COMPANY MANNERS.
There il No Reason For Them. and TLey
Should lie Abolished.

There il No Reason For Them. and They
Should lie Abolished.
There seems to be au iiea among
many people that there must be a diff
ferent set of manners for company from
what is observed in everyday life.
While it is the proper thing to have fer
an invited company a more elaborate
dinner, and a little more ceremony in
the service than for the family table,
it must be remem bered that one should
not put on and take off good manners
as one would garment They are u
part OF ones self, and whether the fam
ily meal consists of many courses or
only a cup of tea and a slice of toast, it
should always be served decently and
the manners of the mem bers Of the
household should be such that one need
not blush for them, even in the finest
company. AS soon as a child is old
enough to come to the table he should
be taught by precept an example what
good table manners are. If the father
and mother be so nnfortun ate as not to
have had proper training themselves,
they should study to correct any bad
habit they may have, for the sake Of
their children. Let it be understood
that good manners are not the acquir-
ing OF every new wrinkle that fashion
able society may prescribe There is
great difference between good manners
and good form. What is good form to-
day may be very bad form tomorrow,
but good manners are not changeable.
Unselfishness, kiadly feeling and po-
liteness are the foundation of good
manners.
Good table manners demand that one
shall take soup from the side of
spoon; shall eat with n fork rather than
a knife: shall take small mouthfuls of
fcoi and masticate quietly, m al<ing no
unpleasant sound: shall take in the
fingers no food except fruit confec-
,iouery, olives, bread cake celery,
etc, and that the mem bers of the fam
lily shall be as polite to each other as
to any guest Where people rush
through their meals there is not much
chance for table manners or good di-
gestiou. If properly managed, the
table can be made one OF the most re-
fning influences of the home.

me and pointed towards that half-re-

The curtains of snow luckily parted
just then and touched the trigger.
Through the bowling of the tempest
there came the noise of the rush of a
mighty body. The black object seemed
to come almost upon me, then there
was the plunge of a heavy mass into
the snow near me-then silence.

close to him. The contact warmed me
and soou l was wide awake.
Then I knew that the black object I
had first seen was au opening in a
running creek and the deer had come
down to drink The shot had struck
him in the heart and he had made one
leap straight towards me after being
hit.
He is not the only deer that knows
of this spot, l argued. If l sit here
I'll get others. Another cartridge
slipped into the rifle and waited.
Slowly the dead deer grew cold, but
before his warmth had entirely gone
another came to share his fate laid
the two together and got between
them.
There I snuggled the rest of the
night ever on the watch for more
game. Nope came, but toward dawn
the storm bfsw away and n bright sun

the Indians had not yet arrived with
my deer of the day before, and prouder

FRIGHTENING A BEAR.
A Yell aud Tin Dipper Completely Ter
rIHaI ltruln.


1t is we'll known that animals are
easily terrified by that which is strange
to them, or the cause OF which they do
not understand. This is probably tho
reason why nearly all animals arc
afraid of a thunder-shower. Many
horses are frightened by the noise OF
a railroad train which they cannot sec.
bat will stand still while one goes by
of which they have full view. An
African traveller tells how he escaped
death from lion, which was about
leaping on him. by barking like dog.
The lion had never become acqnain ted
with men who barked. A professor In
an eastern college tells good story OF
similar adventure of his with griz-
Fly bear in the Rocky mountains.
One day he had been with q party TO
the top Of n mountain in Colorado. ana
in coming down had Sc parated from the
party. with only one companion. AS
they were making their way down q
spur of the mountain through a thick
growth Of scrub. the professor was
leading, and stepped out into small
open space about twenty feet in diam
eter. At the same moment there en-
tered from the opposite side two inn
mensc grizzly bears, the foremost OF
which reared himself ON his hind legs
with that inviting gesture OF his fore.
paws by which bears manifest their
affection for anything which looks
good to eat. The professor was en-.
tirely without arms, except bright.
new tin dippcr for drinking. In the
imminent danger. harliy knowing
what he did, the professor swung the
dipper furiously in the air and shouted
at the top of his voice. Aston;shed at
this unexpected and singular greeting,
the foremost bear fairly fell over his
mate in his eagerness to get away.
Both bears vanished quickly in the
bushes, and the professor and his COM
panion thankfully pursued their way
to the camp.-The Watchman.

WHEN THE MIND TAXES A NAP.

Moments That Are Erroneous!y Relieved
to We Spent In Thought.
In private conversation one day late
ly one Of Chicago's oldest and most
learned physicians gave utterance to
the following:
"Why is it that when we see per-
son gazing fixedly for several moments
at n certain point on the floor or in tho
street we say he or she is thinking hard
about something? N.ne times in ten a
person thus engaged-or rather disen-
gaged-is thinning of nothing. At
such moments, if yon only knew it. the
mind is mapping and there is no
thought Probably one of the oldest
fads-and it seems to be nothing more
consists of persons when at such
times they are asked what they're do
ing. saying thinking hard!
''In the large MAORI v of cases when
person is thinking hard or intently
the ey. roams from one object to al
other, and the hands and feet are
moving more or less.
1.-The busiest hardcst-working brain
in the country insists on taking mo-
mentary maps several times a day.
Just before dropping Off into one of
these maps the mind commands the eye
to fix itself upon some one object and
stay, thus usually insuring the holding
of the head and probs bly, every part
of the body quiet Then the mind
catches its little nap. These little
mind-naps or flashes of rest may never
be more than twenty seconds long, vet
they have been discovere to do the
mind wonderful amount of good.
They never come TO the deranged
mind. and it has also been discovered
that the supposedly sound mind which
does not take them is on the verge of
insanity. ."--Chicago Tribune.

Suooper children, for instance. Four

ago, and every one a bachelor or al
