The Homely Girl.
The homely girl should be pleased st
the attention that awe la receiving tress
the press In recent years; It, at least,
shows a recognlsatlon of hsr problem
Some of the writers on this subject
seem to think that aha la perennially
In need of encouragement to enable Jter
to endure life; they think that her oaae
la hopeless and that all that oan be
dona for the unfortunate reature la
to tell "her that beauty la only skin
deep anyway and that goodness Is Its
own reward. The other claas of wrttere
take a more hopeful view In that they
maintain that the homeliest gin has
her good points and urge the girl to
find these good polnta and cultivate
them, not only that but to make her
ugllnees so attrsctlve that ahe will be
Judged a beauty. Someway i think
that the latter get' of writers sre much
better liked by the girls In question,
To be told that beauty is only skin
deep lent very4comfort1ng after all a
pink and white complexion le charm
ing and. we long for this special attrib
ute and Ikoartd much rather be told how
to obtain ttethan the ract that aa It ts
only skin deep tt Is worthless wc know
better. My first piece of advice to
the so-called homely girl Is don't be
one. Adopt the beauty attitude. It hae
been proven that the mind has a great
Influence over our condition, and al
though I hardly believe that merely
thinking beauty will make a person a
Helen of Troy, still letting our mind
dwell on our good points and at the
same time working to make ourselves
attractive will do wanders. That la
usually one of the fauita of the homely
girl; ahe doesn't take enough pains
with her appearance. Have you ever
noticed how long moat pretty girl
take to dress and how particular they
are about the little details of drees''
I think thatt the homely girl would do
well to copy some of the graces and
even affectations of her pretty sister.
Study the face, dispassionately and crit
ically, and find the good points; culti
vate the way of holding the head that
Is most effective, dress the hair so that
tt will make an effective frame to the
faee. Homely girls, even more than
pretty ones, should sdopt art IndrVtdunl
style of dress, and usually It will be
found that somewhat large drooping
hats and soft fluffy things ere most be
coming. Endeavor to keep the hands
soft snd white snd always have the
nails welt manicured, as a pretty hand
will he conpensstlon for a plain face.
Many girls, however need a word of
advice In regard to the use of beauti
ftere. Dont use first one than another
without waiting to see what (he effect
will be, as you will be sure to Injure
the skin sooner or later.

Good and Bad Charity.
Many women think that all charity

out thought of the ef feat "en the reclpl-
Heve you ever looked dVsr a hex sent
from some wealthy women to a poverty
stricken family? In the box will be

things aa far as the people they are
intended for are concerned; soiled party

soiled end bedraggled and wholly In
appropriate for the woman who takes
in washing who Is the recipient. Some
people give sympathy In the same un
thinking way. To sympathise In auch a
way that you make a person feel that
their case is hopeless Is a crime. Sym
pathy should mean encouragement, er
at least endurance. True charity
means to help the person to help him
self, not to make people feel dependent
and really deprive them of the ambi
tion to make an effort for themselves,
and yet .that la exactly what many
women do and then settle back with
a comfortable feeling of duty well per
formed and expect their "poor people,"
aa they call them, to be grateful forthe
rest ef their Uvea. If, Instead of sel
fish charity that thinks only of self
immolation, women would atudy the
question of best methods of helping the
poor to help themselves; to try anef
make them more Independent, not more
dependent, then their work would In
