Good Manners Mt Home,

The presence OF good manners is
nowhere more needed or more eff
fectlye than in the household, and
perhaps nowhere more rare. When
ever the familiarity exists, there is a
tendency to loosen the check upon
selfish conduct which the presence
OF strangers involuntarily produces.
Many persons who are kind and
courteous in company, are rude and
careless with those whom they love
best. Emerson says: GOOD man.
ners are made mp of petty sacri-
fees and certainly nothing can
more thoroughly secure the har-
mony and peace of the family circle
than the habit Of making small sac
rlfices for one another. Children
thus learn good manners in the best
and most natural way, and habits
thus acquired will never leave them.
Courtesy and kindness viii never
lose their power or their charm,
while all spurious limitations of
them are to be despised.

THE st. Louis Journal Of Agricul-
ture, speaking of the relation which
should exist between the F. & L.
U. and any political party, says:
Have members of the Farmers
and Laborers' Union forgotten en-
tirely the precepts of their consti-
tuition? Have they forgotten to
labor in a strictly o partisan
spirit3 Have they forgotten the
motto, SIN things essential, unity;
and in all things charity? Have
they forgotten .sto strive to secure
entire harmony and good will to
all mankind, and brotherly love
among themselves? 1t verify
seems SO. In many of the county
union meetings there has been as
much wrangling and %quarreling as
in an ordinary political meeting.
They have been brothers in name
only. What a pity it is that farm
ers, who have so much to gain by
united action and real harmony,
can so forget their own interests.
