F-unk LesIes LafieT Jo4T1aF.
To be pratty is the great object OF almost
every living woman, even those who lecture
upon the improperly Of doing 50. Beautiful
women spend great deal Of thought upon
their own charms, aud homely women grow
homely through fretting because they are not
handsome. Men, at least while they are young.
are very like women in this respect, though
they hide their feelings better.
There is one comfort to the homely one, how
ever. After you come to know people very in
timately, you do not know whether they are
pretty Or not. Their "ways" make an i'm pres
siun On you; but not their noses and cars, their
eyes and mouths. In time, the soul expresses
itself to you, and it is that which you see
Auian who has been married twenty years
scarcely knows what his wife looks like. He

is bewitching little blonde, with soft blue eyes,
