Felheing is recommended as the ,best
means to roach girls how to:stand,walk,
and move with greets. No exereiso can
give such freedom, for every part of
the body, is, continuell,y in action, and
the idle practice of standing about on
one; leg, 89 universal withyouhag girls,
and which is 'known to have often eaus-
ecl irreparable misehief to, the figure, is
prevented by leasing to fence. The.
game of croquet, in which there was so
much testing oh one leg, was found`
injurious. In feticing the legs are so
placed that the body rests equally on
both foot, which must be placed firmly
ou the ground, and the beautiful way
in which the left arm se'r'ves as a bat -
mace makes the fencer reeoverherposi-

Persons who have observed the new
eonstrution of engines have'repeatedly
asked the question: "What is the ob-
iect of the long; projecting fronts?"
Those sante projecting fronts are what
has changed railroad travel from a
thing of misery, to one of joy, by doing
away with dust and cinders from the
stack. By a device constructedbe-
tween the fire box and the smoke -stack
all the dust and cinders are forced into
a long projecting' front, instead of
through the mouth of the stack, to be
blown back into the car windows. The
big front is in reality the engine ash
barrel, and it has to be emptied at reg-
ular intervals. An engine which makes
a through run, say 175 miles per day
has her spark arrester cleaned out at
the conlusion of a round- trip, when
close o13 to a barrel of dirt and cinders
is removed. All engines of recent build
are equipped with the big fronts, and
those which were since their advent are
being remodeled by all first class roads.
Too high an estimate cannot be placed
on the device, and.yet there are scores
of persons who are daily enjoying its
benifits who do not really know where
the time-honored sparks and cinders
have disappeared.
