Living in cramped quarters has to be

outlook, it is easier to put up with lack
of space, for which no amount Of mod
ern convenience can entirely make up.
The woman who has been accustomed
to plenty of room, enough closet space
and that opportunity for freedom from
continual personal contacts impossible
to get in cramped living conditions Is
the one who finds adjustment to a
small, or comparatively small, apart
ment a genuine trial.
When such conditions are unavoid-

submitting to them otherwise, then is
the time to ferret in ones mind for an
attitude that will ease the strain and
struggle for a broader physical horizon.
It is the mental horizon that can re-
tain its supremacy. 1t does not need
to be hampered. Instead, it can open
vistas of interest even in the cramped
and insufficient area.
Think of the dwelling as miniature

in the tiny kitchenette the condensed

Blue Serge May Be

IT is q little difficult to decide just

they go away on vacation they do need
them.
There Is always something trim and
neat and becoming in simple blue

can be coated in blue serge, from little
to big and the result is decidedly good
to look at. So consider blue serge when
you are making your decision.
Blue serge coats can be bought In any

and smart coats. It needs a little skill
and good deal of patience to get the
small coats pressed properly. Perhaps
your tailor will, for payment, do the

this sort of thing.
Jersey cloth coats or sweaters are also
a good choice. Dark gray is always

Wants to Lose Weight.

Wants to Lose Weight.
Dear Miss Leeds am feet 312
inches tall and my weight is 143 pounds.
I am 20 years old. How much over
weight am I?
I gained this weight from childbirth;
before that time weighed 118 pounds.
Do you think will lose this without a
diet? My baby was stillborn, and that
was eight months ago. Since that time
I have been gaining continuously. II
you don't think / will lose this weight
would you advise diet and what kind?
MRS. A. D.
Answer-You are about 20 pounds
over the normal weight FOR your height
and age. Undoubtedly this condition
is caused by your unfortunate expert
ence; it is quite possible that the glands
which control weight have not been
functioning properly since that time.
I could suggest several special diets
which would make the excess pounds go,
but dieting without the advice of ply
stefan is never very wise; and in your case
I most certainly would not wish you to
do so. My advice to you Is to see your
physician and after an examination he
will be able to suggest diet which
will help you reduce and yet will not
imperil your health. LOIS LEEDS.
