FASCINATION.

WHT SO MANY LADIES WHO SHOULD BE ATTRACTIVE FAIL TO PLEASE—A BIULrLIANT WOMAN REVEALS THE SECRET. " Dress is everything!" " Nonsense I No beautiful woman ever was or ever will be improved by a dress, 110 matter how artistic it may bo made."

The speakers wore two lady reporters for society papers. They had attended balls, receptions, and parties for years. They had studied the effects of costumes, the lines of beauty, and had faithfully written upon them in the papers they represented. They wero masters in tlioir art, and yet they dißered, " You cannot prove your assertion by any lady of high standing and authority," . " I can," replied her companion, " within two days I will show yon an interview with the leading woman on dress in America." And tho two friends parted. Last Wednesday they met at the same place, when, producing a neatly written manuscript, the lady read the following remarkable interview

"Mrs Annie Jennes Miller is the acknowledged authority in America upon the subject of dress. An attractive woman herself, sho knows how to render other women attractive in the highest degree, 1 (ought an interview, it was granted, and I give you tho results:—

'"Do you think, Mrs Miller, that women are made more attractive by their dress ?'

That depends upon what you mean by attractive.'

111 Flensing, fascinating if you choose—more charming to men than other women,'

" 1 A simply beautiful waman is seldom attractive; a stupid one nover, It is the soul, the life, the brilliancy, which render women attractive.'

" 1 I'll admit that, but what makes women brilliant ?'

" 'Vivacity,brightness, and good health, Did yon ever see a sickly woman ablo to entertain a dinner party of bright people? On the other hand, did you over know a cultivated and refined woman, overflowing with animal life and spiiits, who was not fascinating ?' " 1 So you believe perfect health is the secret ot fascination, do you ?' "' certainly. Artistic dress-

ing is proper, line ouivea attractive, but life such as it comes from healthy, throbbing blood is alone fascinating. It is a great mistake, however, to think that health is preserved by dress alone. Women must have proper food, freedom from care, and a good friend in need,'

"' What do you mean by that 1' "' Someassistance, physically. All women feel depressed at times, and all pleasure seems gone out of life. On all Bucb occasions, and, indeed, whenever blue or worn out, she needs help, I know, because I have been in that condition myself.' "' And what do you do when in that condition 1'

"One thing, ami one thing only. I am assisted by tbe beat friend that any woman ever had. Itis Warner's Safe Cure. I mean it, and I have good reason to speak us I do, You think I am a perfectly healthy woman; so I am, but I take several bottles of this great oure every season, just as I take additional care in tho selection of tonicigifing food. As you know there an certain times whan every woman needs assistance. At such times, and belore such times, there is, so far as I know, but one thing that can help, and that is the great oure I have named," "I bade Mrs Miller a reluctant good-bye, for I felt that I had uiet a woman who knew women—what their trials and troubles were, and what they required,"—Ladies' llome.
