Good Looks.

Of course, you would like to have them, and you* can quite well acquire them. Here is the recipe; if you will duly follow it, you will be successful, and the world will be the brighter for your efforts in a dull and anxious time.

When a girl, however pretty, is dull or bored, her expression, if not cross, is decidedly heavy. The light has gone out of her face, as it were; and she is at her worst.

Give a plain girl good news, or interest her keenly, and her sudden, good looks will amaze you. She can appear almost lovely. Good-temper, too, is something that lightens one's face ; it keeps the corners of the mouth up instead of down—no mean beauty, this—and it makes a plain face attractive.

On the whole, beauty of expression, vivacity of eye and change of feature — ''lighting up," as I have called it—is the most enduring aid to good looks a girl can have. And it is one she can acquire at no cost at all.
