Notes and
Comment
Attractive Women.
OF Interest TO Women Readers

Attractive Women.
Most parents are fond of inculcat-
ing in the minds Of children the idea
that beauty Is undesirable. and that II
is really a snare to the possessor.
And yet, in spite Of all this. every
body wants 10 be beautiful. The de
sire begins with life. and ends only
with death--if, indeed, II ever ends.
Almost the first thing the little girl
will do. after she is able 10 run alone.
will be TO climb into a chair and sur
Yey herself 10 the looking glass.
You may preach 10 her till you sre
hoarse that beauty is only skin deep
and that pretty dresses are not better
than plain ones. and she will listen TO
you perhaps. but when she gets a
new ribbon, or a hat with a bright
feather in it, she will strut like
peacock. and look down from the gu
preme height of satisfaction upon lit
tie Sally Smith, whose hat does not
show feather.
Why is It? Because every human
being is born with The desire TO be
beautiful. All who have any self re-
spect try to be beautiful They will
do almost anything which promises
to improve their appearance.
The blooming young girl will sleep
with fresh beefsteak on her cheeks
to increase her bloom. and the thin
haired belle will suffer year after
year, every night. the torture OF curl
papers for the sake of looking more
attractive.
No matter how old and staid. and
sober minded the woman Is, she al
ways wants to improve her looks.
Some Of the grandmothers Of today
have their little private boxes OF
pearl powder and rouge; and the
grandfathers sport sets OF worries and
dye their gray hair and whitened
mustaches, and pad their attenuated
forms, just as if they had not reached
the age OF the lean ana sllppered pan
taloon.
Women will risk their lives by ar
senic eating: they will lay themselves
liable to paralysis from the use Of
lead powder; they will invite blind
ness with belladonna on the eyelids,
they will give consumption a cordial
welcome by neglecting ordinary pre-
cautions; they will do score OF
things of the same description. and
for what? Why, TO be beautiful.
1t is perfectly right and proper that
every one should strive to look as
we'll as possible-where the health,
physical or moral. Is not in danger
of being injured by the means en-
ployed.
But natural beauty may be attained
without the aid OF artificial appliances
We believe that cleanliness, open air
exercise, and kindness practiced to
ward all, will do much toward making
plain face attractive,
