tribute in n wife. He says: “Men select their wives not for their amia- bilily‘, nor their intelligence, nor because they are good cooks and house- keepers, but strictly on their looks. Hence it is every mothers duty to tench her daughters to be beautiful above everything else, for the most beau- ‘liful woman is always the most loved. No man will over divorce a really beautiful wife, and no wlic will ever have to worry about losing the love of her husband if she is beautiful. This is the opinion of all men, both married and single.”

Well, did you ever? I have suspected for a long time that not every mun had been bitten by Solomon's dog, but I had no idea that as a sex they selected their wives for their complexions in- stead of their heads and their hearts. Nor do I ' even now believe that it is the general practice among men, for my daily observation shows me thousands upon thousands

No one will deny that the ﬁrst thing about a woman that attracts a man's attention is her looks. Hence beauty is of grout value as a come- on, and undeniably the good-lockers gct the most dates and cut-ins at dances and most of the attentions that are without intensions from men.

0f course, there are women who are beautiful, who are intelligent, and who are all that is ﬁne and generous, but these are rare. Nature is fairer than we think and generally when she is ovarlavish in adorning the outside of a woman she sklmps on the interior furnishings. Besides, the beauty is usually spoiled in the rearing.
