She ought to have discovered early what style of garments suits her; she should have practiced until she can do her hair becomingly; and by exercises, and by care in remembering what is ugly and to be avoided, she should have perfected the grace of her body's movements.

 some nice man. If, by your self-assertion and exaggerated mentality, you have been able to crush out all sex instinct, then you become as the working bee--of a third sex, an anomaly in nature, and a ridiculous excrescence in God’s scheme of human progression. So for heaven’s sake, my sweet Caroline, keep this in view. Train what individuality in yourself you will, but keep your clear perspective so as to be able to see the ultimate goal of happiness. I think I have been rather generalizing, so now I want to come down to a concrete description of what I think would be a perfect young girl, and you must tell me if you agree with this picture of a female “admirable Crichton”! I think, firstly, she ought to be sensible enough to understand the colossal [Illustration: “_I think, firstly, she ought to understand the colossal importance of beauty._”] importance and value of beauty, and to have learned to take care of her personal appearance, so that in every way she is a pleasure to the eye. HIFTS OF USE ONLY IF THE POOR THINGS DO NOT OBTAIN THE SOLE REAL JOY AND HAPPINESS TO BE THE LOVED AND HONOURED MATE OF SOME NICE MAN IF BY YOUR SELF ASSERTION AND EXAGGERATED MENTALITY YOU HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CRUSH OUT ALL SEX INSTINCTS THEN YOU BECOME AS THE WORKING BEE OF A THIRD SEX AN ANOMALY IN NATURE AND A RIDICULOUS EXCRESCENCE IN GOD'S SCHEME OF HUMAN PROGRESSION SO FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE MY SWEET CAROLINE KEEP THIS IN VIEW TRAIN WHAT INDIVIDUALITY IN YOURSELF YOU WILL BUT KEEP YOUR CLEAR PERSPECTIVE SO AS TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF HAPPINESS I THINK I HAVE BEEN RATHER GENERALIZING SO NOW I WANT TO COME DOWN TO A CONCRETE DESCRIPTION OF WHAT I THINK WOULD BE A PERFECT YOUNG GIRL AND YOU MUST TELL ME IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS PICTURE OF A FEMALE ADMIRABLE CRICHTON I THINK FIRSTLY SHE OUGHT TO BE SENSIBLE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THE COLOSSAL IMPORTANCE AND VALUE OF BEAUTY AND TO HAVE LEARNED TO TAKE CARE OF HER PERSONAL APPEARANCE SO THAT IN EVERY WAY SHE IS A PLEASURE TO THE EYE
