A Code of Manners for Boys.

The following clipping from The
Christian InteUfgencer is the best
epitome of boys etiquette that we
have ever seen. Until boy reaches
the stage of propriety when he sits
up late and rises early to read manu-
ais of social customs, this will help
him to solve most of his puzzles:
In the street. Hat lifted when
saying "good-bye,' OF chow do you
do?" Also when offering lady a
seat, or acknowledging favor.
Keep step with any one you walk
with. Always precede a lady up
stairs, but ask if you shall precede
her in going through crowd or pub
lie place.
At the street door. Hat off the
moment you step into a private hall
or office.
Let lady pass first always, unless
she asks you to precede her.
In the parlor. Stand still till every
lady in the room, also older people, are
seated.
Rise if lady enters the room after
you are seated, and stand till she
takes a seat.
Look people straight in the face
when they are speaking to you.
Let ladies pass through door first,
standing aside for them.
In the dining room. Take your
seat after ladies and elders.
Never play with your knife, ring,
or spoon.
Do not take your napkin up in a
bunch in your hands.
Eat as fast or as slow as others,
and finish the course when they do.
Do not ask to be excused before
the others, unless the reason is i'm
perative.
Rise when the ladies leave the
room, and stand till they are out.
If all go out together, the gentle
men stand by the door till the ladies
pass.

titled to pensions and increase pen
sions who can easily obtain the same
