If You Would Be Beautiful.

Too much stress cannot be laid upon
the tremendous need of simple, substan-
tial food and sufficient rest The aver
age young woman of to-day is as busy as
a bee. Beauty is only another name for
health, and to overtax the system is like
putting $99 in the bank and drawing out
500; you never get ahead that way.
Few women eat what is best for them.
They nibble on sweets and pastries,
keeping the stomach in continual state
of strife and turmoil Instead of bon
bons and cakes eat fresh fruit and
drink mineral waters. A daily bath is a
great aid to beauty. Rub the body we'll
with moistened salt, jump into the tub
and turn on tepid spray, chilling grad
ually. Rub down we'll with a coarse
towel and you will feel as fine as a fiddle.

There are plenty Of remedies by which
you can relieve for the time heartburn,

stomach by giving it predigested food.
But when you take your next meal al.
your trouble begins afresh.
There is only one sensible thing to do.
