the 'tsmall, sweet courtesies Of life" contains
a passage from which a great deal of happi-

A Few Hints in Courtesy and Polite
ness

[RoseliA Rice in The Household.l
An instance occurred once on board a
steamer OF lake Erie. A country girl, not
thinking or knowing that this act was in VIC
lation OF all rules of courtesy and politeness,
picked up the comb and brush belonging TO
a lady occupying the same state-room and
used them in dressing her abundant hair.
When done, she surveyed her toilet with sat
i~sfaction before the mirror, touching the
tresses here and there, lightly, but the lady
opened the window and coolly tossed over
board the offending articles before the eyes of
the astonished girl. This was not wise, nor
%womanly, nor right. Another case trans
pired, but the denoument was more creditahle

Although no woman can add an inch to
her stature, she mas arrive at the same result
in appearance by her toiletts. Any female
wearing a skirt striped horizontally will APP
pear shorter than she really ia, while she will
gain in apparent height if the skirt is striped

of which are Of equal length; then, with a
ruler and ink, blacken the horizonal lines on

Mex hold the paper at a distance, and it will
be found that the squares will appear of

lines than their breadth.

Gold Weather in Texas.

\ correspondent at Fort WORTH
Texas, writes to The Democrat as fol.
lows regarding the effects of the recent
cold snap at that place:
1--WE have been blessed with some
good old Wisconsin weather down
here. 1t was just as diSagreeable as |
ever saw it at home. Such hard time
for railroads was never known in Tex
as. There were several persons per-
ished from the cold 1t is hard to i'm
agine country where people are so
poorly fixed for cold weather as they
are in Texas. The average Wisconsin
barn is better than the best farm house
l have seen in this part of Texas. The
poor people fare very badly. There is
no wood to gather for firing like there
is in Wisconsin.
During the cold snap l saw negro
children that any man with a heart in
him could not help but pity. Some
little ones five or six years old were
running around half naked picking up
little pieces of coal.
The people Of this state have had
more experience of cold climate than
they want for a long time again.
At this writing the weather has
completely changed and you can go in
your shirt. sleeves comfortably: and
farmers are blowing in fields as though
it was May instead of February. III.
