A. re- tired, who makes his home at Wardman Can you wear the new gown:s fittingly Elizabeth Arden counsels THE ARDENA BATH @Elizabeth Arden’s newest treatment bids fair to become one of her most popular, for it reconciles figures with fashions by a simple process of elimination! Figuratively speaking, the Ardena Bath is a wonder of wonders. It sends redun- dant pounds and inches on their way. It molds the body along exquisite lines of beauty to conform with this season’s fash- ion requirements. It attacks only those por- tions of the body which need to be re- duced. As much as twenty pounds and @ proportionate number of inches can be lost in a series of treatments, if desired. Heathfully speaking, the Ardena Bath is one of Science’s most amazing discover- ies. It fraes your nerves of tenseness and fatigue. If you are feeling the little aches and pains that come from accumulated poisons, it is a positive sign that you are in need of this treatment. A body massage afterwards maintains your feeling of well- being, and when you step on the scales you find you are appreciably lighter. @ The Ardena Bath Treatments are 3o much in de- mand that appointments should be made of least two doys in advance if possible. And you should arrange first for an interview with Miss Arden's Director of Exercise, since all of Miss Arden's Scientific body Ireatments are specially pre- scribed for each individual. For an appointment please telephone Decatur 2040.
