MILADY'S BEAUTY SECRETS
BY CATHERINE CALVERT.
mrs. Paul Armstrong;

Exercise induces circulation. Good
circulation aids Digestion, assists
the lungs In their work. and tones
! up the skin. But there are exer-
cises and exercises. Great care
must bo used In adopting only such
kinds OF exercises as do not over
stimulate and exhaust the system.
| Too strenuous exercise is as bad as
none at all.
Skating Is one form OF sport
which every woman can safely en-
icy. When correctly done 1t not
only strengthens the muscles, fills
the lungs with good fresh air and
stimulates the circulation, but II
also gives grace TO the body. No
beauty Is complete II divorced from
grace.
To derive the benefit from an af-
ternoon's skating II Is necessary
that warm garments be worn-warm
and light. l myself prefer sweaters
OF very fine woolens. They do not
weigh down. and they keep the
cold winds out. One must also
stand erect. with the abdomen well

care should be taken that the mouth
is kept closed.

give a sparkle to the eye and add a
richness to the voice.
An agreeable way TO reduce the
waistline is to swing the arms from
side to side while skating swinging
them as far each way as they will

waist and hips is to bend over while
moving rapidly along, picking up an
imaginary ball which is supposed to
be OH the ice.

the position is correct, II the breath
Ing is done properly. it will be sur
prising how supple and graceful the
bearing of the body will become.
The complexion will improve and
the general body condition as well.
In the countries where skating is
common TO all. the people walk
along with the grace and beauty Of
an animal; also the percentage OF i'll
health is smaller than in the coun-
tries where the winter outdoor
sports have lost their popularity.
We all know how the old folks be-

The second large doorway from
