MAxIMs FOR YOUNG GIRLS Never make
your appearance in the morning without having
first bathed brushed and arranged your hair,
and dressed yourself neatly and completely.
Keep your clothing, especially your under
clothing, in perfect order. Never let pins do
duty as buttons, or. strings take the place OF
proper bands. o , 8a9 ts..c8 i fe
Examine every garment when it comes from
the wash, and, if necessary, mend it with neat
ness and precision. Do not sew up the holes
in your stockings, as we have seen some care
less, untidy girls do, but take in broad mar
gin around the hole, be it large or small, with
cover the fracture strong as the body of the
stocking, line enough to be ornamental
Stockings mended 10 this way need darning
but very few times in the course of their ex-
istence. I'll nc o7 ses 44i,eac cstl s7 as.
Never carry coarse embroidered or lace hand
kerchiefs. Fine plain ones are much more la
dylike. ..s
Avoid open worked stockings and very fancy
slippers. Fine plain white hose and black kid
slippers, with only strap or rosette in front,
are more becoming. q -4.-...
Train yourself to useful occupation. Re
member it is wicked to waste time, and nothing
gives such an impression of vanity and absolute
Stiffness as habit of idling, and never having
anything to do.
If you are in your fathers house, take some
department of household labor upon yourself,
and part OF the sewing, and make it your
business to attend to it. Do not let call from
this idle GIRL or visit from that or an invita-
ton from the other, interfere with the perfor-
nance Of your duty. 49,. .f..,-f .... .5.,.5. r
Let your pleasure come as recreation, not
as the business of your life.
If you can, cultivate some art by which
you can gain an independent livelihood. Do
it quietly if you will, but do it. There is no
telling when or under what circumstances you
may need it.
