charm plus physical beauty but,
since physical perfection is not al
ways possible and a high develop
ment of charm is within the reach
OF all, the wise woman concen-
trates her energies on the cul-
tivation of charming dress, man
ner and spirit.
After all, what the woman in
search Of beauty wants is TO at
tract other individuals to her and
to keep them within her circle.
Charm brings this result, with the
additional merit of holding those
people within the circle for a far
longer time than al the power Of
physical beauty alone.
All Of which leads one, eventu-
ally, TO ponder over the Sumner

} the fewest and best chosen words

Simplify your language. That

more to come, that perhaps you are

Create interest in what you
