Modern Recipes For Attaining Good Looks
of Varied Kinds.
To Get Thin-Eat great deal of
chopped meat without any potato
in it. Drink little fluid of any kind
except strong tea Exercise great
deal without drinking and do not
eat bread, butter Or candy. Lemon
ade, acid drinks of all kinds and
saline mineral waters are excellent.
Drink glass of clear water before
breakfast.
To Get Fat.-Eat vegetables and
sleep after each meal. Go to bed at
9o'clock and lie in bed half an hour
after you wake up. Laugh a great
deal. Drink water by the pint or
the quart if you can. Drink weak
and sweet tea with plenty of milk
in it, Take cod liver oil and sweet
oils as much as you can. Eat until
you feel as if you would burst at
the table. Put plenty of butter on
your bread, and do not be afraid of
ales, layers and sweet wines. This
will guarantee gain of five pounds
month, and if you can sleep a
great deal of double that amount.
To Have a White Skin.-Eat, no
meat at all. Become a vegetarian;
they always have beautiful skins.
Once in six weeks or so eat a meal
of fresh meat. This does away with
the tendency to scurvy-that curse
of the vegetarian. Drink as much
water as you can, eat little grease
and touch no tea or coffee. Your
breakfast may be oatmeal and
oranges; your dinner fruit, nuts,
fruit tea-preferably ounce tea
graham mullins, cauliflower cro-
quettes, marmalade and dishes of
stewed vegetables. The diet is not
SO bad when you get used to it. In
large towns you will find one or two
restaurants catering to such as you.
To Become Very Muscular. Walk
a great deal, carrying something al
ways in the hands. This develops
the arms. To roll hoop might be
good if one were brave enough to
do so in public Practice lifting a
little every day. Never strain or
tire yourself. Eat meat, drink milk
and practice bending backward, for
ward and sideways every day. At
night rub about tablespoonful Of
brandy or rum into your skin on the
under and tender part of the arms.
To Have Plump Hands. Rub
them with sweet oil night and morn.
ing. Exercise them by rubbing to- !
gether. Never wear tight sleeves or
snug gloves. -r.
To Keep Ones Feet Small. This
is difficult. The first eign that one
has passed youth is the tendency to
wear larger pair of shoes and
this is necessary. The feet spread
and really grow. To remedy this
wear shoes as long as can be man
aged, but not as wide as seem neces-
sary. Never wear old slippers
around the house, unless they are
snug in the width, and be careful Of
corns. These are never necessary
while the chiropodist exists.
To Have a Fine Color. Wash the
face with the juice Of preserved
strawberries in the winter and in
summer rub ripe berry on the
face. s~.5.$, .s
For Smooth, White Skin, With
out Dieting.-Bathe the face daily
with buttermilk. A preparation o.
tincture of benzoin and rosewater
is excellent for whitening purposes.
There are very good prepared
creams, but these are never cheap.
Do rot 60 under 81 for them if you
want them compounded of fine and
pure materials. .'If
To Have Ones Garments Sweet
Scented. MAKE sachet bags and slip
them in the Innings of dresses. They
will, if good at first, keep their scent
for year or more. Fold the bodices
of the scented go1ns and lay them
away in alright boxes. This fills
them with scent. - Philadelphia
