She also writes, "We are all
equipped by nature to receive
and assimilate sensory exper
iences, have a sure touch and
have space reactions. So every
man can become a musician,
painter, sculptor, or architect,
in the sense that In as much as
he can speak, he is a speaker.
What he produces may not be
great art but it affords him
great satisfaction and releases
energy for better living and

MIX OR MATCH? ; When It
comps to clothes we sometimes
"mix" . 1 . sometimes "match."
But when It comes to fragrance,
every on. should be . "match
mater." By that I mean every
woman should wear matching
perfume and cologne ... It's
really the only proper way to
wear fragrance. Want to try
it? I suggest Prince Matcha
