The outdoor games and the boyish carelessness about wearing gloves have almost destroyed beautiful white hands, in the present generation, and you will often see the ugliest housemaid's fists upon the "Lady Clara Vere de Veres," whose mothers are famed for the beauty of their own fingers.

grass at will! No one forces you to enter society, but for heaven’s sake, if you do, decide to do it well! [Illustration: “_I wonder if you smoke, dear girl?_”] I wonder if you smoke, dear girl? There would be no use in my saying that I personally think it looks utterly unattractive to see a very young girl puffing her cigarette, because I know that I am old-fashioned and, in this, have not gone with the times--but such is my opinion. Should you not have begun to smoke yet, Caroline, put it off as long as possible, and, if you do take to it, let it be because you really like it, not for a pose, as some girls do. If you have acquired the habit already, be very careful of your teeth as you get older, and to have your hair beautifully brushed both night and morning--the smell of stale smoke in the hair and breath and clothes is so disgusting. While we are talking of personal habits and such things you will notice that quantities of girls are not particular about their hands in these days. OF EVOLUTION IT IS NOT A PRIMEVAL FOREST WHERE YOU CAN CLIMB TREES AND ROLL ON THE GRASS AT WILL NO ONE FORCES YOU TO ENTER SOCIETY BUT FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE IF YOU DO DECIDE TO DO IT WELL I WONDER IF YOU SMOKE DEAR GIRL THERE WOULD BE NO USE IN MY SAYING THAT I PERSONALLY THINK IT LOOKS UTTERLY UNATTRACTIVE TO SEE A VERY YOUNG GIRL PUFFING HER CIGARETTE BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I'M OLD FASHIONED AND IN THIS HAVE NOT GONE WITH THE TIMES BUT SUCH IS MY OPINION SHOULD YOU NOT HAVE BEGUN TO SMOKE YET CAROLINE PUT IT OFF AS LONG AS POSSIBLE AND IF YOU DO TAKE TO IT LET IT BE BECAUSE YOU REALLY LIKE IT NOT FOR REPOSE AS SOME GIRLS DO IF YOU HAVE ACQUIRED THE HABIT ALREADY BE VERY CAREFUL OF YOUR TEETH AS YOU GET OLDER AND TO HAVE YOUR HAIR BEAUTIFULLY BRUSHED BOTH NIGHT AND MORNING THE SMELL OF STALE SMOKE IN THE HAIR AND BREATH AND CLOTHES IS SO DISGUSTING WHILE WE ARE TALKING OF PERSONAL HABITS AND SUCH THINGS YOU WILL NOTICE THAT QUANTITIES OF GIRLS ARE NOT PARTICULAR ABOUT THEIR HANDS THESE DAYS
