II yoa want the grand, sloping shoulders
ct tho Venus, which mske the waist small In
proportion, you can find no exercise equal 10
pumping water, and II you have forcs
purnp about the house reserve tho use of II
for yourself. Begin with ten minutes work,
tbs wet towel pinned tightly round the hips,
corset of and a Mother Hubbard gown On,
which IL the hest modern version of the
Greek robe possible. Wet the head well, for
the exercise win pump the blood we'll over
the body, heating the temples and spine; roll
up your sleeves, sponge and wipe the arms
dry, and so TO work moderately at first. In
ten minutes or less quit, sponge of tho mus.
ces that guiver and burn, drop into an easy
seat and rest ten or fifteen minutes, then pull
again, resting and working for an hour.
Keep this up a month and you won't know
your shoulders and arms for the eame.
Walker In his well known work on artistic
beauty says the absence Of fine arms In wo-
men Is due 70 long sleeves and want Of exer-
cle. Pumping, sweeping, spinning, throw.
Ing stones at mark and playing Quoits are
all better than tennis or rowing 70 secuse
finely modelled arms and busts.
Tho way TO get the most benefit from work
In TO time ones self and see how much can he
done In q quarter hour, half hour and 20
On till tho sweat dows, that great restorr a
the complexion and reAner Of the figure. It
carries of the grossness Of tho body end
though II is q proverb In outspoken Districts
that such n one IL "too proud to sweat y and
have heard ladies Of middle station n, sor
ciety aver that they never persp.red, as IL It
mero sign Of gentility. They never failed
TO pay the penalty In thick sallowness OF
face and adipose. The moderate. easy going
woman grows fat. The active, quSek footed
ono keeps down her flesh and shows as trim q
waist and ankle Mt IS as she had at 90. That
fatal thickening at tho back Of the neck, by
which men profess to know women past 20,
Is an unnecessary consequence. Tho woman
who uses tho shoulders freely and rapidly
viii show as fiat and fine an outline Of the
back at60 as my beautiful italian Reading
Girl, }" and there Is hardly plcasanter sight
after the roses and lily figure Of 10 than one
Of these trim, nice, wholesome Indies Of GO,
with q waist as fne as that Of her own
granddaughter. A woman who is too fine
TO work is too fine TO be fair, and she win bs
stout--the one fatal defect In q woman Of
any age.
To secure the round slenderness, which Is
far enough removed from vulgar plumpness,
care must be given 20 the nutrition of the
skin. The hot soap and water bath should
bs taken and the skin dried In warm room
by brisk rubbing with towel. Friction
with the hand should follow, and when che
skin glows to rcdness II IL 70 be snointed
from head TO foot with plenty Of pure olive
or almond Gil These are chosen as being
nearly idcutical with the competition Of
human fat and quickly assimilated. When
rubbed with oil the person should sit over q
hot air register or in q SUN lighted window
until the oil Is absorbed The skin will taks
In this way ten times the nutriment the
stomach 10 able TO manage, and the result,
In very emaciated bodies, 10 marked soft
ness, translucency, and gain in flesh. Tho
rays OF the sun. falling directly on the skin,
have tho most potent effect, increasing its
activity for the exchange Of worn out parti-
cles and deposit Of new ones-Shirley Dares
