ARMS AND THE MAN " may be a good song ; but " Dress and the Woman!" is better.
In fact, woman is armed if she is well dressed. If she is not well dressed, she is hardly a woman at all. To be well dressed needn't mean expensively dressed. It means suitably, expressively dressed. The right style of dressing can make a woman important in her own circle. The wrong style will leave her utterly unimportant. And she must not forget how bearing and carriage set off the right clothes.
This is really a serious question for every girl or woman, whether she can spend as much as she likes, or must study each shilling ; for it is good taste, not money, that does the trick ; good taste in dress, and in wearing a ten-guinea dress as if it had cost forty.
It is not the brainless woman who dresses well. It is the woman of intelligence ; and so it is something to be proud, not ashamed of, if one is known to give thought to one's clothes.
I have seen many a rich woman with plent}' to spend on her wardrobe who did not look half so well dressed as the girl who made her own frocks, or had to tell a " little dressmaker " exactly what she wanted.
I wonder if every girl realizes how worth while it is to^makc a man proud of showing her off when he takes her out ? She can do this easily if she will study her own personality with coolness and courage, and make sure what is most becoming in line, colour, and design. She must be in the fashion; she must be distinctly chic ; but what she must not do is to wear a thing cntirclv because it is the latest fashion.
