Home Politeness.

A boy who is polite to his father
and mother is likely to be polite to
every one else.
A boy lacking politeness to his par
ents may have every semblance OF
courtesy in society, but is never truly
polite iu spirit, and is in danger, as be
becomes familiar, of betraying his real
want OF courtesy.
We are all in danger of living too
much for the outside world, for the
impression which we make in society,
coveting the good opinions of those
who are in sense part of ourselves,
and who will continue to sustain and
pc interested in US, Notwithstanding
these defects in department and char
acter.
We say to every boy and every girl,
cultivate the art Of courtesy and pro-
priety at home-in the sitting room
and in the kitchen as we'll as in the
parlor-and you will be sure in other
places to deport yourself in a becoming
and attractive manner.
When one has a pleasant smile and
demeanor, it is satisfaction to know
that these are not put on, but that
they belong to the character, and are
manifest at all times and under all
circumstances.

Der of de members of dis club am

mer. OATS all right, an | wish 'em
much JOY, an shall be glad to witness
de obsequies of each an every one.
But, | want 10 say few words iu GIN
eral. In de fast place, am you gwine
to mary fur love or far sort O. biz
ness partnership? If you answer fur
love, let nie warn you to be sartin dat
you doan' mistake de sentiment. Many
a young man who thought his heart
torn by love has plunged into matri-
mony to diskiver dat he simply had an
admiration for a $50 set of false teeth
an high instep. Ii you answer fur
a sort o bizness partnership, let me
warn you not to expect too much.
You won't love de woman, an she
won't trust you. 1t will be sort O.
hoss trade in which both parties will
be cheated and both continuer to be
mad about it. You kin git along ar
ter fashion, an people who see her
on your arm at circus won't know
how you fight at home
