the face of lady standing there with a
friend She made a gesture of repug
nance, when the man said, "Gentlemen
may smoke here" 'You may smoke here
but you cannot be a gentlemen if you do"
said the lady-one of those not easily put
down.
The annoyances to which young women
travelling alone are often subjected is
again by no means proof that our polite
ness is intrinsic. If lady meets an or
binary young Englishman who does not
know her, she meets some one who does
not hold her worthy of politeness, and
who does not go out of his way to show
her any. If she be pretty he stares at her,
perhaps smiles, perhaps speaks; if she be
of no personal attractiveness, and has only
her womanhood as her claim, he leaves
her emphatically to herself. Whatever she
may be about to do-to pass through a
doorway, enter a railway carriage, or an
omnibus, or lift, he pushes past her
though no one is hurried for time, and lets
her follow meekly after. The elder men
are more courteous. They retain still a
certain flavor of the stately old times
when manners were part of a gentleman's
education, and politeness was one of the
points of distinction between courtier
and boor-L0ndoH Queen.

to the coat sleeve of gentleman just ahead of
him; there's a bur on your coat, sir; permit
me to remove it." "Thank you; no cense-
quence," said the gentleman, himself remov-
ing the bur. The impecunious one struck an
attitude, told the regulation story of hunger,
and preferred a request for ten cents with
which to bny bread. He got the money, but
still fingered. "What is it, my MANI" asked
the gentleman. 'Please, sir" replied the
tramp, you have my bur in your hand I'd
like it, if you please. It's my capital, you
