HOW TO BE A HAPPY OLD MAID
[Welland Telegraph, 12 June 1891]
To have so much to do that there is no time for morbid.
To never think for a moment that you are not attractive, and to make yourself look as charming as possible.
To be so considerate of the happiness of others that it will be reflected back to you as from a looking glass.
To never permit yourself to grow old, for by cultivating all the graces of heart, brain and body, age will not come upon you.
To believe that a life work has been mapped out for you, that it is near you, and to do that which your hands find for you.
To remember that the happy old maid is the one member of the family who, not having any other claims on her, can be God’s own sunshine to those in sorrow or in joy.
