Outside of ones own house everyone
should be careful in the matter of max
ing introductionS. \ lady ut Il friends
house may safely introduce two persons
whom she herself knows well. \ man
makes illtrOductionS more carefully. and
both men and women must first, if pos
siblc, get the consent Of the persons to
be introduced. An exception to this rule,
which hardly needs to be noted, comes
when three or four persons are thrown
together. some Of whom are strangers to
all but one of the others. in this case
to save awkwardness Il simple introduce
ton should be made. Some persons of
genial disposition feel it necessary to in
troduce all persons i'll their immediate

those who engage in it usually make
themselves very obnoxious to their az

The Passing of the "Hayseed,"

Who does not know him, with his goat

of an impossible nasality, his speech I'M
couth, his gestures ungainly, his green.
ness amazing! Who has not seen him on
the stage of the vaudeville farce or out
lined by the oycrworked caricaturist
No one. We are familiar with him from
absurd hat to ludicrous footwear, and
have been for years. Who sees him on
the streets of Northwestern cities today ?
No one. In modified form he exists in
that part of the nation which Bostonesc
are wont to call "way down East" He
also exists to some extent in the New
England that is nearer Boston than
Maine, while from New York and New
Jersey he is not altogether absent West
Of line drawn north and south through
Chicago he is rare-at least as an in
digenous variety.
The passing of the "hayseed'' is desir-
able. AS the farmer becomes more like
him of the city he and his children will
care less for the sO-called delights of
metropolitan life: will recognize his in
nate and indestructible independence,
and will be better satisfied with his lot

Make such changes as are possible by re-
