The Importance Of Good Manners.

Edward Everett, who commanded
SO much respect in England, not only
for his learning and talents, but for
the elegance of his manners, was once
asked by an American. how he had so
mastered the detail of European Ell

one.

Our republicanism will become
more genuine when it realizes that n

Don't Undervalue the Boy.

loo many men make their BOYS feel
that they are OF little or no account while
they are boys Lay a responsibility on
a boy and he will meet il in manful
spirit. On no account ignore their dis
position to investigate. Help them to
understand things. Encourage them
TO know what they are about. We are
too apt 70 treat boys seeking after
knowledge as mere idle curiosity.
Don't ask questions" is poor advice
10 boys. Ifyou do not explain pulling
things to them. YOU obIige them to
make many experiments before they
find out, and though experimental
knowledge is best. in one sense. in
another it is not, for that which can be
explained clearly, does not need exper-
lmentlng with. If the principle in
volved Is understood. there is no further
trouble, and the boy can 60 ahead in
diligently.
Do not wait for the boy to grow up
before you begin to treat him as an
equal. A proper amount of confidence
and words of encouragement and ad-
vice. and giving him to understand
that you trust him in many ways, helps
to make man of him long before he is
a man in either stature or years

1t is reasonable to presume that goods
cannot be bought as cheaply of houses
where but little business is done, as
goods so purchased must be bought
in small quantities. On the other
hand it is sound reasoning to as
sumo that the lowest prices prevail
in houses were large business is done,
as such houses can buy their goods in
larger quantities and are enabled to take
every advantage of the market. Such a
house must make the lowest prices the
leadin" feature Of their business. Now
we do the largest business in the line
of Dry and Fancy goods in the city, car
ry more stock than all the rest of dealers
in the same line and make low prices
the leading feature of our business.
