From the health standpoint rcpose

how jerkiness, nervous unrest and

nervous, uncouth motions Of face,

The reposeful girl need not be an
icicle of the "splendidly null' type;
she will not adopt a frozen mask-like

The well-bred girl knows that the
less she is in evidence physically and

her personality the more desirable II
is. Therefore, she does nothing to at
