CUSTOM SECOND NATURE.

A Foreigner Discusses European and
American Etiquette.
A large number of our modern customs
have become SO much second nature to
us that it is difficult for us to realize the
strange impression which they produce
upon others. If the planet Mars has re-
siding upon it human beings in any way
resembling ourselves, it is probable that
their whole system of life is different from
ours, and that visit to Mars ii such
thing were possible, would prove to us
that not a few of our customs are so far
superficial that they depend for their ex-
istence entirely upon local traditions and
restricted social surroundings.
The tendency among the civilized ma
tions of the world is to conform to GER
tain conventional type; hence, although
there are minor differences, the thoughts
and habits of those in polite society in
Europe and America do not differ materi-
ally. But the Chinese have been brought
up almost in another world, and they find
much more difficulty in comprehenuing
the significance and utility of our Gus
toms than we do in understanding theirs.
A Chinese mandarin who has recently
been travelling in Europe has printed an
account of impressions received during
his travels for the benefit of his own
countrymen, and some of the facts con-
tanned in this treatise are instructive, and
at the same time amusing He entirely
fails to understand the treatment accorded
to women in Europe. That husband
and wife should walk arm in arm in pub
lie places filled him with amazement
Nobody smiled at it," he says, land
even husband may perform any mental
task in his wife's presence, yet no one
would laugh at him."
1t is the custom in China for the women
to feed upon what is left after the men
have finished their meals. but in the
West" he says, Eat meal time the men
must wait until the women are seated,
and then take. one after another, their
places, and the same rule must be OBJ
served when the meal is finished" this
constituting, in his opinion a degree of
courtesy which is incomprehensible.--

THE CONTROL OF LONDON.

Is 1t Indeed the Best Managed City of
the World.
The policemen of London are urbane
and obliging, and the endless streams of
traffic on sidewalk and roadway are or
derly and unimpeded The movements of
all things are not rapid, but they are easy
and regular 1t is difficult at first to ac-
commodate ourselves to English ideas of
taking plenty of time, but when the idea
is omnipresent no one loses by it. Thor
oughness rather than haste is the English
motto.
The longer an outsider considers their
city and its administration the less apt
will he be to suggest how it might be i'm
proved upon. 1t may not be in all respects
perfect, but as q whole it Is the best city
in existence. You can live here more
comfortably than anywhere else, so far as
all the appliances of civilization are con-
cerned. The shops of London contain
all the best products of the worlds
manufactures. Her museums and gal
leries have the most valuable specimens
and curiosities and works of art. Her
markets equal in quality and OF course
excel in resources any others in existence.
Her society is the most luxurious ever
known. In her theatres are the best
actors, the best musicians Her wealth
furnishes capital for the largest enter
prises in all parts of the globe. Her parks
are magnificent; her churches and public
buildings are stately and often beautiful.
Her Parliamentis one of the most import
ant debating bodies ever got together
London has right to be called the capital
of the civilized world.
That there are faults and deficiencies
goes without saying. The hotels are of
the fourth-rate order compared with ours
in America, and the service, both at hotels
and restaurants, is execrable. There is
more vice to the square mile in London
than anywhere else, and it honeycombs
the highest society as well as the lowest.
Whitechapel and Mayfair are alike OBJ
noxious to this criticism. The press of
London lacks enterprise, and its respecta-
bility is dearly bought. There is and there
can be no public spirit in a population of
five and half millions. The height of
its opulence is only balanced by the depth
of its poverty. 1t has, in short, the faults
of its greatness. But of its greatness
there can be no question. Its most OBJ
vious curse is its climate during nine
months of the year. But during our stay
the weather was at its best | have never
seen London under more favorable as

BOOTS AND SHOES.

Fashions Have Changed in Fifty Years
Cork Soles.
Fifty years ago boots had the prefer
ence. Today, shoes. Formerly, in all
weather, the boot was worn outside of the
trousers. Today, when worn at ALL the
legs of the boots are covered by the legs
of the trousers. The whirligig of time is
bringing boots into fashion again, at least
for winter wear, and it seems to be in the
interest of good health. 1t stands to rea-
son that it should be SO. Everybody re-
spects the force of the general hyglenic
principle that it is necessary to keep the
head cool and the feet warm if good health
is sought. Boots cover not only the feet,
but the ankle and lower leg and hence
fight off rheumatism, that delights in at
lacking those parts. Woollen stockings are
possibly too heating and make the feet
perspire. With pair of good boots, cash
mere socks are better. The sole of a win
ter boot should be thick, but, being thick,
it isn't necessary that it should be heavy.
Cork soles are excellent, and they make a

last many years, and so, without fooling,
boots eventually cost as little as shoes.
The boot-legs should fit as snugly to the
limbs as the size of the feet will permit.
This makes the legs of the trousers fit
the better. Eschew goloshes. They in

serve their purpose. If the feet get warm
put them into cold water, next dry them
thoroughly, and then, with a change of
socks, they will fairly glow with warmth.

DEAR SRI wish to express my qualification.
