The contempt which Is often affected
for personal beauty Is not only ir-
rational. but impiou.. 1t has been
truly remarked that personal beauty
is Of a higher kind than that OF 4
star. an idol or a flower. on which tho
most religious think 1t decorous to
bestow their admiration. and then sane
tuned by the presence OF moral excel
lence and radiant with intelligence. it
is undoubtedly the most admirable of
all the works OF the bencficent and all
wise Creator. The pleasure which "
affords the rational mind Is entirely
dependent upon the happy mixture OF
internal or spiritual beauty with CT
ternal or physical beauty.
The human features. however. perfect.
~ destitute OF Intelligence, excite any
thing but admiration. Tho effect Of
beauty should elevate tho mind and IL
Is only when IL Is associated with the
sensuous mind OF the observer that IL
ca IN possibly have AN opposite tendency.
The mind may live In a reverie Of
ideal beauty forever: IL may even raise
its objects to the altar OF it's worship
but II is far different with mere per
sonal beauty as II exists I'm living sub
jects. The eve soon becomes accus-
| toned to what it looks upon. be 1t plain
or fair. But the spiritual expression
the smile. the amiable disposition. tho
| readiness To forgive and forget an
noyances, and the expression of q gen
erous heart. what can compensate for
the lack of these?
II we would Insure the permanenco
of mutual admiration and friendship
We must seek II III tho depth % the
heart, where moral beauty Is dominant
over intellectual beauty, and where
both of these light up the features
n he3 f,1
holy and enchanting expression of in
telligence. sympathy and virtue.
This happy union OF mind and moral
! excellence. when associated with ma
terial beauty, not merely compels ad-
miration. but eNerts power almost
amounting To Fascination. 1t Is that
condition in which humanity the most
approaches the divine.
Remember: Whatever expands the
mind and elevates the taste increases
the facility with which we realize the
beautiful.
