A FAM out doctor discusses the effects of ex treme wsight reducing on the skin. Frequently, he iy, "the face takes on an anemic look. Healthy color is absent and a sallow tinge gives the distinct appearance of weariness and age." He says that the loss of only a few pounds by a middle-aged person will often "make the skin of the face wrinkled and baggy." After excessive reducing this is no ticeable also on the hands. Besides, skinninessJs unbeautiful. "Essentially," says an emi nent doctor, "the curve is fundamental to beauty. . . . The really beautiful consists of that which is healthful and efficient." He goes on to warn us that "The craze for thinness is an attempt to modify the process of nature." j Women to be beautiful should be natural and healthy, and it ' is dangerous not only to good looks but to health for women, girls or men to try to standardize their weights. Eat plenty of ; varied nourishing foods. Everyone needs a certain amount of ; fat in the tissues of the body. Don't forget the value of sugar in , making other foods tasteful and enjoyable. There is no substi tute for sweetness as a food and flavor. In reducing, decrease the . quantity ":f all foods, but enjoy variety. Health is necessary to beauty. The Sugar Institute.. .
