Expressive Faces

ne most expressive face is not ths
one which writhes or agOniZes with
every sorrowful feeling, - twists and
s0ufrms with every amusing situation
III is rather the one which retains
calm exterior while the strongest emo
tons Of the soul play upon Il with
their lights and shadows.
The face should be the smooth curtain
on which the heart exhibits It's various
pictures without disturbing 1t, not the
stage which requires the shifting or
scenery for every act
The reason why so many beautlIui
faces are TO be found in a convent Is IN
a great measure due to the daily habit
of composing the features in long hours
of meditation and prayer.
Unmarried by contending emotions, the
features are gradually nodded INTO mar
mOniOus outlines
To sum up on this point--train your
features to composure and avoid all
grimaCing habits.
Because good hum0r is an Qbliging
quality. many women think they must
always be IN q laugh or a broad smile
In order to be charming
This is q grievous mistake.
