RETAIN CHARM
' ''WHAT'S the use?" One fre- "' auently meets the married woman who greets her friends with this cry of resignation when discussing her general appearance and the state of her wardrobe. Because they have families and heavy household cares resting on them, they seem to think that they have every justification for "going to seed." This attitude of mind is fatal to all happiness. Because a woman has every minute of her day filled with hard work about the house, that is no reason why she should allow herself to become dowdy. Smart — though simple — clothes, a., carefully-tended coiffure and a ' pride m her general appearance are vital factors m preserving a woman's charm, and keep her cheerful, no matter what difficulties beset her. But to go to the wall and not care means slovenliness — mental and physical — and general discontent with life generally.
