Why Grow Old?
Need Perfect
Figure for
Stacks
By Josephine lowmon

It is hard to believe but this is
really what the well-dressed
woman wore in the 1906: A.
corset, q corset cover. chemise,
a wool or cotton underskirt. at
least two petticoats and often q
lined dress. It makes me feel
short Of breath even thinking
about it!
just getting into her corset
was major and painful project.
With the 18-inch waist q popular
asset you can imagine what she
went through In order to get
into this restraining garment.
II she did not have some one to,
'lace her in" she tied the corset
strings to the bedpost and moved
away from the bed until she
squeezed herself iii.
Mrs. Boomers Crusade
Around 1910, a Mrs. Bloomer,

wanted to be relieved Of the re-
strlcting and weighty clothes nf.
the day. However. there were
evidently not enough women who
wished to give up their petit
coats, and so the movement died
down entirely within a compare
lively few years.
Even today Stacks are a f1ght-
ing matter in some families.
Many men dislike them intense
ly. I think that well-fitted Stacks
look attractive on a good figure
when they are worn at appropri-
ate times, and are essential for
many outdoor or sports occa-
SionS.
There is one thing for sure
women who are overweight or
who have large abdomens or a
large back hipline should not
wear slacks. We really should
stay slim for comforts sake, IL
not for other reasons, so that we
can adopt the healthful and
comfortable styles Of modern
living with grace.
A Good Exercise
The following exercise is q
splendid one for SHINING the
abdomen. Lie on the floor on
your back with your legs straight
and your arms on the floor a
little out from your sides. Lift
both legs. Keep the knees stiff
and the legs together as you
swing the legs in a circle. Sweep
down toward the floor. almost
touching the floor. but not quite.
At the top of the circle your legs
should be at right angles. to your
body and don't forget the sides
of the circle. Make this as
smooth and large a circle as
possible. You may have to rest
the legs on the floor in between
the downward and upward
swings when you first begin. This
is fairly strenuous exercise.
