The first is full OF wonderful
sympathy. Her husband, map
over burdened With heavy rcspon-
sibilities, can turn TO her ut any
moment for perfect understanding
and rest.
The second has cultivated her
mind until it matches that of her
husband in brilliancy, and be tells
me that there is 20 one with whom,
he SO much enjoys n discussion or
intellectual controversy as his OVID
plain. middle-aged wife.
No, dear women, If you fancy
yourselves uDattraetive, the last
thing you must do is to admit il
glumly, aud say almost audibIy
TO every man who approaches you.
"Ob, I'm a poor thing. and it's
very good of you to speak to me
Just wait until I have tucked my
feet out of sight, and please don Z
criticise my nose!'
Once you learn to forget your
self and become thoroughly inter
ested in other people, it will never
occur to you TO remember your
plaiupess, or clumsiness, or color,
lcssness-ard the "otber people
will forget them, too.
A pretty, charming and popular
friend Of mine, who seems TO
possess the secret of eternal youth,
confessed to ME lately In an e1pan'
sive moment that until we'll on IN
her tweuties she was most unin'
tercstlng and unbeautiful girl.
This distressed her very much.
for she was great lover OF
beauty, and longed for the power
OF giving pleasure 20 others that
she herself. gained from the sight
of beautiful persons and things.
At last she took herself to. task
severely, and having great belief
In the power Of mind over mat.
ter, determined to make herself
goodlooking.
She took pains with her hair, and
complexion, learned how to dres.
becomiugly, aud took plenty Of
exercise in order to remedy the
defects of her figure.
Further, and more important
than this, she filled her mind with
visions of lovelipess-pictures,
poetry. music-and the yet greater
natural beauty OF woods and
streams and green bclds auo
flowers. Aud most important OF
all, she learned to forget herselt IN
feeling FOR the JOYS and sorrows OF
others,
Now, in her early middle age
she is, as I said, a charming, beau
tiful, and, above all, sympathetic
woman.

Hope for the Plain

THERE is q. girl reader of mine
u who was one of my earliest
correspondents, and still writes to
me frequently, under varying pen
names, but / always recognize the
characteristic handwriting. She is
a girl with a grievance and wishes
me to give my opinion on a. point

Still, as there are, without
doubt, many women lsboripg under
the same frctting difficulty, and

she walks with slight limp-and

Yesterday I was walking home,

and passed a young man and woln-

light of pure and sincere affec-
ton.
The girl was very lame--and pei
