Extract from The essay called Il Wissq"
There IL no great need OF enforcing on an
unmarried lady the necessity Of heing a
greeablc nor is there any great AT reeli-
site inn youthful beauty to please. Nature
has multiplied attractions round her, youth
~ III itself attractive. The freshness OF
budding beauty needs 40 felgncd aid to sci
II oil II pleascs merely because IL il fresh,
budding aud beautiful. But il is for the
married state that II woman needs the most
instruction, and in which she should i..
most on her guard Ia maintain the powers
oi pleasing. No woman ran expect Ia bs.
to her husband all that lac fancicd her when
he was her lover. Men are always doom
"d 10 be dupcd not so much by the arts Of
me sex, as by their own imaginatons. -

come wife. One great thing undoubted-
" was the ehariness of herself and conduct
which IA unmarried female always observes.
sAie should malntan the niceness and re-
serve IN Der person and habits, and cntea-
'or still Ia preserve freshness and a yir-
Gun delicaey IN the eyes of her mlsband.-
She should remember thai the province OF

grateful being in love: bounty loses instead
of winning him. The secret of n woman's
power does not consist so muclr in giving
