A System fur Keeping Young.
"Uere is a summary, writes
Harriet Martin in the New Idea
Woman's Magazine for Septem
ber, "of a number of rules that
can keep the busiest, the most
beautiful, the plainest, the clever
est, the stupidest woman young
all her life : Have a conscious de
termination to keep sweet mental
ly; a determination to use your
brain, few or many as the case
may be, to develop them iu every
possible way in order that your
increasing mentality as the years
pass may show la your counteu
ance; have a determination, hav
iug developed your brains, so to
uso them that your words and ac
tions may be sensible and there
fore suitable to your time of life,
and that your dress may evideuce
a tineness of taste in keeping w ith
your general good judgment.
llaviug thus attended to the only
part of your lile over which you
really have the responsibility,
await events, ne'er attempt to
hurry them, remembering that
'thy fate is hurry iug after thee
The reason that so many jokes
brother, are made about woman's age lies
maiuly in he strong dependence
on her looks. Meu, vain as they
are, are vain inoreof their ftrength
than anvthinyr else. Stror.gth
does uot fade as do women
charms, such as delicato beauty
aud bleuderness of form. So the
men getting on in years have the
advantage. Just as soonas women
in their' looks face, ligure aud
dress loam how to become more
rather than loss, attractive, tho
joking will cease."
