woman needs no diamonds, no silks or
satins; her brilliant face outshines diamonds and her form is beautiful in
calico.
2. FALSE BEAUTIFIERS.--Man's love of female beauty surpasses all other
love, and whatever artificial means are used to beautify, to a certain
extent are falsehoods which lead to distrust or dislike. Artificial beauty
is always an imitation, and never can come into competition with the
genuine. No art can successfully imitate nature.
3. TRUE KIND OF BEAUTY.--Facial beauty is only skin-deep. A beautiful form,
a graceful figure, graceful movements and a kind heart are the strongest
charms in the perfection of female beauty. A brilliant face always
outshines what may be called a pretty face, for intelligence is that
queenly grace which crowns woman's influence over men. Good looks and good

charming as well {130} as beautiful, for a charming girl will never become
a charmless wife.
4. A GOOD FEMALE BODY.--No weakly, poor-bodied woman can draw a man's love

depend upon the physical qualities of wife and mother. A good body and
vigorous health, therefore, become indispensable to female beauty.

sexuality. The other portions of the body however must be in harmony with
the size and breadth of the hips.
6. FULL BUSTS.--In the female beauty of physical development there is
nothing that can equal full breasts. It is an indication of good health and
good maternal qualities. As a face looks bad without a nose, so the female
breast, when narrow and flat, produces a bad effect. The female breasts are
the means on which a new-born child depends for its life and growth, hence
it is an essential human instinct for men to admire those physical
proportions in women which indicate perfect motherhood. Cotton and all
other false forms simply show the value of natural ones. All false forms
are easily detected, because large natural ones will generally quiver and
move at every step, while the artificial ones will manifest no expression
of life. As woman looks so much better with artificial paddings
