There seems to be a revival of In

Is an encouraging sign. Certainly
there is no surer way to gain health
and happiness. The Englishweman
owes her superb physique largely TO
her life spent in the fields hunting ana
riding.
The American girl dresses far bet

the other side of the water gets more
wholesome fun out of life than the
