Exercise for That
Slender Wdistline

With the ma ATTEST winter
dresses continuing to emphasize
the waistline, exercise experts now
come forth with a series of new
routines which, If done regularly
and correctly, will make waist
lines as supple and slender as the
clothes demand.
For instance, variations of the
old forward ding exercise
cleaning forward to touch floor
with fingertips, meanwhile keep
ing knees stiff are recommended,
Here are a few efficacious ones:
Stand erect with arms at sides
and feet about Is inches apart
Raise hands upward above head
and, without moving feet, swing
right hand down to left foot. Re-
turn to first position, then touch
right toes with left hand. Repeat
10 times.
Now stand about one foot away
from a rather tall dresser or chest
with your back toward it, feet Is
inches apart. Place hands on
hips, then lean backward until
head touches the sser.
Strengthen up slowly, rest a sec
ond or two, and repeat. Later on,
Of course. youll become so eff
cient at back bending that you'll
be able to lean backward until
head touches a low dresser instead
of a high one. This exercise slen-
derizes the waistline and gives the
figure that coveted long look
through the middle
Sit forward in a straight chair
with arms at sides and feet flat
on the floor. Now, bending at the
waistline. lean toward the left as
far rs possible Straighten Up
again, then lean to the right.
Lie on the floor with ankles to-
gether and arms at sides. Keep
ing shoulders flat and perfectly
still, raise legs slowly upward until
they are perpendicular with your
body. Lower them just as slowly
This should be repeated 10 times
a day.

Watch Your Shoes

Perfect grooming should start
with the feet--not with the head
as apparently so many think.
Unless your feet arc comfort
able you won't stand and walk in
the queenly but youthful fashion
which sets your clothes and figure
off to best advantage. And great
deal of the charm of the lovellest
couture. the smoothest skin and
the smartest outfit is lost if their
wearer's shoes are shapless or
dusty or tied with bedraggled RIB
hons.
Your shoes ought to fit properly,
of course. Have your feet meas
ured carefully each time you go
to choose a new pair and walk
around the shop in them for sew
eral minutes before you make a
final decision. They should allow
adequate space for all of your
toes TO lie flat and they ought to
be snug at the back. Otherwise
they'll slide up and down and wear
out your stockings.
If possible, have pair of shoe
shaped trees for every pair of day
time shoes you own, and always
insert a pair OF trees as soon as
you take off your shoes. Put trees
in evening slippers the moment
they are removed. Then, next
morning, remove the trees. stuff
the toes of the slippers with tissue
paper and wrap them in black It's
sue paper before putting them
away If wrapped in black tissue
and kept in box. metallic slip
pers won't tarnish quickly.
Keep small wire suede brush,
a regular shoe brush, a box of
polish and an extra pair of ties
handy. Never put on shoes that
haven't been brushed or polished.

Mail there was not even the faint
psychological relief from the dry,
burning heat which comes with the

In their private car Lord and
Lady Esketh, in separate compart-

which lay wrapped in towels in

dampness which the melting ice
created seemed only to make it
worse.
In his compartment Lord Esketh
smoked cigars and drank whisky
and rang for his valet, now to
open a window and now to close
one, now TO change the adjustment
of the fan or to send in another
cake of ice. Sleepless, he tried in

grams or to bring order out of
the chaos of figures on the sheet
of paper before him.
He was a big man of AS, big of
frame and heavy with weight de-
spite riding and massage and ex-
ercise. He had large, rather
round face, which was an anomaly,
an ill-natured fat face. 1t was
the thrust of the jaw and the al
most lipless mouth which made it
so, for they gave him look of
brutality and ruthlessness. On his
nose and the cheek bones there as

The drinking had begun long

Albert Simpson, selling cutlery

terward at home in England he
had drunk to fight off the damp
cold and to push his brain when il
grew tired and confused, and
finally, as he grew rich and his
future became complicated, he
drank because that was the only
way he could save himself from
the feeling that he was being
crushed by the very monster OF
success which he had created.
He hated heat, for it sent up his
blood pressure and made his heac
feel as If it were bursting. anc

Dear Mrs Post. How are

after dinner7 Are they brought
IN on the tray with the coffee and
are they supposed to be drunk
with the coffee or afterwards?
Answer. Liqueurs arc never nut
on the coffee tray. They are put
on tray by themselves two or
three or four bottles. or liqueur de-
canters and a row OF little glassesb
and proffered as soon AS the COT
fee has been passed. II you have
only one tray. on which the cof-
fee Is passed. this same tray could
Of course be used first for coffee
and then reset with liqueurs. But
If you make coffee In the living
room, then a separate and smaller
tray for liqueurs would be neces-
sary.
Dear Mrs. Post: What is the
procedure for crumbing the table
during the meal Must tray
and special brush be used or will
something else do just as well?
Answer: Before the dessert
course is to be served. the table is
CLEARED" This means that I'M
used flat silver, bread and butter
plates and pepper pots and salt
cellars are all removed on serv-
ing tray. A napkin folded to con-
venient size-about six inches and
doubled over again--is used to
brush crumbs from the table onto
the serving tra% held close be-
meath the tables edge. II you hap
pen TO have a crumbing brush or
silver "crumb scraper' 1t would
of course be proper to use It, but
in smartest modern houses the
