KEEP YOUR CHEST UP!
"Pretty chesty," said Mr. Mann of Hongkong, quite, admiringly, as he eyed his junior clerk,
The clerk, strippod of his cost and displaying a gaily striped silk shirt, displayed also what appeared to be n perfect 45 chest.
But you nover can tell.
Many a man with a good looking-chost can't expand it more than half an inch to save his neck. With a 45 chust the clurk should be able to show a 19 unor axpansion.
The average person should have a chest expansion equal to 10 per cent. of its minimum girth.
Any person enn ousily figure it out. Just take a tapo measure, contract the chest and put the tape just holow the breast. If, for instance, the mansuromont is 38, the moqsure should show 41 when expanded.
If It doesn't, BEGIN CHEST DEVELOPMENT EXERCISES. Take such exercises, anyhow.
Any of half a hundred breathing exercisos are goud. And breathing exercisos should bo takon for the good of the abdomen and diaphragmn and circulation generally.
Don't let it get like the old chest in the garrot, dirt clogged and in docay: KEEP YOUR CREST UP!
