Coon MANNERS. What an elegant
thing it is for man or woman to be pos
sessed of good manners. 1t is a passport
everywhere. 1t commands respect, induces
love and scatters happiness. Eventhe most
coarse and vulgar delight to see good manners
in others. Parents should take great care
in learning their children free and easy man
ners, for when once learned they will never
be forgotten. Do not depend Oh book
etiquette-book manners arc just none at
all. In passing along the street you meet a
woman who will run against you or crowd
you off into the mud. What contempt you
feel for her you regard her as fool, and
although she may be riggcd in the best of
attire you think to yourself that she is dcs-
titute of brains and every quality that
characterizesa lady. You meet another who
kindly gives you room to pass and seems to
recognize that shefs not the only inhabitant
of the country. You have respect for her
and think to yourself that there goes lady
of taste and refinement
you see boy or man who is possessed
of good manners, everybody respects him
and has kind word to say in his behalf -
On the contrary, when you see one who has
apparently grown up like pig, coarse and
vulgar, you have kind of contempt for him
and feel that he is not what God and nature
designed him to be.
BY manners We do not mean that stiffness
and precision which characterizes bigot or
a fop, but that easy address, accommodating
disposition, adaptation to circumstances and
surroundings, modest demcanor, and affa-
bility which secure friendship, socibility and
comfort.
Persons possessed of good manners will
not Intentionally wound the feelings of
others or give offence when it can be avoid
ed. Sunshine adorns their pathway and
happiness gathers about them.
