Here is what purports to be COM
plete reply to the question, s'What is
gentleman" It was first published
some years ago in New York news
paper. 'SThe gentleman is distin-
guished from him who is not q gentle
man by moral qualities which have
won the highest place in the respect
and admiration of the world. The
gentleman restraints his passions and
subdues his selfshness; he considers
the comfort of others before his own;
he respects the personality of those
with whom he is brought in contact;
he never takes an unfair advantage;
he is scrupulously regardful of his
own honor, doubly scrupulous if the
honor Of others be committed to his
keeping; he may lack mental culture,
but he is never without moral refine
ment; he may have an unpublished ex-
terror, but never q base nature:
courage he has, but shows it less in
facing danger than in meeting re-
sponsibiity; if not always sincere, he
is always reliable; and to him may be
safely committed all that others hold
most dear, in simple reliance upon
his honor; he is man whose manly
traits are penetrated and modified by
the gentleness of woman's nature,
and who still preserves and endeavors
to constantly act upon the manifest
OF instincts magnanimity."
