A Secret of Youth and Bright Rooms in 19th Century Text
A column discusses women who stay young due to a sunny temper and charity, not beauty or fashion. It contrasts perpetual youth with aging, notes idleness accelerates aging, and praises daylight and tasteful furnishings. It cites Jenny June and includes scattered excerpts on home life and a riddle about Buessep.
