Com pany Table Manners.

There seems to be an idea among many
people that there must be Il different set of
manners for company from what is OBJ
served in everyday life While it is the
proper thing to have for an invited com
pany more elaborate dinner. and a little
more ceremony in the service than for The
family table, it must be remembered that
one should not put on and take OFT good
manners as one would a garment. They
are part of ones self, and whether the
family meal consist of many courses or
only cup of tea and slice of toast, it
should always he served dccently and IN
order, and the manners of the members of
the household should be such that one
need not hush 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
and example what good table manners are.
If the father and mother be so unfortunate
as not to have had proper training them
selves they should study to correct any
bad habits they have for the sake of their
children. Let it be understood that good
manners are not the acquiring of every
new wrinkle that fashionable society may
prescribe There is Il great difference be
tween good manners and good form. What
is good form today may be very bad form
tomorrow, but good manners are not
changeable. Cnsellishness, kindly feel
ings and politeness are the foundation Of
good manncrs.-Mara Parloa in Ladies
Home Journal.

Real Friends.

You may have heard your mother tell
how, when she went to school, she had
such Il dear girl friend, and how they two
have kept up the friendliness for many
long years, and you have perhaps heard
her say that school friendships are often
the most enduring of any. Then you have
wondered If you and your present best
friend will love each other when both of
you are gray headed. Now let us see how
things stand between you and your best
friend Anna. OF course you like her very
much, but you must confess that very FIRE
Qucutly there comes a little tiff and you
fall out" When such thing happens
YOU straightway transplant your alice
tions TO some other girl and your friend
does likewise. You two scarcely speak
when you meet and generally make a
point of showing great devotion to the
new friend in the presence of the old one.
Now isn't it rather silly to have these
unhappy differences so frequently? II
Anna does some very unworthy act, then
she deserves the loss Of your friendship;
but is your regard so frail thing that it
cannot stand small differences of opinion
Cannot you be more generous?
If your friend is lovable and you are the
kind of girl you ought to be- then you will
bear with her Inconsistencies and put up
with some of her faults. Perhaps you are
not quite perfect yourself, and she may
have to bear some things from you.-Har-

COLL|ERY
EXPLOSION.
Many Miners SuiOcated
Horrible Scenes Are Reported by the
ReSCuins Parties.
The Nansled Bodies and Half-Burned
Limbs Of the Unfortunate Hen Are
Found in the Ruins.

LONDON, Dec. IA fearful explosion
occurred today at Bamfurlong colliery,
Argen. \ large number of miners were
imprisoned in the mine. Despite the eff
forts to eXtinguish the fire, the flames
spread to the engine house at the head
of the air tunnel. This stopped the
pumping of air into the mine and added
greatly to the peril of those who were in
the pit. The fire was not subducd till
) o'clock this afternoon. Some little
time after the bodies of twenty of the
miners who had been sutlOcated by noX
ious gases left in the mine after the eX-
plosion. we're brought to the surface by
rescuing parties. Though the work is
extremely dangerous. the exploration of
the workings is continued in the
hope that some Of the miners
III tine pit at the time Of the
EXPLOSION may have reached places
OF safety, whore thoy are awaiting the
approach of rescuers.
Tine rescuing parties report ii horrible
scene in the mine. In the main roads
bodies lie in twos and threcs as the men
| fell. faces down aud heads toward the en-
! trance of the shaft. Large sections of
rock have collapsed. Amid the ruins were
found mannlpd bodies and half-burned
| limbs. IN" ruins have entirely darkened
| the mine, aud therefore the men search
ing for the bodies are unable to give any
estimate Of the number lost. Several
miners who were just alive when found
died on their way to the surface or short
ly after being taken from the car.
One rescuing party reached the sur
face half sutiocated by heat and smoke
caused by fresh outbreak Of fire.
The rescued miners believe the eXplo-
sion was caused by sparks from the en-
CINE house, which is said to have caught
fire "A few minutes before the explosion.
Men were sent through the mines
warning laborers and many Of those near.
est the shaft escaped. The miners who
worked further from the shaft tried 20
rush through the fire and smoke. but
were suffocated in the effort.
The work of rescue will be continued
through the night. although there is ht-
tie hope that more men will be taken
out alive.

WNsHINGroN. Dec. lit is stated at
the general land Office that during the
past few months there has been an al
most unprecedented call from western
and northwestern states for information
as to the location of unoccupied govern
ment land and as to what steps were
necessary to secure it under the set
tlement law. This fact is regarded by
the officials as an indication of the grow
ing desire among unemployed to secure
homes in the far west, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that within the next
few years nearly all of the desirable
holdings in the new states and terrific
ries will have been filed upon a. perma'
nent homes.
