NEATNEss IN WoMEN.-A woman may
be handsome or remarkably attractive
in various ways; but if she is not per.
sonally neat. she cannot hope to win ad-
miration. Fine clothes will not conceal
the slattern. A young woman with her
hair always in disorder and her clothes
hanging about her as if suspended
from prop, is always repulsive. Slat-
tern is written on her person from the
crown of her bead to the soles of her
feet, and if che wins husband, he will
turn out, in all probability, either fool
or drunken rufiian. The bringing up

work is drudgery; but it must be done

to have the attic windows wholly or

Of promoting personal cleanliness is by
an absolute change Of all clothing,
morning and night, wearing nothing by
night that is worn by day; and vice
