The young matron bemoaning the fact that she is too plump to be smart, can find a great deal of solace in the phrase, “life begins at size 40.” There are so many clever ways to conceal a little avoirdupois and still retain one’s charm and dignity, that it is needless to take a diet of skimmed milk and bananas too seriously. For those young women who desire chie fashions, but find them difficult to obtain in their particular size, Lane Bryant is a veritable haven. They adapt the smartest regular fashions into slenderizing models which comfortably fit the stouter figure. Their clothes can make one look youthful without being flapperish, and imbue you with a sophisticated charm, eliminating the undesirable dowager-ish effect.

Another serious problem, that of the irregular full form, is also dealt with successfully. A tall woman wearing a size 40 will receive a completely different dress from her shorter sister of the same size, although the style may be identical. The construction of the gown has been worked along different lines for these two individual figures. It would be a dull world indeed if everybody were the same size and shape, so be wise, accept this fact and go along wisely making the best of your good points and allowing Lane Bryant to aid you in disguising the others.

In all the cosmos, from the be ginning of time to eternity itself, there is nothing more important to a lady than her face. Don’t let superfluous hair mar your right to beauty. If you are troubled by superfluous hair, write me for an illustrated booklet on how to remove it safely and forever.

It must be Spring, for brides and bridesmaids are coming in droves to McCreery’s haven for trousseau shoppers. Every showcase has been utilized for the bridal display, the trousseau, the home, silver, glassware and China. Throughout the entire store all display cases point to the coming brides of America and their needs, and the allure of it is so great that one’s resistance to marriage and the month of June becomes almost nil.

If Spring has not as yet brought a song to your heart then drop in at any reputable dealer and listen to The Capehart Phonograph or Radio. You’ll hear the music of the angels. These instruments with their amazing tone fidelity reproduce a full range of harmonies or over-tones with a mellowness and color which clearly distinguishes true music. A Phonograph takes on a new significance with the Capehart record changer. It is automatic and continuous in its operation and plays full symphonies. operas and albums of recorded music in their correct sequence No manual attention whatever is required. They come in lovely cabinets and each and every style is a truly fine piece of furniture which will harmonize with the simplest or most luxurious setting
