But wher. we make the opening
statement We have only half expressed
the case. Mrs. Biggs is not only
good-looking. but she is sweet, sensi-

aware that her features are more than

simpleton. But you could never tell
from her actions nor. from her talk
that she was aware of the fact That's
where she exercises her common
sense, and that is why we can safely

pretty woman who tells you either by
her actions or by words that she is
pretty, and she knows it, somehow or
