ATTRACTION.
Antoine Berrager, the French adven cate, said, “There are no ugly women; only there are women who do not know how to look beautiful. Such a:s these should! face the facts, show * strong will, leam to cultivate theii beauty and theii own powers of attration” (writes the, Hon. Mrs Fitzroy Stewart in the London “Daily Mail.”) A plain face and figure may often be redeemed by some other charm of appearance. Good eyes, a fine brow, a clear skin, or a smart figure may do much to save the situation. Pretty soft hair, either fair or dark, will go far to atone for want of perfect tures. Some faces, however, seem to be hopeless in their crude lines and uncouth plainness, yet their owners are a social success and seem to attract men right and left in a marvellous manner. Now what is. the secret of this omnipotence? Brains count for much; so does charm of manner, a winning smile, a soft voice, and—second to none-—the art of dress and personal decoration. Also .a plain woman is apl to have better manners than a beauty, she is less seft:-assertive, and often shows a more friendly spirit toward others. This counts for much, arid helps out her lack of attraction.
