to ment the woman who will admit that she is pleased with her hips.
If you yourself are one of the many thousands who hanker to reduce from waist to knees, the best thing is to give yourself a combined treat- ment of exercise and reducing lotion.

Sland erect, heels about two inches apart, arms out at shoulder height. Swing the right arm downwards until the fingera touch the back of the left knee, then swing the left arm downwards until the fingers, touch the back of the right knee. Continue for two or three minutes.

This is a strenuous exercise and should only be undertaken by women who are under 30 years of age and sound in wind and limb.
