for her to find that for a worrsa
to be thoroughly charming she should
have had a good education and forgot
ten it.
For the however. who Is
meant to be human natures daily food,
no age is<norc attractive than %. She
is in he first flush of having just ar
rived. The slim promises of girlhoor
have been realized in the full beauty
of womanhood. She still has illusions.
but they are not decisions. Sh still
is innocent, but no longer ignorant.
"IIer intercourse with the opposite
sex has a certain frankness and COM
radeship that is not the least of her
charms. She seems so safe tina she Is
deadly dangerous. Statistics show that
more women marry at % than at any
other age. .
"The bachelor woman is at her best
at 30, because she is consciously
charming. She has all the advantages
with which nature originally equipped
her. and she has added to them the
frills and %furbelows of art. She has
learned TO enhance her good looks by
better dressing and to put a red shade
on the lamp and sit with her back to

to talk. and, better still. how to be a

when we speak of the attractive
ness of woman, we really mean the at
Effectiveness Of woman to man.
with men the question of when a
woman is most attractive is doubly
complicated, because it depends not
only on the woman, but on the taste OF
the man himself. Not many years ago,
if this question had been asked, the
answer would have been unhesitating-
Iy made that a woman Is most attrac-
tive between the ages of Is and 20.
Most of the heroines of classical fiction
are mere children.
at must be confessed that, with
rare exceptions, the modern man pre-
fers something more sophisticated than
sweet 16, theugh it is ~undeniable that
the intelligent woman is at her best
when sheHs in her teens. This Is easily
understood.
almost all young creatures are
beautiful, and heaven gives to even the
homeliest women a day of grace be-
tween 16 and IS, when she is pretty
with the prettiness of fresh checks ana
dewy eyes and glossy hair.
