Poets Love Plain Women.

Here Is a confession Of the fact itself by
poet who writes in the Got,Ien Era of San
Francisco:
We like homely women We have al
ways liked them. We do not carry the ne
culiariiy far enough to include the hdeus
or posi- lively ugly; for since beauty and
money are the only capitol the world will
recognize in women, they are more to be
ptled than admired; but we have chival-
ric, enthusiastic regard for plain women.
We never saw one who was not modest,
unassuming, and sweet tempered, and sell
dom come across one who WAS not virtuous
and had not good heart. Made aw.re
early in life of their want of beauty bv the
sighted attentions Of the opposite sex, va
nifty and affecta,ion never take deep roo. in
their hearts and in the hope Of supplying
attractions which IA capricious nature has
denied. they cultivate the graces of the
heart instead of the person, and give to the
mind those accomplishments which the
world 50 rarely appreciates in women. but
which are more lasting, and, in the eyes of
men Of sense, more highly priced than per-
sonal beauty.
see them in the street, a. home. or in
the church, AID they are always the same;
and the smile which ever lives upon the
face is not forced there To flcinate but is
the spontaneous sunshine reflected from a
kind heart-a flower which takes root In
the soul and blooms upon the lips, inspir-
lng respect instead Of passion, emotions Of
admiration instead of feelings OF sensual re-
gard. Plain women make good wives,
good mothers. cheerful homes and happy
husbands. and we never see one but we
thank Heaven that it has kindly created
women of sense as well as beauty. for it is
indeed seldom female is found possessing
both. To homely women we therefore lift
our tile IN respect; the world will extend
the same courtesy TO beauty.

\ CANDID MIND.-There is nothing

of their praise, and all feel the power and
charm of It's influence The nan whose
