"At first FASH" he says, 'boarding house
manners would seem to be similar to those
of any other domestic establishment where
peaceful relations are maintained. But
this is not the case; for certain contingencies
arise in a boarding house that could not

are not those of blood, kinship, clanship,
sentiment nor affection, but simply of con-

s. If you trip over the boarders and other
furniture, grumble at the boarders and apol-

9. Talk to the people when at table, but
don't speak when you meet on the street.
The knowledge OF these nice little dis
tinctions indicate birth and breeding.
10. Never do unto others (iu a boa riding

Paz Nal Budget reminds us that Pittsburg's
not over-clean streets will soon be relegated
again tc the care of the Department of Pub
