Beauty as an Asset.

To the profession of show girls of industry, says Miriam Finn Scott in Success Magazine, belong the demonstrator, who, with her fine complexion, wealth of hair or good teeth, advertises alleged merits of different toilet articles; the milliner’s model, who tries on hats before the fashionable customer, and whose pretty head and handsome face make the headgear more attractive in the eyes of the customer; the “figure lady,” who trieß on rich, ready-made gowns and cloaks, and whose form and beauty emphaslfe the style of the garment; the girl who poses for fashion plates; the manicure and hairdresser In public shops; the stenographer in many positions; saleswomen in certain departments; the ticket seller at cheap shows, and a number of other varieties that-will suggest themselves to the average woman shopper. Skill, of course, is required in sueh work, but as one girl said to me: “It’s your looks that hold Tour Job.” .
