You notice compilations in the
Spring. People who have plenty Of
rich red blood have lips deep, rosy
red, eyes bright and clear. Good
compilations are based on the solid
foundation Of good blood, with plen-
ty of red corpuscles. When blood be-
comes clogged with impurities, when
the red corpuscles are not absorbing
enough oxygen from the lungs and
distributing it to the cells through
out the body good compilations
fade. Not only that, hut you feel
tired and exhausted all the time.
Your shoulders droop and you
lounge around and lean against any
thing handy. You lack energy be-
cause your blood is weak and thin
not enough red corpuscles.
People call,it "Spring Fever" Call
it what you will, it is bad blood. 1t

squatty person has no style.
Always look in a full length mir
ror when choosing a hat to see how
it's width aud its outlines agree with
your height and general build. If
you are short, do not wear too vide
brims, nor those with downward
curve. Choose those Of moderate size
with the brim turning upward if in
any direction.
The size of the head is another
consideration with the well dressed
woman. A small well-shaped head is
a beauty point. Always remember
this when you feel tempted to puff
out your hair unduly and indulge in
too many curls and too many friz-
zling. The present style fortunately
recognizes this, but you still see mis-
guided women, both young and old,
who ruin the shape of their heads
with chignons which stick out be-
hind, or on top of their heads, ear
puffs which are large enough to be
grotesque and extra hair in the way
of switches and curls where none are
needed.
The are also a great many mis-
takes made in the way the neck is
treated. A short neck should never
be dressed up with frills or highly
rolled collars. Usually the plump
short necked girl is apt to be fond
of frills and knife-p leated jabots.
She will not adopt clean sharp
neck line, but will persist in adding
a collar and a bow, or at least bit
of ruehing to soften the plain eff
