DOES BEAUTY WIN LoVE7
Nought under heaven so strongly doth al
lure

sess,
AS beauty's lovely bait

If nine out of ten women were asked
what gifts of the gods they craved
most they would answer unhesitating-
ly, Love, a happy heart and a con-
tented home" The tenth woman would
declare she would ask for beauty only,
for with that one power she could
win all the rest.
While it is undeniably true that the
beautiful woman arouses the admira-
ton of men it is not true that she can
touch the love chord in every mascu-
line heart at will. Every woman should
make the best appearance possible. No
one thanks her for looking her worst.
If she sees she looks better in q pic
ture hat than in poke bonnet why
persist in the bonnet to make herself
more unhandsOme than nature intend
ed her to be!
1t is the trick very young girls resort

When q girl in her teens gets herself
up by the liberal use of powder and
rouge to look like wax figure in a
hairdesser's window, she does not go
to all that bother to excite the won
der Of other girls. No, she does it
with the fixed purpose of winning the
admiration Of the young men and
catching a beau.
It's a great pity these bepowdered
girls cannot see themselves as others
see them. Any man with but one eye
or half an eye in his head can see
paint on q girls face as far off as she
comes within range of his vision. The
