 "Yes, of course she is pretty-but she's an awful flat !" remarked an hon. est college boy of a certain young lady who felt that good looks excused her from any attempt at intelligent con- versation.
 Portraits of women who, as history tells us, have ruled the world by their charm, and swayed the destinies of empires, reveal the fact that they have rarely been beautiful in the accepted sense of that term. Cleopatra, Mary of Scotland, as well as plenty of more modern charmers, have not been women whose chief appeal was to the eye. They have. influenced their times through the keenness of their minds, their personal magnetism, and their power of being agreeable.
