Lie flat on back with legs over the edge of the bed, arms clasped back of the head, feet together. Stretch legs outward as far as possible, then downward, then upward, outward again. Relax between. Lie on right side and make pendulum of upper leg, forward and back in wide circle. Relax. Repeat on other side. Deep breathing should be an essential part of any diet-and-exercise routine. Breathing exercises practiced before and after meals are excellent to reduce waist and abdomen. Stand erect, hands on hips, and inhale from the very depths of you ; hold the breath a second or two, and gradually exhale with an even whistling sound. Repeat a dozen times. Again, stand erect, clasp hands over abdomen; contract the muscles of the abdomen and bend at the hips to the right six times and then to the left six times, keeping the muscles well contracted throughout the bending ; rest by taking three or four deep breaths between the exercise. Then lie on the back, and slowly raise both legs to perpendicular position, lower them slowly to the floor. Repeat four times. Of course, as I'm always saying, youthful appearance can be preserved by maintaining good posture and a springy step. An incorrect posture ages anyone. A simple routine for keeping muscles in trim is this one : Stand erect at a window ; raise arms as high as possible over head, rising on the toes and inhaling as you do so, hold the position for the count of three, then lower heels and arms and exhale quickly. Repeat. This will stir up circulation : Stand erect, arms at sides, feet together. Spring quickly to a stride position with knees slightly bent, throwing arms up over head, touching hands together. Jump back to startingposition and repeat rapidly five times in succession. With feet slightly apart, arms outstretched at sides, bend and touch the left toe with the right hand, reaching up as far as you can with the left hand ; come to erect position and repeat with left hand touching right toe, and right hand raised high. This exercise is excellent for the liver. A hot and cold shower may follow your exercise period; then give the body a brisk rub down with a Turkish towel. But don't think you can begin to exercise enthusiastically if you haven't exercised for years. Overdoing it is as bad as underdoing it. Muscles that are unused to exercise shouldn't be forced until they have had a chance to limber up gradually. So start in a small way. Some women who suddenly notice there seems to be more of them than there used to be, decide to go in for sports. They see a tennis court opening in the neighborhood and because they were pretty good at tennis when they went to school back in '21 or '19, they think they will join the tennis club. Maybe it's all right. But my advice is to see your doctor before you go in for anything so strenuous and have him examine your heart. If he says "Go ahead" — OK. We don't read with our minds, it seems to me. Every day or so someone brings me in a clipping saying that Mr. So-and-so, who is 63 years old, runs three miles a day for his health ; or Mrs. This-and-that has just celebrated her 79th birthday by swimming to Catalina or somewhere. The person who brings in the clipping thinks that because the old gentleman or the old lady still survives, that is the way to stay young. Lhree Warner Bros.
