Beauty Chats
Beauty In Mannerisms

THAT OLD ADAGE we all heard so
often when we were children,
Beauty is as beauty does" like
most old-fashioned advice, holds
good for every day of our lives. A
beautifully formed woman, with the
features of a veritable Venus, would
never gain a reputation for pretti-
ness if she were rude. loud voiced. or
if, for instance, she hitched along in
stead Of walking smoothly.
Yet hundreds Of women whose
beauty is not so great that they dare
take liberties with it, never try to
cultivate themselves into anything
better than they are at the moment,
and never stop to consider how
their mannerisms affect those they
meet The woman with the monde
script features will be called Charm
ing" if she has a pretty greeting. a
cordial handshake, q nice voice, the
one with the stunning features will
be dubbed 'gawky' If she possesses
none Of these attributes.
Take the meeting of a new person
much OF your reputation with peo-
pie depends upon their first impress
sion Of you, you know. Do YOU
shake hands well. the hand neither
too high nor too low. the clasp firm
and friendly? Have you some
pretty phrase of greeting at your
tongues end? Do you make your
new acquaintance feel at his ease
with you at once? Have you the
genuine I'm glad to meet your
smile? If you have all Of these. you
will be thought a charming friend.
A stih nod, limp. moist hand. q
mumbied phrase that might be trans
lated any way. viii Tepel whoever is
introduced to you. Keep in mind
that old-iashiOned adage-'fBeauty is
as beauty does"-and act in as
