Clarifying
Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEA service SLaH WRITER
While corset designers have been
busily creating foundation garments
to make the waistline appear much
smaller than it actually is, beauty
experts have been just as busy Great
ing exercises to make the waistline
so small that new corsetS will not
have to be laced SO tightly as to
interfere with normal breathing.
In other words, salons of body
sculpture and various health farms
advise us to achieve natural figure
which will conform to the new
Mainbocher silhouette. And then,
if we like, to dramatic further our
new, but natural, figure by wearing
one of the widely-touted, faced cor
sets. They are opposed to lacing a
thick waiStline into boned corset
Slim down your wa.scline first, is
their idea, then wear a corset only
if you want to.
To slenderize the waistline, here
are some exercises recommended by
well-known expert:
do the foundation exercise first"
he advises. Lie fiat on your back
with hands (palms DOWN at sides.
Keeping knees rigid, slowly raise legs
until they are perpendicular to your
body. Lower just as slowly. Repeat
ten times.
After the foundation" exercises,
repeat this routine ten times:
If you do not have a wheel which
you can nail to the wall of your
garage or playroom, plant an ina
ginary wheel on the wall and, pre-
tending to grasp the spokes with
outStretched arms, roll the body to
the left until you can feel a decided
pull through the midriff. Reverse,
rolling to the right as far as possible
Now stand erect with feet slightly
apart. Raise the right leg backward,
keeping knee straight, head up, arms
outStretched in the direction of the
leg. Return to position. Repeat,
stretching left leg backward, keep
ing head up, knee straight.
DEEPBREATHING
STRENGTHENS WAIST
Also to strengthen saggnig waist
line muscles, stand against a wall
before an open window, insale deep
ly, raising hands behind head and
contracting abdominal muscles. Hold
your breath as long as possible then
exhale slowly, lowering arms to sides.
Finally, lie on your back on the
floor with arms outstretched at
shoulder level. Raise legs. keeping
knees rigid and hips in place, then
let legs fall slowly to the right, then
to the left. Alternate this movement
20 times.

Handsome draperies = that bring
to your living-room the richness
and color of autumn!
Smart and new-and simple to
make-is the valance striped in
leaf brown and ruSt-red.
The side draperies and cascades
are of plain rust-red, while the lin
ings of the cascades are of the same
striped material as the valance.
For the valance, cut two straight
pieces of material and haste in rich
folds. Tack one end of each piece
to valance board, then after drap-
ing pieces back in swag effect, fast
en- other ends to window frame.
The long cascades you cut and
fold as shown in diagram-and tack
to valance board.
The side draperies, which hang
on rod beneath the valance board,
fall in graceful folds if you make
French headings for them-which
you can easily do with simple di-
rections.
Our 32-page booklet gives STEP

We surely need some restraint and

we get. Many children know too lit

1T IS 1915 AND MORE ARE WELL

A facetious remark of yours, to
the effect that you get in Dutch with
many Of your colleagues because you
inform the public of advances in
medicine few years before the real
doctors, busy with their practice, get
the hang of the newfanged method
prompts me to write you, says q
correspondent.
The correspondent goes on to tell
of his experience with diabetes, over
a period Of thirty years Che is
now rs years old, and compares his
comfortable existence now with the
years of restriction prior to the in
PRODUCTION of insulin in 1924. Before
insrlin he was practically an invalid
Today, with his daily shot of in
sulin, he enjoys a more comfortable
and active life than may a "well''
man Of his age. For one thing he
plays a round of golf nearly every
day, thing he never expected to
do again when he had diabetes be-
fore insulin.
The man remarks that he is for
tunately able to pay the price for
insulin and he'd have it even if it
cost ten times as much as it does,
yet he Is in full sympathy with my
protest against the strange distor-
ton of the fundamental principles
Of medical ethics" evinced by the
sanctioning Of the patent monopoly
on insulin by the American Medi-
cal association. The right about face
Of the organized medical profession
on the ethics Of patenting medicines
Is hard to comprehend, in view of
the traditional altrusion of the dis
ciples of Hippocrates.
A handbook or guidebook recon-
mended years ago has proved in
valuable and the correspondent has
found it precisely what I described

The title is "A Book For Us Dia-
betics," by Don H. Duff1e, M. D.,

is training for diabetes, who has the

several similar books available for

Years ago I met DR.. Duffie and
talked with him for a brief half
hour-he was passing through our
village on his way to postgraduate
study in a large institution for dia-
betics. Acquaintance enough to leave
a lasting impression on me. When

a composite picture of half dozen

one of them.

fairly well off. He might do a lot

Fruit Juice Hokum


How can woman eliminate a

LUCILLE BALL
DESIGNS HER

By LUCE NEVILLE


NEA Service Staff Correspondent
Hollywood-Most of the clothes Luz
ellie Ball wears on the screen aren't
studio designed. They're from the
actress personal wardrobe-her own
designs, made by temperamental
dressmaker who can follow Miss
Balls vague sketches and very def
finite instructions. And, an exfashion
model for swank New YORK shops,
she knows how to wear them. Con-
sequently, she's one of the best
dressed Hollywood stars, off stage
and on-and for much less money.
She isn't a copy-cat. 81 look at
fashion magazines, of course, but I
haven't been to a fashion showing
in couple of years." Miss Ball said.
And I'm not going to try to wear
every new style because it's the
thing. I don't like most of the hats
this year because they make me
look too tall-I'm five feet six-but
the feminine ones with bows and
feathers are swell. love the bustles,
but I can't wear exaggerated ones.

Actually, you can't make your
clothes look, very different from other
women'S. Otherwise you LOOK freak
ish. I have my best luck in pick
ing unusual fabrics and color COM
binations, and in jewelry that's out
of the ordinary. I have lots of it
made. Sometimes change it to suit
myself, like adding a row of big
colored hoops to gold choker neck
lact, to match the stripes in a gysy
blouse that's turquoise and purplish-

Typical of her color-and fabric
choosing is two-piece dinner frock,
its yardS-wide skirt of heavy black
taffeta, its long-sleeved jacket of a
smooth faillelike silk broadly strip
ed in rose gray and pinkish cream.
A double box-pleat up the back
gives flare to the peplum cut.
Another pet is silk jersey in
pale blue-her favorite shade-which
depends entirely upon its slim, flow
ing lines. With it she wears a floor
long, hooded velvet evening coat of
cerise-a lovely color combination.
She's taking these clothes, and
others she designed, on a long-de-
layed New York vacation. A blue
velvet evening frock has huge bows
