towards middle age assimilates
more food than she consumes in en
ergy—in other words, she eats too
much and exercises too little.
Obesity can be traced- directly to
food consumption. Most stout people
insist that they are small eaters, al
though most of them will admit to in
dolent habits and a disinclination to
exercise. In truth, a person’s own
Idea of his food consumption 1b rare
ly correct; also the kind of food eat
en is an Important factor. The car
bonaceous foods, starches, sweets and
fats, are all fat producing, and a diet
made up largely of these tends to
produce excess flesh unless it is burn
ed up in energy. To reduce flesh,
therefore, it is necessary to do two
things; Increase the amount of exor
cise, that is, the consumption of fat
by energy, and decrease the amount
of fat-producing foods eaten.
Reduction.
Reduction is so simple and it brings
with it not only an improved appear
ance, but so much greater comfort and
well being, that It is difficult to under
stand how people will allow them
selves to be impeded in their move
ments by too much fat and see their
grace and beauty disappear in the
same way. The primary cause of
obesity being to much food, the
first step to take when threatened with
it is to eat less. No matter whether
you think you have little appetite or
not, if you are growing stout—no,mat
ter how little you eat —you Ire eat
ing too much. You are taking in more
food than the system requires or can
handle. No matter if you are a small
eater, if you wish to reduce, eat less.
It Is stated by specialists on this
subject that the deposit of one-fourth
of an ounce of fat dally will increase
the weight fifty-seven pounds in ten
years. So It is easy to see that if
you start in with this little Increase
at the age of forty, fifty will probably
find you a very stout person. It is far
easier to get rid of the excess flesh
at forty and by a Judicious diet and
system of exercising keep the weight
at the same figure than It would be
to reduce fifty-seven pounds ten years
hence. That would require really he
roic treatment.
For perfect health a varied diet is
necessary; the system needs some
starch and sugar and a considerable
amount of fat. For this reason I am
opposed to the strict system of reduc
tion that goes under the name of
"banting.” Women who undergo this
certainly reduce, but they are apt to
emerge with sallow, dry, wrinkled
skin. They look, as they are, under
nourished. The diet I recommend is
less strenuous, and to get good effects
turned home after a visit to her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Hart.
Misses Rebecca Hamilton, Winsboro,
Helen Clark, Ridge Spring, Carrie
Barr Greenwood, will be guests of
Misses Elise and Mary Lecia Mobley
during Chautauqua week.
Chautauqua week will bring many
visitors and some experimenting in
various suggested improvements will
be tested.

should be accompanied by at least
one-half hour’s daily work at epeciflo
exercises that I shall give you later
and a certain amount of walking or
vigorous outdoor work.
Madame ise’bell’s Reducing Diet.
Breakfast—One egg, cooked in any!
fashion except fried; two thin slices
of bacon; unbuttered toast, cup oil
weak tea, with milk, if desired, but nd
sugar; orange, grapefruit or apple
sauce made without sugar.
Lunch —Choose one of the following
dishes. Cold meat with green salad.
Raw oysters with a few buttered
crackers. Dry toast with baked apple,
apple sauce or any stewed fruit cook
ed with very little sugar. Any soup
made without cream eaten with toast
or crackers. An occasional glass of
buttermilk must be drunk.
Dinner—Grilled chop or steak, un
derdone roast beef and lamb, chicken,
boiled or grilled fish (except salmon
and sardines), green salad with
French dressing, and vegetable that
grows above ground, with butter omit
ted from seasoning, and cheese or
fruit for dessert. Cup of black tof
fee may be drunk after dinner. •
This diet includes a small amount
of fat and sugar and enough liquid
to aid digestion. In addition, drink
on arising a cup of hot water with
juice of one-half lemon in it and par
take freely of pure cold water between
meals. If the dinner hour is late, a
cup of weak tea, but no food, may be
taken at five o’clock. Food between
meals or before going to bed is abso
lutely forbidden.
This diet with the following exer
cises will reduce the average patient
three pounds a week. Ido not recom
mend more rapid reduction. Unless
the patient Is very strong, it may
work harm. Moreover, if reduction
is slow and steady, it is more apt to
be permanent.
Madame Ise’bell’s Reduction) Exer
cises.
Arise In time to have a free half
hour before dressing for breakfast.
Begin with the breathing exercises
outlined in Lesson X and follow by
the general exercises given In the
first part of this lesson. Then do
these three special reduction exer
cises;
R. I—Hold the arms parallel with
palms towards each other; keeping
them In this position raise them slow
ly above the head, stretching the body
as much as possible. • At the same
time raise on the balls of the feet,
keeping steady polße. When the arma
are straight above the head continue
the movement backwards as far as
possible, keeping the head between
the arms. Return to erect position
with arms straight up. Now bend
body to the left, keeping arms paral
lel and head between them, now to
right. Relax. Repeat this exercise
ten times.
R. 2—Place a rug or sheet, anything
to protect your body, on the floor. Lie
flat with arras close at aides. In this
position roll over to the right ten
times and then roll back to original
position. Repeat this ten to twenty
times.
R. 3 —Place bands on hips and bend
right knee forward, throwing left hip
upward and back. Now reverse the
position, left knee forward bent, right
hip backward thrown, and continue
changing weight from one side to the
other, at first slowly and then rapidly.
Keep the hands clasped at the back
of the head and continue this exercise
until there is a decided ache In the
leg and hip muscles.
Repeat these three exercises before
retiring. Walk at least one hour a
day. You should do from five to seven
mile* on level road. Hill climbing Is
excellent. I shall be glad to answer
any personal letters In regard to re
duction from any of my pupils if they
will send me a stamped, addressed en
velope.
In the following lesson Madam*
Ise'bell will take up the question of the
tbln women and those who seed ape*
clal reduction exercises. . .
