Early Rising Not Always a Virtue.

Early Rising Not Always Virtue.
Thousands of people have no choice
whatever about their hour of rising i'm
the morning. Later or earlier. that
hour is fixed for them by the REQUIRE.
mentS Of the office, the shop or the
classroom, by the time table of the rail,
road, by the arbitration of their en-
ployers or the necessities of their en-
ployees. But in the cases manifold
where personal liberty is enjoyed it
should not be thoughtlessly restricted
simply because of the domestic tradi-
ton that early rising deserves praise
and late rising blame.
Breakfast may often be Il movable
feast without materially disturbing the
routine of an orderly housekeeping day.
Invalids, mothers whose rest has been
broken by teething babies and. above
all, rapidly growing children, should
have their sleep out. Nature demands
this, and violence is done to her when
sleepy people are rudely aroused from
their beds. Early to bed is the single
safe prescription to insure early to rise
We need to repeat it over and over to
our hurrying, anxious, toiling Amer
lean men and women: Rest, rest and
again rest. Do not think time i'll spent
that is spent in repairing the ravages
of our we'll nigh incessant activity.

The EtiUuette of Cues.

In China the men take as much pride
in their hair as women, and the pig
taiP' is thing of no little moment. In
making the cue the whole head is shaw
ed except q circular patch upon the
crown. The hair from this is braided,
and strands of silk are added, which
end in tassel reaching to the heels.
In full mourning the black strands are
replaced by white ones and in second
mourning by light blue or green.
1t is an objectionable breach of eti-
quette for an inferior to enter the pres
ence Of a superior with his cue wound
round his neck or head, as it is fire.
quently disposed of during work, and
the greatest insult one man can offer
another is to pull his cue. 1t seems
very odd to see sailors and soldiers ON
ship or in barracks combing each 9th
er's long tresses or coolies at the street
corners performing the same friendly
office. Custom fOrbids man to wear
a beard and mustachc until he becomes
a grandfather.
