HE object of any given exercise is to acquire properly developed and well-controlled muscles. If the muscles of any part are under-developed and flabby, then the cxcreiso recommended is designed to develop them.
If, on the other hand, the part needing exercise is burdened with superfluous fat, the muscles will also be flabby, so that the probability is that the sald exercise will
have a strengthening effect on the part at the same time as getting rid of the surplus fat. When a part is thin and scraggy, it does help to rub in some kind of tissue oll either before or after doing the daily routine exer- ci8o. When trying to reduce unwanted fat, reducing lotions er soaps will also help the good
work done by the exercise,

INFORTUNATELY, very few women carry their heads well in these days. This is an art that was considered more important in Edwardian times than it is now. If you wish to know how it as acquired, the old-fashioned recipe is to walk round the room in low-heeled shoes with a heavy book on your head. When you have learnt how to balance two heavy books, one piled on the top of the other on the top of your head, and you can walk for five minutes without letting them falt, you will have the satisfaction that you have acquired the art of carfying your head proudly.
FOR rolls of fat over the shoulder-blades the following exercise ja recommended. Stand erect, lift your arms until your elbows are al shoulder height, and, keeping them this way, clench your right flat into the palm of your left hand and press as far as possible to the right and as far as possible to the left. Do this for five minutes night and morning.
If the arms are too thin, smear them with tissue oll. Rub this in briskly for two or three minutes with a rubber nail-brush and do the follow- ing exercise. Hold the right arm out straight in front of the body, clench the fist tightly, and rotate the fist, turning it from the wrist, as slowly and firmly as you possibly can, first right and then left. Do this for two or Follow this three minutes and then repeat the exercise with the left arm. with both arms stretched out at shoulder height, and twirl them from the shoulders, 20 times backwards and then 20 times forward.
For fat and fabby arms this exercise should be followed by dabbing with a reducing vinegar on a pad of cotton wool. For big, muscular arms the only hope is one of the exercise rollers and a reducing lotion.
