ten times the chances of marriage that
girl weighing 1870 to 1876 pounds has. A
girl weighing ITO pounds has six times
the chances OF the heavier girl. A girl
weighing 100 pounds has four times the
chances. The opportunity for marriage
decreases as the weight goes up. Men
prefer slim. slight, slender, lightweight
girls. The most popular feminine stand
ard Of beauty Is slight. The Dresden
china Eiri has a thousand chances for
marriage against the 150-pounder who
may be able to sing in opera.
There is a psychologist reason for this.
A man gaZes upon slight girl. he
realizes, although perhaps subconscious-
ly. that she will give herself readily and

the other two prefer thin. delicate out
