Three Paragraphs about Women
WHEN LADIES SHOULD BE LOOKED "A writer IN
the Atlantic Monthly THUS enlightens the bellies OF the
street concerning the nalienable rights of men to
look at their pretty faces;
There arc some very pretty. but unhapIiy very /
ill-bred women, who don't understand the Jaws q
the road with regard 10 handsome faces. Nature |
and custom would no doubt agree IN concedlng 10 /
males rit of az least two distinct looks at every
coulelv female cOuntenance, without any ntracuOn
of te 1ules of courtesy or the sentiment OF respect
The first look is necessary to define the person OF
the individual one meets 50 as to avoid her IN pass

glance is sufficient apology for a second-not pro-
longed and impeVtinent stare, but an approaching
HOMAGE of the eyes, such a stranger may molten
siyelv Weld TO a passing image 1t IS astonishing
how mOrbidly sensitive some vulgar beauties are 10
the SLIGHTEST demonstration of this kind When
lady walks the streets she leaves her vIrtuous M
Jignation couptenance at home; she knows well
enough that the street is picture gallery, where
Dretty faces framed in pretty bOnnets are meant 10
be SEEN and everybody has a right to see them

ting and refined In one thing they differ from our
Indian women they look one full in the lace: ana
it is difficulty to Withstand their chances An lnul-
an maid, when a warrior approaches Dends het
head like dropping leaf. 1t Is only IN the deepest
! recesses when no others are near, that hef iO'Sr

portion of society, credit is getting to be substitute
for labor. and hundreds are eagerly resortng to /
