pounds, and I am about 81 inches In
height. I am bigger than my sister
who Is sixteen and weigh more than

IL taller than I. 1 get "poked fun" at
sometimes for being so fat. Do you
think l am any overweight? I have
10 81
alum brown hair, my face is not too
long nor round. I think I look better
with my hair pulled out on the sides
than l do with 1t just combed back and
braided Could you suggest a girlish
fashion in which could comb my hair
without snarling It? Wishing you
much success 1 am

II you are now eating lots Of sweets,
rats, white bread and potatoes, just
forget them and substitute all the
lresn green vegetables and fruits you
can; take all the exercise you can, and
take 1t strenuously, not forgetting a
Tally walk. Let your other exercises be ,
whatever Is available to you whether
I be swimming, horseback riding,
ennis, ETC., but try to do something
ike this every day. If you do this I am =,
very sure you will soon reduce" the )
necessary amount. Suppose you try {
arranging the hair by parting it
trafght down the middle of the back. =
'raid each side close to the ears and :
oil the braid in knot over the ears
rrangfng the hair about the face in Y
oft, becoming manner, by either part
