While the ideal figure In the worid
OF art and fashion to-day Is tail, slen-
der and willowy, there Is an utter ap-
sence of angles.
Merely because woman has gooo
height and is sparsely built does not
place her in the fashionable class. her
figure must not only be OF symmetri-
cal proportions, but possess those
long, graceful, sweeping curves WHICH
characterize the ideal figure.
Starting at the shoulders, the line
passing over the bust must be nun
and round, tapering to the waist, then
gracefully curying over the hips ana
sweeping away to the feet. Inc eA-
ouisite beauty of such figures Is oest
appreciated when studying the lines
from the back or profile.
The right kind OF exercise anu

mediums that will accomplish the
