alliterative statement of an actual truth although a truth lruth that needs qualification and explanation tion I have hac told you my iy opinion about the formal breathing exercises that the are a bore and an Ineffectual ineffectual bore It H. remains a fact tact that most persons If persons If we except those who lIal dally daily occupy themselves with Ith sevel e emanual manual labor labor lio Jo not know how to breathe This is an utterly absurd state of ot affairs when we stop to think that all ahi the great human processes breathIng breathIng breathIng breath- breath Ing is the most essential one Men Ien have lavo been known to live IIvo without eating for man many days at a time They ha have 0 existed for tor many hours at a stretch without drinking and for fur other lon long periods of or hours wIthout without without with wIth- out sleeping The They have managed to stifle title the human instincts self preservation for reproduction for companionship But when breath stops so o does the life of oC tho the human being Deep Breathing Should Be Made an Unconscious Habit Nevertheless Xe we are so stingy with ourselves In this matter of ot breathing Free as all all' air is a common expression yet et we seem to grudge our bodies the tho theair theair air the they actually need While Whilo carrying carrying carrying car car- on out our ordinary pursuits wo we breathe just as little as we can help and then when the emergency ap ap- ap pears perhaps pears perhaps In the form of a street streetcar car for tor which wo we m must st sprint sprint wo wo purl puff and pant and are conscious of an ill defined sense sensa of ot Irritation and in- in Jury I That is the condition which the ad advocates advocates ad- ad advocates I of ot deep breathing exercises tried to remedy a a. few tew years ago with an extensive propaganda But it seems to me that they y went wont at the problem in the wrong wa way They made deep breathing a a fad tad with many persons a habit with only a n. few Standing in front of ot an open window window win win- dow for tor ten minutes minute's every ery morning and end filling JlIng the lungs with Ith fresh tresh air is III all aU right as far as it goes but it doesn't doe go far There are 1430 other minutes in lit each day of ot four ty our ntY hur hours The way you OU breathe during dur dur- ing those minutes is the big factor In determining your OUr health strength and size For tho the way you YOli breathe has more to do with the pounds you weigh weight than you OU fancy one Perhaps you mil may re rem remember re- re m member that In our first lesson when I w was s lvin you oU the tho causes of ot the tho disease of obesity I said that in a certain number of or Instances it was due to atrophy of the thyroid gland which actually prevents the persons so afflicted rota breathing properly Many n I many stout persons who have not this excuse are aie shallow breathers They could breathe properly but hut they wont won't wont won't-or or dont lont Fat Is carbon and like wood or other carbon products can be burned up UI with rith comparative case ase The Tire way to burn up the surplus fat Cat of ot the bOd body Is to 10 give it more oxygen The black black- mith applies what that is really the same principle when he forces air from the bellows upon his forge fire to make it burn better Such exercises as I have recommended recommended recommended mended to you in the past and as aa I Ishall Ishall Ishall shall present to you in the future to together together together to- to gether with most athletic

Now ow do you begin to understand wh why it is particularly Important for tor Lh the person who withes wishes to reduce to acquire the hibit of ot deep breathing The train of or logic is so 50 simple that cyer every Inz lazy breather should be able to follow tollow it What Is the right way to breathe In tho the first place always inhale and exhale through h the tire nose Tho The only exceptions to this rul rule allowed by one of ot the most famous physical cul cul- cul- cul ture turo teachers are for the sports of ot swimming and sprinting He says it rny i-rny be to breath breith through the mouth and exhale ale under water through the nose and in sprinting he be admits that Inhales and exhales through the mouth Mouth Breathing Invites Congestion of the tho Lungs Lunga Generally speaking however mouth breathing is a n. detestable practice Mouths of ot human beings were made maete I for tor talking and eating and some lome poets say some Borne mouths were made for kissing kiss kiss- ing inS But noses were made for tor breathing The nose will wUl remove tho the dust and chill from the tho Inhaled air all before it strikes the lungs The he mouth will wUl do neither of ot these things The person who goes suddenly from froma a warm place into a cold one and amI ignorantly or carelessly s 1 br breathes t dL p i t 1 z 4 I i y j pt p t j hw n C I through th the mouth renders

ot the exhaled air the inhalation of ot cold cod air airis Is not even un unpleasant un- un pleasant f I There were man many more mouth breathers In the last generation than there will wUl bo be In the one that Is now growing up The rhe medical discovery of adenoids the growth in the upper part of ot the nose that prevents the air from passing free freely through ex explains explains ex- ex plains much mouth breathing As you probably know the operation for removing adenoids if It performed on a small child is probably the tho simplest least cast dangerous operation in all surse sur sur- se gery The Tho medical inspectors in the New Nework NewYork e York ork public schools are re on on the watch for tor or mouth breathers and frequently recommend the adenoids operations A brighter healthier happier boy or orgill girl gill develops after it ft it In the cas cases s where hrire it Is needed But with many persons not nol even this his slight surgical treatment is needed needed needed need need- ed to induce nose breathing The Tho wrong respiratory method Is 18 merel merely a bad habit to be corr corrected by determination determination deter deter- and vigilance Not even when you are arc asleep should you breathe through your our mouth mouth Its its it's one cl cause of th that t dark brown taste in the morning If It you OU fear tear that you ou are re- re axing into
