butter and cream, bread and butter,
/ fruit, anything containing starch or
| sugar. You are to avoid meats as much
as possible; a bit of juicy steak or a
broiled chop will not hurt you, but it
will not bring you either fat or
strength. Many very thin people are
! troubled with dyspepsia, and of course
/ if your food is not properly digested it
cannot make blood or muscle. DyS-
pepsia is a frequent cause of emacia-
ton.
When Nerves Are Irritable.
For nervous dyspepsia with a ten
! dency TO hysteria, which many ema-
! ciated women suffer from, take any
one of the well-endorsed liquid pep
! tOnoids according to directions, your
druggist will be able to supply you,
and for the digestion which causes
red face after eating or blotches on the
face. the following:
Tincture of nuX vonlica, five drops
in water before each meal.
Subgallate of bismuth, five drops af-
ter each meal.
If your food troubles you so that it
will not always remain in your stom-
ach, but produces faintness and retch
ing, eat a little at a time and eat Of
ten. Try for this form of dyspepsia
the following:

teaspoonful in a wineglass of water
half an hour before eating, three
times daily.
The digestive organs may be weak
ened by not giving them enough to do
quite as effectively as by overworkinG
them. Many very thin people are
very quick and nervous in their move
ments; they are always in haste. Try
to cultivate iaziness and eat as slowly
o- &c ha offaP-
tive of all fatteners, so you may in
dulge VI ur liking for sweets if 1t eX-
lists and If not you may try to form q
taste for food containing sugar.
After your breakfast, get ready for
a nice long walk; if it is a possible
thing let your companion be a. bright
and cheerful creature, or merry lit
tie child, for low spirits are thieves
lying in wait to ruin your Digestion
to carve lines and wrinkles in your
face and to upset my best endeavors
to make you plump and pretty. Try
to recolIect that the old saw Laugh
and grow fat was like all the other
proverbs founded on a. truism. 1t is
trite but none the less a fact that
laughter will aid digestion and aSSin-
ulation of food and induce the sort OF
fatigue we are striving for, which is
followed by a delicious hour or more
of tissue-repairing Incidence. With
your clothing loose, your feet shod IN
comfortable fiat-heeled shoes, you
start forth on your promenade which
MAY. properly be called a constitution
al. Throw your shoulders back, close
your mouth and take as long and deep
breathS as possible. Keep your mead

walk where it will not attract too
much attention, do so with your
hands clasped behind your back L
should like you for your personal sat
isfaction to get weighed and have
your chest measured before entering
upon the fat-producing regime. 1t Will
be most interesting to you to watch
your progress by the infallFble tests or
weight and measurements. DO not
walk until you are tired and nervous
and irritable; an hour to commence
with is quite sufficient. Now, If you
are a woman of leisure, take a warm
bath on your return, and after 1t
anoint the entire body with the fol-
lowing skin food:

poverished cuticle. Rub it in so you are
not left in a greasy condition.; darken
your room and lie down for a rest OF
an hour or more; sleep if you can, but
in any case rest. If you are hungry,
take a glass of milk or a bottle OF
Kumyss, which may be obtained at
the apothecary's. OF course, where one
has a family one cannot give up the
morning hours to a bath and nap.
Substitute the same directions for the
late afternoon or delay the bath and
amounting. until Just before retiring
but in this case try and get an undls-
turbed hour or two during the day for
absolute rest away from noise and
free from interruption Many very
lean women are inclined TO melan-
cholia. With such a. tendency, you
should make the strongest effort TO
cultivate cheerfulness. You will never
get round and pretty while you allow
Yourself to be low-spirited. Choose
bright. Joyous companions and avoid
every morbid association, not only
with people but with books and plays
even music if too sad is unhealthful
for YOU Let our fat, jolly sisters
steady themselves a little by contact
with the sadder side Of life. Five min

beans, potatoes, egg plant, green corn.
in preference TO cucumbers. salads,
turnips, caulifiower, etc. All farina-
ceous foods are good for you If you
find them palatable; eat freely of oat-
meal, wheat foods, rice, hominy, corn
meal and fruits with cream and
sugar.
In the afternoon you should take
some exercise-horseback riding. ten
mis-, rowing, bicycling, or more walk
ing and an hour of rest again If pos
slble. Recollect you are cultivating
idleness, you are to make duty of
being lazy. If you are in the habit OF
doing fine needle work 1 wish you
would cease for a time. I find the art
craze accountable for many
crows feet and for a nervous condi-
ton which is Incompatible with wo
mans beauty. Thin women are usu-
ally very busy and active, and to be
positively idle is a real pain to them
