N HE stout people are the ones who
receive most attention in beauty col
ums. The thin ones are usually for
gotten otter ,sn,t fair re- hard life for
the girl who never dares show her
meager arms and who has to resort to
all sorts of devices in the way. of lace
and ribbon and flower trimmings to con-
ceal the scrawny neck and shoulders that
a decollete gown brutality reveals.
This girl deserves a few tips. and she
is going to get them here and now on this
page.
Perhaps you will think it odd to read
certain advice for gaining needed flesh
and find that 1t is Identical with some
given to get rid Of superfluous flesh. 1t
doesn't look reasonable at first glance
that one should get stout by the same
system which another uses to get thin.
Yet it is consistent, and for this reason:
Excessive stoutness and excessive thin
ness are both abnormal and unhealthy.
Improving the general. health will tend
TO bring the body to a normal develop
ment, and certain exercises will do this
for either the fat or the thin.
One must bear in mind that 1t takes
time to overcome a fault which has
been growing for years. Physical culture
means hard but very pleasant work. III
you have a sorawny neck and hollow
chest you cannot expect to fill them out
in week. 1t takes time for muscle TO
grow.
First, the system has TO undergo a
change. New blood has to be made, and
this means patience and hard work. But
then who would not consider time well
spent for plump shoulders, high chest
and rounded throat?
II you are too thin to possess the de-
sired roundness Of contour it lies within

strength are surely within your reach.
If you are too thin you are not in nor
NAL health. The neglect to thoroughly
masticate is one or the frequent causes
of malassimilation which often results in
excessive thinness.
The weight is Influenced not. by what
you eat, but by what you assimilate. If
you should eat seven times a day 1t
might not have the slightest effect upon
your weight.
Eating too fast and drinking too much
fluid with the meals is slow suicide.
When we eat too fast the food is not
properly mixed with saliva.
Most of us are inclined to eat more
than nature requires We would be in
far better condition If we ate less than
we do and only when we are hungry.
Lack Of exercise is great hindrance TO
digestion; also irregularity in eating. The
digestive organs are subject TO habit like
the rest of the system. Al the aecus-
toned meal time saliva and digestive flu
ids flow. If no food is taken when they
are prepared they do not start 50 readily
again.
