RICHMOND. Ky, April 17.-One of the
local papers stated this morning that Prof.
c.. w. Stockton, a schoolteacher at Waco,
near here. would have been an important
witness in the Breckinridge-Poil case.

self TO Miss Pollard. He occupied a seat
directly in front of them, and recalls dis
tinctly the INCIDENTS of the meeting. He
has kept silent during the progress of the
case, as he did not wish to so to Washing

THE ETIQUETTE OF CALLS.
When to Make Thorn, Upon Whom and ir
Manner.

Stern fashion and the exigencies o.
polite society have rendered necessary
n set of rules for making calls inexor-
able in themselves, but SO faithfully OBJ
served among those who care to know
and do what is right that once thorough
ly learned the lesson is never forgotten
or its precepts varied. The etiquette OF
calling, rs practiced, tends always to
the greater convenience both of hoA'
and caller, and AZ usage and custom
be strictly observed. 1t is the duty of
the mother or %chaperon. says the Philar
delphia Times, not of the young ladies'
to invite a gentleman to call. After a
visit of this description 1t is incumbent
upon the first arrival to be the first to
leave. The lady of the house must be
asked for as we'll as the young ladies',
and cards should be left for her as we'll
as the younger ladies of the family. II
u man is favored by an invitation to call
upon a family or person he should as.
certain the prescribed hours for calling.
and in the first instance, at least, adhere
strictly to those hours.
1t is proper after a removal from one
part of town to another to send cards to
ones friends with the new address there
on. Assuming always that the new
corners are desirable people to know, the
duty OF the first call devolvcs upon tho
older residents of the neighborhood, and
q failure to show this courtesy whore it
is due is not only careless but unpardon-
able, and a first call should be returned
In person and within a week of the re-
ceipt of the courtesy.
Where a gentleman kas been properly
invited to call upon a lady, or If. through
the offices Of u mutual friend. he is the
bearer of an Introductory letter, ne
must do so within n reasonable time-a
week or less-and the call, at least, must
be OF the most formal nature. The
same rule applies with regard to the
acknowledgment of the obligation in
Cured by the acceptance of an invita-
ton to a dinner party or similar affair
the cal: must be made soon after and in
person.
After a marriage has taken place or
an engagement announced In a family
of your acquaintance, or where a
friend has returned from q prolonged
absence, the obligation to call is i'm
perative.
The whole system of this phase OF
social obligation turns upon expedien-
cy, and, while the foregoing rules Of
observance may well be regarded as
strictly correct in all that they cover,
there must be 4 certain freedom of ac-
ton allowed to individual acquaintance
regarding visits of coincidence. congrat-
ulations or matters of common interest
Remember that nj Mt home" is i'm.
perative. even from your dearest friend,
and do not seek to prove the truth or
falsity of it. You have often escaped a
bad quarter Of an hour by this con-
~venient device of society, and you should
be as ready to accept such excuse with
out question as you have been OF occs,
sions to make 1t.

GEMS FROM SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS,
Bright Answers Made by Little Pupils In
British Elementary Schools.
Some recent answers during examin.

Some recent answers during examin-
alton in north country elementary
schools show III amount of thought and
Il force of character which ought to be
put to the credit account ofthe scholars,
If mo- to their teachers, says the London
Telegraph. Here. for instance, was a
curious bit of reasoning IN the part OF
a little girl. The examiner wished to
get the children to express moral re-
probation OF lazy people, and he led up
TO it by asking who were the persons
who got all they could and did nothing
In return. For some time there was
silence, but at last the little girl, who
had obviously reasoned out the answer
induetively from her own home ex-
periences, exclaimed with IL good deal
of confidence, please, sir. it's the baby"
In answer to some questions as to the
birthright which Esau forfeited and the
nature of it, applied to the children
themselves and what their birthright
was, that boy showed a good deal Of
practical sense, however deficient
theologically, who answered that his
birthright Vas his "grandfather's big
watch"
Not quite 50 satisfactory was the an
Bwer of a boy whose class was being
questioned on the parable of the prodigal
SON.. The examiner dwelt, as a prac-
teal question, upon the prodigal spend
ing his substance in riotous living, and
especially what "riotous living actual
ly meant. The inquiry elected no re-
ply except from a boy whose solution,
however fresh and breezy, bore strik-
ing testimony to his bohemian surround
ing at home: please, riotous living
means spending your money like a geu-
tleman."
But nothing can surpass the worldly
wisdom of the little girl who, casting all
her theological training to the winds, re-
sponded to the diocesan inspector X
aiming the class on the duty of love,
and asking, "Whom ought we to love
mostP" by answering promptly, 1.-The
inspector, SIR"

Kind of Man Women Like.

Probably the best thing hat was ever
written on the interesting question OF
what women like in men is summed up
in the idea that women like a man who
can be strong as . lion when trouble

tired can button up a shoe with an
amount of consideration that is a men,
tai and physical bracer-up. They like
a man who likes them, who doesn't
scorn their opinions, who believes it,
their good taste, who has confidence in
them, and wit enough to realize that
when one of the fairer sex is slightly
stubborn persuasion is more powerful
thar all the arguments in the world.
