Elizabeth Arden’s in' newest treatment THE ARDENA BATH Away with those exira pounds you are dragging around—the bunchy hip-cushions that threaten the success of your newest frock! And the fatty padding that is settling between your shoulder blades—the “thickish” look of your upper arm—the too heavy bust—they shall be banished, too. Miss Arden’s important new freatment is attacking these undesirable accuy- mulations-of fat tissue with extraordinary success. A course of treatments will permanently eliminate as much as twenty pounds if need be. Or your weightwill be re-distributed, for the beauty of this treatment is it can be con- centrated on your “fatty spots” without affecting the rest of your figure. Butthe Ardena Bath is far more than a reducing treatment. It seems to reach down to the very roots of your nerves and free them of tenseness and fa- tigue. If you are feeling the little aches and pains that come from accu mulated poisons, itis a positive sign that you are in need of this treatment. A body massage aftéwards mainfains your feeling of well-being. And when you step on the scales you find you are appreciably lighter. The Ardena Bath Trealments are so much in demand that appointments should be made ot leost two days in advance if possible. And you should arrange first for an interview with Miss Arden’s Director of Exerci since oll of Miss Arden’s scientific body freat- ments are specially prescribed for each individual. for an appointment, plecse tele- phone Decatur 2040.
