DisagreeaDIe Habits.

Nearly all the disagreeable habits
which people take up, come at first
from mere accident or want OF
thought. They might easily be
dropped, but they are persisted in
until they become second nature.
Stop and think before you allow
yourself to form them.
There are disagreeable habits OF
boys, like scowling, winking, twist
ing the mouth, biting the nails, con-
tinually picking at something, twiri-
ing a key or fumbling at chaln'
drumming with the fingers, screwlng
and twisting a chair, or whateveryou
Law your hands on. Don't do any OF
these things. Learn to sit quietly
like a-gentleman | was going to
say. but / am afraid even girls fall
into such tricks sometimes. There
are much worse habits than these, to
be sure, but we are speaking only OF
those little things that are only an
noying when they are persisted in.
There are habits of speech, also,
such as beginning every speech with
YOU see,' or, 'you know nova, Il
don't care tell ye what tell ye
now indistinct utterance, sharp, mas
al tones; avoid them all. Stop and
think what you are going to say, and
then let every word drop from your
lips just as perfect as new silver
coin. Have care about your way OF
sitting and standing and walking.
Before you know it you will find that
your habits have hardened INTO coaS
of mail that You cannot get rld oil
without terrible effort.-Lttae Cor
