style Versus Beauty.

Handsome is as handsome does" Is
q good old fashioned axiom, and beauty
Of soul is a fine thing; so Is being good
hearted. Many Il plain looking
has found consolation in the w latter
attributes. In ancient Greece there
were two kinds Of women, the Venuses
and the MinervaS. When Venus frOwn-
ed on one consolation was sought in
Minerva. One is~ always a Minerva
a porch rocker, calm, o and serene
in the knowledge that her hair won't
get out Of curl. her complexion won't
blow Off and she doesn't have to talk
just a smile, and everybody basks in it.
Minerva works hard. her hair is limp,
her nose is shiny. and she can't keep
cool because she engages in heated ar
guments. Venus marries the million
aire and rides in Il chaise; Minerva
marries the professor and darns stock
ings. What a giddy world it would be
if women were all Venuses, for it is I'M
doubtedly the Minervas who are the
balance wheel Of society.
In modern days the next best thing
to being a Venus. if n cannot be a
Minerva, Is to be stylish.
What Is this seemingly indefinable
thing called style? What is it that diff
ferentiates one oma from another?
Why is it that one woman will be styl-
ish and the other dowdy. though gown
ed in the same manner? Why will a
pretty woman often pale into insignif-
canoe beside her palmer sister? One of
the first things when the desire is born
to be stylish or smart looking, as the
English say, is to feel stylish. This is
easier than to feel beautiful, as is &C.
%casionally advocated. The feeling that
one has style is bracing. Unconsciously
the body straightens, the head goes up
and the step becomes smarter and
brisker.
Another point to consider in this
achievement Is the poise Of the body.
She who sinks along and shuf1es her
feet will never attain the desired end,
If style be her desire. Much has been
accomplished when onc you have
thrown your shoulders back, your head
up and acquired a smart step, for the
proper carriage and walk are the foun-
dalton Of style.
