diligent work. But this work ISM

though II does take a little time to
bring about noticeable improvement,
the homely condition will continue
forever IL we don't do something
about II. NC good fairy Is going "a
wave her magic wand over our
homely legs except ourselves.
There is ore simple exercise that
accomplishes W purposes. that OF
developing and rounding out the calf
OF the leg and reducing the ankles
at the same time. Surely. this two
fold benefit will interest all OF you.
II consists OF rising up on the
toes. balancing there a moment. then
lowering the heels TO the floor again.
Repeated ten or twenty times. morn
ing and night, IL win do wonders for
the contour OF the legs within q few
months.
Then you can walk up ana down
stairs on the balls OF the feet. This
also develops the calves OF the legs
and slenderizes the ankles. The ac-
ton is practically the same in both
exercises. the second suggestion be-
ing just a variation.
Another thing OF importance 10
the beauty Of the legs and ankles n
the new heel line in stockings. II
you have rather large ankles and
legs that are unshapely when seer

appear smaller by wearing the high.
sharply pointed heel line. A thin
leg can be made to appear more
rounded In the hack by the square
top-heel line. while the very scrawny
leg can be considerably pumped out

point heel.
The height OF the heels or the
slippers also has a great deal TO do
with the beauty Of the legs and
should be carefully studied before
making a final selection. Too low
a heel viii spread out the ankle
and instep. causing the foot to ap-
pear heavy and pudgy. while 4
higher heel will slenderize the foot
and ankle and mold the calf OF the
leg into a more pleasing contour.
Then. again. too high heels frequent.
