For the Clarion
Mr. EDITOR ~ observed in your
paper Of January 23d an article emit
tiled, "a beautiful woman and, in
your issue of February 10th another
article in the form of a reply 'describ-
ing what might be called "a model
man" J.. 80 .. p" d.. . :: ....'...-
& Now, I intend to reply to both
those articles and will commence by
saying thai | fully indorse both of
i them in the main, but "circumstan-
ces alters cases" sometimes, and | like
to see fair play all round.
l vii begin with what co. says
about beautiful wo,cen. indorss all
he says, but if we would always stay
at home, AS he hints nobody but our
husbands or beaux would see cur
charms, and | don deny but that we
do try to display them as much as
possible, and there is where so much
Of our precious time goes. Besides, if
we would always stay at home we
never would hear any news, for our
husbands never tell us anything and
our beaux talk nothing but nonsense.
Nor do agree with that old heath
en- who said that beauty unadorned
is adorned the most" We do like
new dresses, new styles, new bonnets,
new hats &c. and what is the use Of
having them if we don't put them on
and parade curse yes all over town to
show them but, as | said before !
fully udorse "C's' idea Of a beautiful
woman, only l don't see why a beau.
l!(ul Won az can put on a new dress
or now bonnet and paint herself up
little, and take walk down street,
aud perhaps drop in to see few
friends and talk few houvs couf1en.
TALLY: and do lille shopping,
Whether she wants to buy anything or
not, it nobody's business, and tl.en
go home nicely and Quietly, an take
Oft her things. and do up Ter work in
few minutes, without some body hav
Ing some remar ks to make Il bout it,
| also agres'with the aNth:r Of the
second article as to what constitutes
"A model man. Those are M, sen.
tlments exactly, but | don't see why
the writer does not make some dis
examinations, sutinS individual cases
for instance, 1t is necessary to some
persons health or personal comfort,
to wear heavy mustaches, or side
whiskers," and who has not admired
