A PLEASURE TO SEE'

Some women have such a delightfully fresh natural complexion and reflect such radiant health and charm that the sight of them gives pleasure wherever they go. There are others, on the contrary, who, whilst possessed of beautiful features, can only be looked upon with feelings of sadness because of their sickly appearance, despito whatever artificial means they may adopt to try to hide the ravages of ill-health.
