How to be Beautiful.

To be beautiful we must cultivate tho
mind and develop the heart in the highest
degree.
We must feed the mind by reading and
meditation until the intellectual fire burns
with steady flame, irradiating the face
with its pure brilliancy and suffusipg the
countenance with calm and holy light
wc must fill the brain with holy thoughts,
and live, rs it were, in an atmosphere of
grand ideas which VIII lift us up above
the belittling cares of earth.
We must cherish every kind impulse
and generous disposition, making love the
''uling passion of the heart, the ordering
principle and inspiring motive of life.
The mors kindness the more beauty; the
more love the more loneliness.
We must put n great organizing and en-
nobling purpose into the will, and concen-
trate our thoughts and affections upon the
accomplishment of it, until enthusiasm
wells up in the heart, suffusing the coun-
tenance and rebuilding the body on its
own divine plan.
And this is the beauty that is abiding.
IIcrc physical good looks fade with the
years, bleach out with sickness, and yield
TO the slow decay of mortality. But the
hcauty that has its origin in kind disposi
lions and noble purposes and great
Thoughts outlasts youth and maturity, ana
increases with age, and like the lucious
peach that comes to us in autumn ripe
ness, covered with the delicate flush Of
purple and crimson, is never so beautiful
10 when waiting TO be plucked by the
gardeners hand, silently witnessing to tho
full, rich perfection time works out.
