These twisted rollers enable
woman to reduce the size of
her arms by self.massaging for
about twenty minutes a day.
General attention to diet and
exercise aids the reducing pro-
cess. In fact exercise viii prove
just as efficacious a reducing
measure as a massage, provided
YOU exercise strenuously, faith
fully for at least twenty minutes
daily.
Here are two simple exercises
which, practiced swiftly and ener.
geticaHy every morning, should
bring graceful symmetry to your
arms.
Extend your arms straight
from your sides at shoulder
height. Now rapidly circle them.
with your fists closed tight, for
ward down back and up. Repeat
the circling movement twenty
times, then reverse it by circlins
ycur arms backward. down, for.
ward and up, another twenty
times.

EXERCISES FOR ARMS
Massaging Recommended to Bring
Grace and Slenderness to
Your Arms.

The second exercise is even
more simple. Hold your arms
straight out from your shoulders.
On count one raise them straight
up at either side of your head
On count two lower them once
more to the shoulder level. Repea1
briskly for twen.y counts.
Possibly your arms, instead of
being overlarge, are scrawny--a
condition quite as FAR removed
from beauty as fat arms. In
that case take the exercises more
slowly and only ten times. At
night sponge your arms and
shoulders with warm olive oil IL
they are too thin.
While you wait for your daily
exercise TO reduce the size of
your arms you can add much TO
your appearance by observing
the following rules Of dress:
Have the sleeves Of your frocks
and coats just full enough to
leave the outline of your arms a
bit in doubt. Avoid both tight
arm holes and sleeves and very
full sleeves. A large arm-hole
and set-in sleeve will make you
look smaller for it win break the
wide silhouette of your costume
and also narrow its front and
back. These large, set.in arm
holes look particularly well in
coats and wraps.
Never wear cuffs Of different
material and color from your
sleeves IL your arms are fat be-
cause by breaking the line Of
your sleeves they will make your
arms look shorter and thicker.
Even an evening gown win
prove more becoming il you wear
it with a semblance Of sleeves
such as a bit Of drapery. For the
lace or chiffon viii veil the upper
and largest part of your arms
and make them look far more
slender than they would in a
sleeveless gown.
Systematic massage. diet, and
exercise win reduce your arms to
graceful proportions. Clever at,
tention to the details of dress
will bring out the best points Of
your arms and shoulders and
hide all defects.

Few Honest Hits.
So much of the regular outfield ter
ritory at Forbes Field has been util-
lied for stands intended only for the
titular struggle that few honest hits
can be made here. A fair idea of
how unreasonably these temporary
stands in Pittsburgh have been plan
ned may be CLEANED from the quality
of the hits that We're made by the
Pirates in the fifth inning of yester-
days engagement. That wallop of
Eddie Moores that cleared the bar
rier confronting the left-feld stand
probably would have been a rather
easy chance for the average big
league left fielder on an ordinary
field. Goose Goslin was against the
fence long before the ball got there
but could only stand and watch it
soar across. Clyde Barnhart later in
the same frame sent a terrific drive
against the higher portion of the
screen that would have resulted in a
hree-bagger in the average big.
league park with no screen to inter.
fere with the progress of the ball
Yet it was good for only two bases
Those hits We're glaring examples
of the inadequate space remaining
the game after accommodation are
arranged supposedly for the benefit
of the frenZied fans. but seemingly
for the satisfaction of men who look
more to the mercenary than the ar
tistic side of the game
OF course, the magnateS are in the
game TO get a good return upon their
investment made. In some instances
investments have been huge, but
probably more often owners have rur
the proverbial shoestring into a mil
lion.
Few Lose Money.
There are not many, if any, of the
bIC-lcaEue owners who lose money
during the league campaigns, wheT
d., their permanent stands are all they
( have for the accommodation of pa
; irons. But it seems that most o1
them believe the only proper way tC
get the real coin is to jam all the
people they possibly can into a plant
that has playing field reduced to
q ground more fit for town ball than
the national game by the erection OF
extra stands.
That may be fine for the magnates
for a time. but it does not give the
people their real game. Some OF
