How the Average citizen should
Conduct Himself when Riding ON
Barrett's system of LOcOmOtfOn.
The Missouri Republican gives the
following rules for observance in street
cars: 4ei
No gentleman should ever sit down in
street car when he can, by any posi-
bility, stand on the rear platform, as an
agreeable excitement is thereby fur
nished to ladies desiring ingress in hav-
ing to force their way through a crowd.
Besides, it is in harmony with the eternal
fitness of things, for nature abhors q
vacuum, to which there is always q ten
dency in rear of a moving body.
Should gentleman wish TO smoke a
cigar while riding in the cars, he will
GHd the front platform the most eligible
position, especially in summer time,
when the doors ami windows are open.
The smoke will then pass in graceful
and gentle fluctuations through the car,
and the ladies' who are so fortunate as to
be inside-and who are prohibited by an
unreasonable etiquette from smoking
will be enabled to participate to some
degree in the nicotiau enjoymeuts SO
selfshly monopolized by males If a
gentleman cigar should accidentally
:" go out" there is no necessity for him
to follow suit. He may quietly and
serenely seat himself in the car, with
the distinguished stump in his mouth,
the all-pervading odor Of which
mouth or stump. as you please
will give extreme satisfaction to
all his of fellow travellers who
have cultivated olfactories. When
lady checks the car for the purpose of
egress, any gentleman may time her, f"
and when he thinks she ought to be
safely landed may sing out to the con-
ductor "all right" If the lady should,
unfortunately, have one foot ON the
street and the other ON the platform at
the time, and be Frustrated by the sud
den starting of the car, she may console
herself with the reflection that life has
many ups and downs, and that the one
can only exceed the other by aunt. She
may also be edited by recalling TO mind
the scriptural sentence: Dust thou art,
and unto dust shalt thou return"
Should young gentleman be seated
IN u cur, MI tut bchlo vi WulIn hHC OCCu-
pied, and lady should enter, he should
before offering her his seat. observe
whether there is an elderly gentleman in
the car, and if such proves to be the
case, he should wait until the elderly
gentleman has the opportunity to offer
her his seat; because Difference should
always be paid to age. Moreover the
elderly gentleman having more expert
ence and consequently a ripper Judgment,
would be better able to decide whether
it was proper to offer the lady a seat
or not. If he should not do so
it would be highly indecorous and pre-
sumptuous for the young gentleman to
do so. The example of the aged is a
safe precedent to follow, and in this case
is obligatory. II young gentleman be
seated between several young ladies and
another lady enter, he should not look
around for the elderly gentleman, but
may give up his seat at once. The per
sonal advantage of this ia obvious; he
obtains the opportunity of standing fac
ing the ladies' apd staring at them dur
ing the entire trip.
