A. H. Fish illustration. "A beautiful woman has no need -- nor time -- to be anything else. Among her virtues she must include courage, patience and perseverance, but the ends justify the means. Success in her chosen career allows her to achieve everything a woman could want -- a jealous husband, envious friends, and the admiration of her grandchildren. Besides, it gives pleasure to appreciators and jobs to many nice and worthy people."
