the correct method of making the most natural of all moveMONTS.

If walking is to be effective ES an exercise for the improvement of the figure, it is important that the movements should be correct-.. ly made or the result may be exactly • opposite to the one desired.

The body should be erect, the head beld up without being thrown back, the shoulders open, and the arms swinging treely at the Įsiden.

The movement of the leg should be a free swing from the hip with the leg very slightly bent at the knee and straightened to its full- extent as the heel tounhas the ground. The heel of one foot should touch the ground as the toe of the other leaves it.

The feat should not, as is com- maonly, supposed, be turned out. This habit entails a waste of energy by the loss of an inch or so in every stride taken, and throws an unnecessary strain on the knee and the leg muscles, be- cause they are twisted out of their natural position. The feet should be as nearly as possible straight, and a good walker will have no difficulty in walking along a plank twelve inches wide. For the summer porch are tea Breathing is important.
