MANNERS. - Dung folks should be
mannerly. How to be so is the
question. Many good boy and girl feel
that they cannot behave to suit them
selves in the presence OF company,
They feel ,imid, bashtul, and self
distrustful the moment they are ad
dressed by a stranger or appear in
company. There is but one way to
get over this feeling and acquire
graceful and easy manners, that is to
do the best they can at home, as
we'll rs abroad. Good manners are
not learned from arbitrary teachings
so much as acquired from habit
They grow upon us by use. We
must be courteous, agreeable, civil
kind, gentlemanly and womanly al
home, aud then it will soon become
kind of second nature to be so every
where. A coarse, rough manner at
at home begets habit of roughness
which we can not lay off if we try,
when we go among strangers. The
most agreeable people we have eve'
known in company, are those that are
perfectly agreeable at home. Home
is the school for all the best things
especially for good manners.
