cannot be filled out by applications of

built up from within by nourishing

lousy laved away in a reducing bath
In order to reduce BEAUTIFULLY it is
necessary TO break down myriads of
fat cells by natures method, that is,
by refusing them sustenance and by
converting them into energy through
exercise.
When it comes TO complexion and
scalp troubles ones general health is
q big factor in any successful treat
ment. The anemic, underweight girl
must improve her physical condition
before her hair will stop coming out
in handfuls and before her skin will
become clear and fine. Both under
weight and excessive overweight are
as much handicaps to personal beauty
as a crooked nose or harelip would
be. the difference being that in the
latter cases a surgical operation is
needed. while in the former simple n.y.
gienic measures are all that is re-
quired for cure,
There are several ways in which one
can tell when ones health is below

consulting a weighing machine. 1t is

A word of warning about too implicit
belief in lightweight tables is need
ed. They are, of course, obtained by
striking an average among a large
number of cases. There will always
be individuals who are exceptions to
the general rule. 1t is natural that
