One of the most strongly marked
ohm iictoristicH-of a “nice girl" is tidi
n<ms and simplicity of dress; She is
uiviuibiy associated in my mind with
i high frock, plum collar, and the
neatest of nice ribbons, bound with
lie most modest little brooch in the
world. I never knew a “nice girl”
who displayed a profusion of rings
and bracelets, or who wore low dress
es or a splendid bonnet.
I ray again, there is nothing in the
World half so beautiful, half so intrin
icully good as a “nice girl.” She is
i lie sweetest dower,in the path of life.
L hero are others far prove stately, far
more gorgeous, but those wo merely
admire as we go by. It is whei'e the
laisy gi'ows that we like to rest.
