BEAUTY AND GOODNESS.

Every woman would like to be clever
and beautiful. but those qualities are
not half as important as goodness.
The noblest and best women on earth
are the women who are doing their
duty by their children. "A mother Is
a mother still, the hottest thing on
earth
But IL you want to grow into the
kind of women who will make good
mothers, you must lead pure lives, you
must keep your minds clean and your
hearts pure and good.
Motherhood Is the greatest of all ca
reers open to women. No matter what
your talents or gifts. you can never be
anything finer or better than good
mother, says The New York Times.
Remember that, and IL you are
tempted to do wrong. stop and think.
rs this the kind Of thing that is GO
ing to help me to be good woman
or a failure?" .,..
Your own heart and sense will an
swer the question truthfully. never
fear.
