Holmes discovered that lit is n very
serious thing to be funny man." and
one of the younger New England poets
is said to have warned a beginner In
literature never to publish humorous
verse If he wished to make and keep
a reputation as serious poet.
A story. perhaps apOcryphal. which
is told Of Mark Twain Illustrates the
theory that humorist's reputation de-
bars him from all other kinds Of credit.
Mark Twain is lover of Browning
and reads him aloud with excellent
power Once he read several passages
to company gathered in the house Of
friend Among the guests were some
young ladies'. One Of them laughed
during the reading. Afterward she

Character peve1onment.

! Small essential the next: The little
/ kindnesses and cOurtesies which we
! should extend to those with whom we
come in daily contact The little acts
/ Of Difference which we should show to
ladies, such as taking on the hat when
we stand with them in an elevator or
allowing them TO precede US through
an opened door The THANK you, SIR

a gentleman's action when be rises in
a street car to offer her a seat. The lit
tie social calls by which we should
welcome a new neighbOr or her friends
into our community. The little gifts Of
delleacles which should be sent TO the
invalid's room Of our neighbor's house.
All these little attentions and cour-
tesies may not seem TO be Of much
value at the time. but they are mighty
in the development or the depletion OF
human character They are mighty In
deciding whether man is to live a
selfish or an unsP!fsh life.
How a selfish life? Simply enough.
Here. for instance. is a man who enters
a railroad car. He places his satchel
In one seat and his Overcoat by his side.
Then he stretches out his long legs
puts his feet upon the opposite seat and
begins TO read a newspaper. After
awhile the train fills up. but he does
not remove his membranes. The
man Is an incarnation OF seltishness.
He cares only for his own comfort and
Is ObliviOus OF the rights Of others. He
has paid for but one sitting. He has a
right to occupy only half seat Yet
he Is mOnOpOllzlng four slttlnGs. When

ing for a place TO rest and to deposit
her load. he buries his face yet farther
In the newspaper and pretends not to
see her. The old lady hesltates a little
by his side. and then passes on. You
say: THAT man Ia not a polite man.
He is not a gentleman" say Chris
tian courtesy means more than the two
words mere pOliteness" imply. That

purchased a $1OO berth for the pas
sage If you cannot be on time, ae'
cOrling to promise, for your engage
ment, then you should notify the per
son with whom you have the appoint
ment. But the great trouble with
many people is that they have no NOR
al sense of the duty of keeping an en-
gagement unless they wish to do So
They will promise anything, like dis
honest politician just before an cleo
tion. and like the same dishonest poll
tioian after election they will forget
all their promises if it suits their con-
venience to forget. The result is that
the mans character and religious life
will he eaten out by these little fail
ures ard sins, just as one little worm
can tunnel its way into the heart of a
great oak and eat out its heart until at
last the monarch of the forest will
have its backbone snapped by the on
