Chew ing Is nature's own way of supply ing that much-needed stimulation at mealtimes. Hut foods of today are too soft and require too little chewing to give nature a chance. "So, If you would have a swan like neck, a chin that outrivals Helen of Troy and a mouth nnd lips too ravishing for description, chew gum. Accompany the chewing with rythmic exercises which give tone to all the umsclos of the face and neck. "Doctors and dentists have long known that chewing-gum was a real benefit to civilized people, bul only recently has the beauty nngU been recognized." To provide the toning necessary for active, responsive muscles, specialists have created a series of simple exercises The Instructions for one of them : "Take one or two sticks of gum and start to chew. After a few seconds, begin with the head at center, nnd on four counts turn It sharply to the left, hack to center, sharply to tlio right and back to center, chewing rythmlcally, once on each count." This exercise 1s said to firm the muscles of the neck nnd at the samo time to provide stimulation for the Inner muscles of the lower Snw. Other exercises In the sys tem develop the cheeks ind the muscles nround tho eyes. IN FINE TRIM FOR FINANCE CITIES IN WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.

Long-range biplanes, the new mon sters, will bo equipped with a turret slmllnr to that of a battleship. Ex perts say it entirely eliminates dif ficulties of gun operation, making marksmanship from a pinna moving at 200 miles an hour as accurate as from a fixed ba.se. A comparatively heavy gun may be used, one capable of destroying enemy aircraft with a single shot. A secret Invention tnkes care of the recoil. The turret Is placed on tho front tip of the fuselage, between two motors. The seated gunner Is called upon for almost no physical effort. All he has to do Is point the gun. and the turret mechanism does the rest, swinging around to bear upon the target.
