Td Fatten the Neck
F. R. To make the throat full and
round, the best exercise Is to bend the

Then bend the head as far backward as
possible. Sitting erect in a chair, bend
the head from one side to th other, and
then roll the bead to the right, left and
forward. Another good position is to let
the arms hang loosely at the sides.
Raise the shoulders as high as possible,
then forward, down and backward until
a circle Is formed. Continue this for a
time and then reverse th motion. Do
this every day for five or ten minutes.
Again, stand perfectly erect with the.
arms at the sides, lift them up vertical
ly, inflating the .Jungs as the arms as
cend. At the same time rise up on th
tips of your toes and throw your head
back, at th same time touching th
backs of th hands overhead. As the

proper consistency is secured. Spread
over the hairy surface, and allow to
remain for from on to five minutes,

and th susceptibility of th skin;
then scrap off with a blunt blade
a paper knife, for example. It ahould
be removed, as In every case with a

plied to prevent irritation.
