The Charm of Good Manners.

Perhaps the greatest charm in either
man or woman-that which is most
certain to win our liking-is manner.
How often we see . man whose manner
at the very outset wins the esteem and
regard of every ONE he addresses. A
whole-souled cordial, yet dignified and
modest manner is a fine heritage. and |,
in common with all my sex. like the
man who possesses it. l like a man who
preserves a certain dignity but yet is
plant; who is open and frank and looks
you honestly in the face; who speaks
out confidently, yet calmly. modestiy,
yet firmly; who is neither bluff nor
blunt, but yet free and simple. l like a
man who is natural; but if a man be
naturally too rough, too loud, too curt
or too brutal. like him better when he
shows himself able to conquer these de-
fects-Mrs Humphrey Ward.

A SMART ACTOR.
He Proved Himself Equal to Every Emer-
goncy.

A German dramatic author tells
good story of an improvised monologue,
to which he had to listen on the occa-
sion of the first production of new
comedy. The hero had finished toll
erably long speech, and at that precise
moment a medical man ought to have
emerged from the wings; but he did not
emerge.
"Ah, here comes the doctor" began
the hero afresh, in order to fill up the
time: and he stared anxiously in the
direction of the prompt" side of the
stage.
But how slowly he walks. One
would imagine that there was no need
for hurry. Now he has positively
stopped to talk to LADY, What can he
have to say to her? At last he is
once more on his way. No-now he has
stopped to talk to man. Why, the
doctor knows everybody? Here he
comes again. Thank Heaven
At that moment the doctor entered,
but from the opposite side.
/ For an instant the hero was taken a
little aback, bat with admirable cool
ness he recovered himself, and, as he
greeted the visitor, exclaimed
How did you get round the corner 80
quickly, doctor2"-Yankee Blade.

VALUE OF CHEERFULNESS.
Like Sunshine, 1t Iilumines the Dark Cor
ners of Life.


Cheerfulness is a great tonic 1t il
light and air to our moral nature; and
to be without it is to be without some
thing that answers to the mind for
what clothing and shelter are to the
body. Yet it is not, in its noblest sense,
spontaneous. or a mere attribute; there
is conscious desire and an effort to be
so.
For true cheerfulness does not turn
the back on the evils of life; neither is
it the selfish ''I-care- for-nobody" of the
Miller of Dee. There is happiness of
no genuine kind in such Indifference: it
is only pressing down the pedal that
deadens all the tones of life. Neither
does Sydney Smiths advice, to take
short views OF life" express it. For
cheerfulness does not refuse to look for
ward. because it is the popularity of a
brave soul--a soul that has no present
bugbearS it cannot face, and none be-
hind it that it cannot turn upon.
Cheerfulness never broods. If a trouble
or veXation can be helped, it looks at
once for the remedy and applies it: if it
cannot be helped, it accepts the inevita-
bic, as the brave accept calamity. quiet
ly. with calmness and resignation.
Cheerful people are busy people. Cheer
ful people value whatever is their own;
they do not disparage either their work
or their position. Cheerful people have
no mysteries or secrets: for cheerfulness
is like the sunlight - it illumines the
darkest corners
Constant laughter is not cheerfulness;
it is more likely to De the expression of
folly. Send us hence thousand miles
from face always parading itself in
smiles and giggling. Anybody can
laugh; but to look bright, with all the
muscles at rest, betokens glad ac-
ceptance of life and all its dutics-a
habit of taking things at their best and
making the best of them.
Discomfort brings doubt, and doubt
sets the soul drifting like dismantled
ship. Hamlet's mood, the gloom of
Pascal, or of Oberman. did not cut the
knot of their perplexities, or find any
answer to the spirit of their discomfort.
The great open secret of life is not so
learned. 1t abides with that true re-
ligion that needs no aid from theories
of an intellectual mnlady; with the
cheerful fulfllment of the duties of life:
with love, labor and content. These
things bring cheerfulness, and lead men
and women to join that happy multi
tude who have never asked themselves
whether Life was worth living" for
the multitude. happily. have an I'M
doubling catholic sense of the blessing
of life; it is the exceptions only which
doubt it. and whatever is exceptional ia
generally unhealthy. The cheerful do
not vary from the kindly race of men, +"
and they find in their cheerfulness a
specific of which doubters and grnm-
blers cannot rob them; light which
brightens the all-day-long days; turns
Every weed into flower;
Turns each thistle to vine
Makes the bramble eglantine."
Amelia E, Barr, in n. Y. Ledger.

BABY BARBARA.

What Is the hue Of the baby's eyes
Baby Barbarasi Tell me true.
Brown like the earth in a garden spot
Or blue as the sweet forget-me-not?
All. black as a sloe perhaps are they
+. Now, what is their colorf Who can sayf
What is the tint Of the babys hair
Baby Barbaras' Tell me, pray.
Is 1t O kind Of golden crown
That from Heavens gateway drifted down,
sOr brown like the locks her mother wears,
With Sunbeams caught in its tangled snaress
And what are the baby's other charms
Baby Barbaras? Tell me true
Are dimples hid in each rosy check
Where the laughter plays at hide and seek.
And wond ring looks in her open eyes
That tell each day Of new surprisef
1t Is mystery all 10 me
Baby Barbara, but some day
I'll hold you close In my loving arms,
My baby girl with a million charms,
And, kissing you DER and DER again,
Say: "Barbara-well / like your name"
And, liking your name. my baby girl.
III love you too, for yourself alone.
And when you have grown up tall and fair,
And hearts are caught in your tangled hair,
You'll come to me in that far-of day,
But, Barbara III be old and gray.

Best Diet for Young Children,

The best diet for young children is
fruits and grains, with moderate al
lowance of milk. Such fruits as baked
sweet apples, strawberries, stewea
prunes, peaches and grapes, can be
eaten with impunity, provided they be
eaten at regular meals and not at all
sorts of irregular hours, and if good
bread and milk be added, nothing more
is needed. Indeed, this diet is the best
for any one whose digestion is not
strong. These constitute the best and
most digestible of the fruits and the
ones least likely to disagree with the
digestive organs. Children are often
made chronic dyspeptics through i'm
proper diet before they are ten years
old. They are allowed to eat all sorts
of indigestible compounds at irregular
hours to say nothing of meats, fats,
coarse vegetables, sugar and other
sweets, besides drinking tea and coffee.
Ii is no wonder that the Americans are
becoming noted as a nation of dyspep-
tics-From Lecture by DIR. J. Ii. KEEL
