' Too often,' when it is ( to late, we are forced to resort to materia medica. for aid in a condition brought about by improper breathing Oxygen Starvation, in fact. f Think how closely our bodies are knit together, and ' how definitely our of Us d-spend, upon the air we breathe. Our blood must be uU of oxygen.-; It is this oxygen that, filters out the irn parlties from our blood. It" .is the the same with our food. This must combine with, oxygen before It be comes of any benefit to our bodies. Therefore, if we breathe In a shal low, . indifferent manner, we cannot telp being anaemic and thin. , Deep breathing Is of inestimable value to the nerves. For instance worry, depression, fear and anger cause a sort of paralysis of the breathing muscles. Thus, acting on' the principle of prevention, deep breathing will act as an offset to any of these destructive emotions. An authority. Dr. J. O.

It is a sly, standing, joke that most widows are not averse . to slipping into the matrimonial harness a sec ond time. It puzzles young girls , to see their- widowed aunts, fat, fair and forty, with grown : -up children, -'looking around again. AUddle-aged spin sters can't understand it. The woman who has once been a happy wife always feels the need of , a strong shoulder, to lean upon, to the end of . life's, journey. j She - has ..been used; to ' wise counsel, to looking, up to one more experienced than herself. If she is the mother, of a large family, 'she feels more than ever the need of a -head to the household.- It Ut a very exceptional family wher the. members do not , clash ,. now and then.
