Show INCREASE IN WEIGHT IS LOVE'S DECREASE By BETTY BLAIR The quality of men's love whnllv depends on the quality of the man himself. When the quality u flimiy it is a question whether or not It is worth a woman's while to attempt to keep it. Dear Miss Blair: I hsve put on ae much weight theae last fsw years. I think that la one reason " why my husband has started stepping step-ping out on me. I have read a Hearts Haven number of advertisements telling how fst Is reduced In a short time. Do you recommend-? Please adviae me about taking these tablets. I want to reduce, but I don't want to do It the wrong way. Also tell ms how to keep my husband. "O-Bee-C'ity" a a e "It la dangerous or foolish to uss commercial obeatlty curee which neually promise to effect reduction without diet or exercise. Unless harmful drugs are used In the manufacture man-ufacture of such cures, they hsve no value as reducing sgents. Therefore There-fore euch products as "reducing," - soapa, creams, aslts, pills, gsrments. rollers or breads are usually useless use-less or dsngsrous. Glandular extracts, particularly those from the thyroid gland, and drugs which have a similar affect on the body should be used only under the constant guidance of a physician. physi-cian. Let your doctor advise you In any reducing plan you undertake. If you can reduce your obesity to a back seat In your consciousness -. while you advance to front seat promlnsnce common Interests with your husbsnd, you may save hla re- epect. If not hla romantic love for k you. But if yours la a husband with ae narrow vision aa to nsver see - beyond a woman's avoirdupois any-. any-. thing of her Intelligence or charm lythlng except her fat, why worry - a rout that kind of a 'fat head.'

' ANOTHER SHY ONB '. Dear Mm Blair! i am another ahy girl coming for help. The only thing I aeem j to be ahy about la being la the company ef soys and glrla of my own age. I am not shy when I am with anyone younger than myself, nor with people who are older. In fact my mother aaya I talk too much. How can I correct thia shyness of young psople who are my own age? I am IS years old and I would Ilka to have a batter time at school this coming ysar than I had last year. I hope you can help me. "LUCILLA" see Deliberately courting the situation situa-tion that makes you shy Is one way of overcoming that ahyness. Make the effort to aurround yourself frequently fre-quently with boys and glrla of your own age. Invite them to your home. Plan picnics, swimming partlss. hikes. . Try to understand that your problem prob-lem is mental and really doesn't exist except In your own mind. The young people of your own age are aa likable, aa natural, aa easy to get along with aa are thoae who are older and younger, but somehow In your mind you have get them apart aa something special, or different, Others like Yea Seek out young people whose backgound, training, ideaa, tastes and Interests are on a par with your own. Your efforts at conversation, : suggestions for good times, will then likely be beat understood and acceded ac-ceded to. It Is a good plan for one who Is ahy to join groups. Girl scouta and ether organisational work helps the I ahy one to forget herself In the In- I tercets of the whole group. It la the ability to forget yourself that rellevea you of shyness. |
