ETIQUETTE.

Ney.~ assume patronizine air to these
Of inferior rosl,,s,E:.
every person ,nv1ueu 70 weoulng
makes the bride a present. It may be
sent at any time before the wedding.
When addressing an elder person speak
gently, lower your voice to degree OF
kindness that is unmistakable.
Let it be cardinal rule never to enter
society without the assured feeling that
YOU are in the humor to make yourself
agreeable.
When your prejudices or opinions annoy,
pain or embarrass others, it is good breed
ing to give way, and SO temper manner
and language as to remove all embarrass-
ment.
The manner should always be gentle
and chivalrous toward women. A cer-
tain dignity must be preserved, yet gen
tleman must he plant, frank, confident
and manly.
!. If the courtesy of sending you an invi-
tation to wedding has been extended DO
not allow it to go unnoticed. Your card
inclosed in an envelope sent by mail 1s
sufficient.
Cultivated persons never lose temper in
conversation, neither do they give expres-
sion ordinarily to surprise or astonishment.
It is better to appear to give assent than
to dispute.
Gentlemen should invariably prefix
s.Mr.'' to their names on visiting cards.
| The prefix .Miss" must always be placed
an single lady's card. Not to do SO is
incorrect and vulgar.
The surest signs of high breeding In
men are mercifulness, kindness and gen
tleness; qualities which indicate fineness
of structure in the body and mind, rem
dering it capable Of the most delicate
sympathies.

The Lily Table Mat.

For materials use four shades of green

a half akein of each of the other shades;
commence, and crochet with the t1ehls.
stitch mat with eighty-nins stttches
around then eleven chain; then all the
chain with treble stitches; then ten treble;
then the chain and proceed The sa1ne all
around until it is six stitches deep. Finish
with the slightest shade; by putting over
the thread and drawing it Through three
stitches the mat will he very full. Tack
the fullness with the thread which will
leave place for the lily, which must be
crocheted with one-ounce white zephyr.
Set up three-chain, use the treble stitch;
use one in center, and go beck and forth
until six deep, then finish the edge the
same as the mat; there must be eight
lines; then have half an ounce of yellow
to represent the center. Set up thirty
stitches on kn. .tting needles; knit plain
ten stitches deep; bind off and sew TO-
gether; insert wire: sew lily together,
and put in its place in the mat.

OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
GRANDPAPA,s SPECTATORS.

Grandpapa's spectacles cannot be found;
round and round,
Now he calls to the young ones; and what
does he say?
'"rwopcnce for the child that will find them
to-day"
Then Henry and Nellie and Edward all ran,
And most thorough hunt for the glasses be-
gan: .
And dear little Nell, in her generous way,
Said; 'I'll hunt for them. grandpa without any
nay:''
All through the big Bible she searched with
care,
That lies on the table by grandpapa's chair.
They feel il his pockets, they peep in his hat.
They pull out the sofa. they shake out the mat:
Then down on ell fours like two good-natured
bears,
Go Harry and Ned under tables and chairs;
TIL. quite out of breath, Nedis heard to de-
clare.
He believes those glasses are not anywhere.
But Nellie, who. leaning OF grandpapa's IS knee.
Was thinking most earnestly where they could
be.
Looked suddenly up in the kind, faded eyes,
And her shining, brown ones grew big with
surprise.
She clarped Goth her hands, all her dimples
came out;
She turned to the boys with a bright. roguish
shout
''You may leave off your looking. both Harry
and Ned,
For there are the glasses on grandpapa's
head:'-

by our hopes and by our sorrows, if they lay a
hand OH thee,
All the world cannot save them from being
swept into the sea.
For though ireland is down-rrodden, robbed
and starved and begging there,
And her tyrarts fast have bound her---even
taxed the very air;
Though her sons ure broken hearted, nre nigh
driven to despair,
TO ayenge thee, noble sister. there's al Ireland
everywhere.
Aud you sag, dear loving sister.-glorious news
for all and me,
Who were driven, broken-hcarted, from their
country DER the sea,
And who ure longing, longing, longing, that
bright land again to see--
Though they've raxcd the perfwinkies, still the
shamroclSs yet are free.
Then, while they re free, oh, send me, for the
coming Patr:cks Day
One bright wreath, and night and morning
ever, ever shall pray
That you'll rise as bright and happy as the sun
yet ever rose
On the wings of glorious triumph oer you
mean, unmanly foes.
