WHAT IS 1T TO BE A BELLE.
By A BELL


1t isn't enough to be pretty and modest to be a
belle. Good manners not the secret, neither Is
great beauty alone though that comes nearer than
anything else But don't you know what people
call tone in pictures? 1t isn't the color the
drawing, only, it is Il sort of something not to be
described; at least | have asked great many of
the long-hared, bad-hatted gentry who laint pic
lures, and they never agreed what it was 1t is Il
sort of mellow conn lexiOn over the whole thing,
and is as different from mere color as the bloom
upon ripe grape or plum is from the crude posi-
tive hue of the unripc fruit-or didn't you ever
notice the difference? Mo- Well then como to
Nalant You study every variety of blush and
bloom upon rpening fruit in Mr. Tuders gardens,
behind those thick-paed fences, that strain these
rough sea winds into soft zcphyrs before they
touch his trees, very much inc-tco;h comb
would trans form the rummy breath of any old
sailor on the coast into Il kind Of music before it
polluted the baby's lungs.
All this means tact. To be belle it is necessary
to be handsome. well made of great good manners,
and of consummate tact. Now, every girl can have
almost anything but the chief thing. If you are
not positively squintcyed or deformed, resolution
and Madame-we the freshest French woman
will make you handsome and of good figure. Man
you must manage for yourself. J have found
the best rule perfect kindness-I mean of course,
kindness of manner Most men little bashfu
older men with kind of silent, superior
descending air. Now if you study to take
advantage of this shyness, which makes men
dOubly senstivc-so that many clever man is
conscious of being perfect fool with women-if
you never wound them by look, or word, or
insinuation, implication, and never seem in
league, with any one man against another-why,
little udcious fatery of manner, only not of words
docs the whole business-thc man is yours
Have you noticed that very ''smart' women arc
never bellies? There are, of, course, what may bc
called cloud" young ladies from some Western
CITIES, and from New York, sometimes who smoke
and drink sherry cobbers at night, and call the
gentlemen by their Christian names, and who
always very conpicuOus; but there is the same
difference between such people and bellies that
there is between notoriety and fame.
The difficulty is that tact is not to be taught. 1t
is the sublimest sympathy constantly the alert
Its aim is to pease-positively, by saying and
doing what is agreeable; and negatively, by emitting
all allusions that not so. 'Never speak Of
hemp to 4 man whose father hanged" is the
negative way of stating tact. "All things to all
men" is the positive way. There is no need of
asking about the morality of this. l am
treating on bellies and manners not of saints and
moral philosophers.
