Help them from the store you carry.
Serve a kindly word or two.

Though your claims call loud and long;
For the very best of riches
Lie in making Others strong.
| Do not pass because you never
Did this sort of work before
| Learn to keep for other mortals
Love and sympathy in store;
| Stoop within each day to leave them
Where within the hours you read

The MAJ. who opens the front door, says
the New York Tribune, is practically
master Of the situation. His mistress has
10 idea how he receives her guests, and
the visitor is treated as seemeth TO him
best without let or hindrance.
Il wonder" remarked an irate young
man who endeavored to pay his calls with
conscientious punctiliousness, why peo-
pie do not see to ID that their COMPOUNDED
flunkies have better manners? The way
those fellows say Not at home is
enough 20 make a man give up visiting.
To be sent off from q house where you
have been an invited guest as if you were
an importunate beggar is intolerable -
This may sound somewhat exaggerated,
but it is nevertheless true that the men,
ials of some Of the great mansions have
extremely irritating manners

clubman apropos of this subject "are apt
to take it for granted that IL they engage

naturally wish them to be. For instance

did not mean to be uncivil. but he spoke
as IL were an applicant for something
and 1 naturally felt annoyed, an irritation
which was not lessened when he came
back saying that Mrs. was not re-
ceiving. So out 1 walked again in a bad
humor feeling not only angry with the
footman but still more SO with his mis-
trs S. who, according to social as well as
municipal law, was accountable for the
acts Of her servant. but who, of coure,
was quite unconscious of any unpleas-
antness."
That there is a discrimination shown be-
tween women visitors on foot and those
who come in their fine equpages, prop

imaginary, but those who perforce must

Charley was a spruce-looking man with
a well-ntting new spring suit. He was
not young, a gocdly quantity of his curly
hair had worn off the top of his head, and
ne wore spectacles, though that is by no
means, a sign of age. The woman with
him was a dried-up. commonplace, mid

unattractive but IL was evident that she
was Charley's fiancee. No after-mar-
Rage caretaking could have been as COM
pacently received as that she gave Char

the New York Times and the pair were
evidently on their way to the island. The
trouble began with the window, for the
couple were riding backward in the seat
at the front end of the car The window
was let down with much trouble, and then
IL was carefully put up again, and the
woman settled herself to be comfortable
"Oh where are the coats, Charley?'
she cried. Charley was half sitting upon
them, and they were half way out OF the
car.
"Oh I wouldn't carry them that way

them and a seat facing forward. where
she had a good view of Charley.

Didn't though he smiled pleasantly and
took off his hat and wiped the perspira-
ton from his forehead.

sure to jake cold.

moment he put on his hat, and an apo
plectic man on the seat with the woman
gave a grunt of disgust The Charley

bridge and leaned well out of the car &C

woman's alarm.
