do the dieting for the family, II she
needs it. There is something you can
do much better than she can, and that
is exercising. OF that you may do all
you like, because il a girl is active che
probably isn't burdened with the thing
she believes will make a wallflower OF
her.
Exercise Is the Thing
Go in for swimming, for basketball,
for running and jumping, for hiking
and tennis and golf; for any and every
form Of sport which comes within your
province-even TO handsprings, vault
ing, javelin MISUNDERSTANDING and
everything that will keep you actively
on your feet and will render you supple
and lively. That's your reducing Sc
cret, your health secret, and your
beauty secret.
Did you not notice in the numerous
pictures presented of the girl athletes
chosen to represent America at Paris
a beautiful development of body-not
padded with fat but firm and full?
Exercise is the thing for you young
girls. If you cannot get it any other
way, take up gym work.
Eat three meals a day-foods that
are strength giving and body building,
including plenty of fruits and vege-
| tables. And diet only on the excessive
| sweets, Sodas! And ice creams! You
do require a certain amount OF sugar,
but in three well balanced meals a day
you will get all or nearly all the sugar
your system requires. Starches, when
assimilated, provide the same heat
energy.
Growing Process Needs Fuel
If you go out at noon and buy for
luncheon eclaires, d%oughnuts, cream
| puffs or foods like that, you are going
to have a poor complexion as well as ar
undernourished body. Good soup
salad. bread and butter and fruit des'
sert are what you should order.
You must try to realize that q girl
needs more food and at more frequent
intervals than a grown woman because,
besides keeping up the heat of the body
she has 10 supply the material for the
growing process. The building up OF
the frame, the full strength of the
nerves, the hard working blood must be
supplied by food. II you do not ea'
enough to supply heat, the other needs
of the body will suffer in proportion:
/ heard one young girl criticizlne
another for her unladylike appetite
The critic was a poor faulty postured
anemic little thing; the criticized 9
wholesome, happy ray of sunshine. A
healthy appetite is not unladylike-
never was and never will be.
Beware the Sweets
But a healthy appetite is not one oil
over-consumption of candy, of ice cream
and cakes, and Of eating between meals
Candy and other sweets are too offer
eaten between meals or early in thu
morning, causing lack of appetite fol
the foods that are the making Of the
beautiful girl. With this loss of appe
tite, the body cannot get its nourishint
and bowel cleansing food. The loss o.
this n%ourishing food and the natura
result of having nothing in the intes
tines which will wash these food tract!
out, does all the harm.
You cannot live unnaturally and b.
pretty, girls. That's all there is to il
1t is unnatural to starve yourself ant
IL Is unnatural TO overeat or to eat tot
much Of one kind Of food, particular,
sweets. Sometimes your system viii
crave a little extra sugar, if your meal
are not satisfying the demand. Thei
eat a piece of two OF candy but at thu
end of the meal, preferably dinner
never before a meal.
Eat breakfast, girls. luncheon ant
dinner, too-and a fairly good meal a
each session.
Then forget the diet except, as
have said, as it applies to sweets ant
candy.
And exercise.
