less human than their brunette
sisters.
It is well, however, for blondes
to make the most Of the exquisite
coloring nature has given that
arouses such devout eadmira tson.
A blonde can be either the most
washed-out, colorless, faded, half
alive looking creature in the world
or she can be an exquisite gym
phony Of glowing color that comes
and goes with every motion.
All depends on whether she
makes the most Of her beauty by
keeping her health - top.notch,
by sensibly caring for appearance
and by dressing such q way az
to frame her loneliness perfectly.
You will, II you are wise

Of blue, gold. rose, gray and

A spring crocus with its heart
Of pale gold, lavender and white
