Although no applications can be received after that date, appoint- ments to be welghed and measured will be granted for a period of days suffictent to register every appli- cant. But your application must reach The Evening World not later than the last mail next Saturday. For one whole week now I have been receiving applicants by appointment at the private suite of offices The Evening World has opened for that pur- pose. Every day from 10 A. M. to 6 P. M. I have met, welghed and measured a steady stream of contestants y whose appointments were arranged at five-minute . aanire FuaLoue intervals. Never before have I seen such eager in- terest taken in any contest which I have conducted or of which I have had intimate knowledge. ‘And the reason for this interest ts easily understood. Never before has a contest presented an opportunity so close to every woman's secret desire. Few women have perfect figures, but every woman desires one, Asd Because this contest has for its object helping to fulfil that desire ft is bound to arouse wide interest. And I am glad to welcome so many contestants who apply, the more ijon causes this, Deep breathing will weager I will be to receive Sena el remedy this condition also, ‘would like to feel that throug’ | . soaatet and the lessons which I have Pedi ee Tas Bathe the Prepared for it I have helped a8 many | the corn, ‘Then pare tt With a sharp ‘women as I possibly could to apa | pete knife. and place at mul figures and their health, for | nf absorbe a urate ven these things have been accom- } If necessary, FATTENING FOODS—F.
