For the HIN Woman

Get as much sleep as possible.
DO not rush, or overdo your strength.
Keep IN the open air as much as pos
sible, take all the exercises your system
can stand without feeling the least IA
tigue.
Get into the habit Of resting little
while in tho middle of the day, even if
you are not aware Of being tired.
Laugh as much as possible. Read funny
things and cultivate that side Of your
self Suppress any tendency to take life
too seriously.
DO not worry about your looks. IT is
much easier for a very thin woman to
dress so as to conceal her defects than IL
IS for a fat woman to do the same thing.
DO not rush too madly into the fashion
for skimpy things
Remember that the clinglng gown re-
quires something to cling to.
A thin woman can indulge in a moderate
and perfectly harmless amount Of pad
ding, and in the hands Of good dress
maker she can hardly fail to look well.
She must choose clothes according Ia
her type, however, and not indulge in the
gowns built for her pumper sisters. no
matter how charming they may be.
