A SEcREr.-"I will tell you secret.
The way to make yourself pleasing to 9TH
ers, is to show that yeu care for them. The
whole world is like the miller at Mansfield
who cared for nobody, nobody cared for
him. And the whole world will serve
you 80, if you give the same cause. Let
the people see, therefore, that you do care
for them, by showing them the small
coartesies of life, in which there is no par
ade, whose voice'is too still to tease, and
which show themselves by affectionate
tones end kind looks and little acts of at
tentioh' giving others the preference in
every little enjoyment at the table, in the
