THE WOMAN WHO WANTS
]. 49,. TO BECOME PLUMP
II She Will Follow This Advice She
Will Cl0the Herself With a
Layer of Soft Fair Fat.

Much has been written for the benefit
of the stout women who wish to become
thin, bnt little time has been expended
i'm giving advice to angular women, who
are anxious to berome plump. If a
woman is all angles and is flat where she
should have graceful curves, she can
achieve much in the way of a cure If she
vii have patience and follow out the
directions given her. Some people seem
born With an inheritance of angularity,
and the yare apt to sigh and lament
over the plumpness of their more favored
contemporaries. OF course this uut nat
ural. when everyone knows how much
more attractive a pretty figure is than
to have none at all. Ones sfrocks are SO
much more becoming when there is
more inside to fill them out, and natural
rounded curves re, of course ,mafero I
rounded cureves are, of course, far more
effective than those to be achieved by
Artificial means.
THE FIGURE.
If a woman wishes to possess a good
figure, She must submit to "a perfect
regime of diet and exercise to obtain
this allIpo-be-desired resolt. If she has
only a poorly developed figure, the cure
of course will not a SO long to effect
as ii she had no figure at AM. But in
both cases she must pay the most care
ful attention to every detail laid down
for her use. And, after all, time spent

tlsactive is surely not time wasted.
To begin with, she must begin the cure
the first thing when she wakes up in the
morning. She must give up her beloved
early tea, and take a cup of new warm
milk from the COW, if obtainable, If.
however. she is a dweller in towns where
such luxur-es are not to be had, the milk
must be we'll sweetened and one-third of
1T cream. Her bath must be of tepid wa
ter and a soap which will lather well.
The chest, While still damn. should be
rubbed gently i'm a circular ann and
for this purpose a rough washing glove,
we'll soaped, should be used When the
skin is dry, the neck and chest should
be gently n firmly rubbed in the same
manner, with a fattening lotion. The
gentle friction should continue till all
the fat is absorbed and the skin is dry
and soft.
A very good lotion is obtained by mix
ing equal parts of linseed Oil and latt
VII sinal together. This later can, if
wished, be made at home in the follow
ing manner: Tincture of myrrh, "a drops;
simple tincture of benzoin, two ounces;
orange-fiower water, one quart. Or you
cam use pure linseed oil, with range wa
ter in equal parts.
The friction hould be continued for
five minutes at a time, or longer if pos
sible. The hand must not be used too
heavily. as grea care must be taken not
TO bruise the skin in any way. After the
bath you should lie down for five min
utes and then go through dumb-bell and
gymnastic exercises before the eorsets
are put ON. An excellent plan is to hold
the dumb-bells on you shoulders, ex-
pand the chest, and walk slowly up and
down the room, throwing the leg for

ground. The head should be held we'll
back. This will serve to expand the
chest admirably and improve the figure.

hour at a time.
Singing scales should also be practiced
every day, and get into the habit of TAX
