Ways of Taking Years
OFF 4 Woman's Age.

There are women. and most OF US know
them. who cannot stoop TO pick up a
handkerchief without getting red In the
face. There are those who cannot lift a
window without palpitatiOn of the heart.
Thousands Of women have difficulty In
walking upstairs. and the number who can
run without getting out OF breath within
thirty yards can be counted upon one hand.
Now and then you see a woman who IS
capable Of running upstairs and down
again, who can walk gracefully. and who
can lift and reach and pick up and yet
without suffering from 4 flushed face and
a quickened breath.
And when YOU do ind such a woman
you VIII find one who impresses you as
being a young woman She is so 1.-the that
you associate her with youth. no matter
how old she may be.
