SURPLUS WEIGHT.

A humorous doctor recently

gain in efficiency that would re-
suit, If all the nations dieted
down to proper individual amounts.
/ have forgotten exactly how many
billion pounds the world was to
lose or how many million working
hours of accomplishment were to
be gained. He chose a rather wild
and vague aspect of the subject
of reduction though he did make
Of it an interesting article. / wish
he had calculated how many starV-
ing children in Russia might be
saved IL they could be given the
amount of food consumed by the
fat woman to whom it is harm
full rather than benefit!
For in order to reduce, 1t Is
necessary to diet. 1t does not
matter whether you diet by eat
ing small quantities of everything
you want or larger quantities of
foods which do not fatten, You
need not mind even if you feel
hungry and you will neither starve
to death nor ruin your health by
eating too little. Human beings are
very much like the camel who
stores up enough fat in the
hump on his back to last him on
a seven days trip across the
desert. The chief difference is
that the camel is meant to store
this surplus flesh and the hui

Bandeaux for evening coiffures
are coming back into style after
several seasons of unadorned head
dress. They are particularly be-
coming to the youthful debutantes,
and many of the new wreaths
make the bobbed locks look quite
formal and dignified. Beaded
bandeaux, metal ones, ribbon and
flower garlands are the most pop
ular for the younger girls. Jeweled
bands with feathered ornaments
are worn by the older matrons.
Rosebuds and forget-me-nots set
on a band of gold and silver ribbon
form this charming ornament pic
tured here. 1t makes the youth :
