The Little things.

a
A word o. caution to QUE girls As to care 70
"IiIt'e things" is perhaps wholly unneces-
sary when such testimony from those whom
we must love to please is overw helmiDg up
on this point. The girl who educstes herself
to uniformly kind speaking TO brother" as
well as ) her admirers will never pe left
musing at home while everybody else is
'.having a good time" Though her dress
n ay be less ruff I'd than her mates. her TEN
per may be smoother; If her neighbor Is a
more sprightly coDversationalist, she can
strive to charm by the Oh iging distribution
of her store of knowledge when sought.
Should her companion be an al tistic singer,
she may please by willing service in this art,
rather Than in a snowy display Of an infer
Tor talent. Comparatively few people are
good judges Of music, and a willingness to
smnse aud please a company will often win
favor when greater talent wi be overlooked
in those less obliging. The politeness OF the
Frenchmsn who offered a disappointed lady
the last sest at favorit. opera, which he
nad procured before her arrival, was true
kindness, though courtesy forbade Its accep
lance. Unseifl,nness, when give TO another
