Attractive Women.
It is the woman that has the courage to be herself who attracts. Originals are so much more desirable than copies, no matter how accurate the copy may be. Let every woman dare to be herself, develop her own individuality, not blindly copy some other woman, whom, it may be, her husband happens to admire. Let her think for herself, act for herself, and express her own honest opinions. Individuality, when combined with that nameless something called manner, is the most potent weapon in the possession of the sex. A good worn in’s laugh is better than medicine. A well-told story is as welcome as a sunbeam in a sick room. The world is too busy to care for your ills and sorrows Don't continually cry Tears do well enough in novels, but they are not desirable in real life.
