THE ARM.
The "upper extremity," as anatomists call it, by which they mean the arm, forearm, and hand, is so constantly brought into prominence in daily life that its care and embellishment become almost a weighty matter. If we divide the distance from the top of the shoulder to the end of the middle finger into fourteen equal parts, the length of the hand ought to equal three parts, the forearm five parts, and the arm above the elbow six parts.
While moderate exercise improves the arm by enlarging symmetrically all the muscles, it is not in good taste for a woman to display a brawny, sinewy member. It must have a roundness, one gentle curve sinking into another, which is not consistent with great muscular development. Constant and regular use will most surely tend to give a correct shape.
