SIGNS OF GOOD BREEDING.
Forms Of Etiquette That All People
Should Observe.


Should Observe.
A bow should always be returned
even though one may be mistaken
for some one else, and to give the
cut direct is a discourtesy of which
no person of good breeding should
be guilty. 1t is perfectly easy to ac-
knowledge a Salutation with such
dignity but brevity of glance as to
plainly show that one does not care
to have anything but very formal
acquaintance with the person spoken
to.
A man always raises his hat when
presented to woman or to another
man. He should also raise it when
meeting or taking leave Of woman,
when she first speaks to him for
whatever reason, when he offers his
services in any way, even though she
may be a stranger to him, such as
when entering an elevator where
women are present or in opening
door for a woman to pass through.
In fact, man cannot be too careful
in showing this little act Of courtesy
whenever the least apology would be
in order, says the Philadelphia
Press.
A man always lifts his hat when
woman under his escort receives
some courtesy from stranger OF
if she bows to a person that he is
not acquainted with. He also raises
his hat upon recognizing an ac-
quaintance who has a woman with
him whom he does not know. A
man should be as particular in bow
ing to his mother, father or sister
when meeting them on the street
or in taking leave of them as he
would be with his friends or formal
acquaintance.
Men shake hands with each other
at introductions; women only when
desiring to be especially cordial. A
man, Of course, always waits for the
woman to offer her hand first, and il
possible he should remove his glove
before doing SO if her hand is un
gloved.
Women do not kiss each othel
when meeting and parting unless
they are very close friends, and ever
then it is usually only done in pr
yate.
When acting as a woman's escor
man should pay all the fares an(
fees. When entering street ca
or any vehicle he should allow tn
woman to precede him, assisting he
as she does so. In leaving the ca
OF cab he alights first, offering he
assistance as she. follows.
In all these forms of etiquette !
is quite possible-to at least lay tn
foundation for their correct observ
ance when those under ones car
are merely boys and girls. 1t the
become accustomed to good form
and good manners when young the
will never dread the day when the
must enter the more formal ways o
society.

Sens In Verse
En.lan Epps.

Ensign Epps, at the battle OF Flanders,
sowed a seed of glory and duty
That beautiful flowers and flames In
height and beauty
Like crimson lily with hearts OF gold
Today. when the wars of Client are old,
And buried as deep az their dead COM
manders.
Ensign Epps was the color bearer
No matter on which side. Philip or
Earl-
Their cause was the shell; his deed was
the pearl.
Scarce more than a lad, he had been a
sharer
That day in the widest work In the
field.
He was wounded and spent, and the fight
was lost;
His comrades were slain or a scattered
host.
But stainless and scathless out Of the
strife
He had carried his colors safer than life.
By the rivers brink. without weapon
or shield.
He faced the victors. The thick heart
mist
He dashed from his eyes, and the silk he
kissed
Ere ne nelu IL dlOll III liic SSh1h6 SN'
AS proudly as II the fight were won.
And he smiled when they ordered him to
yield.
Ensign Epps with his broken blade
Cut the silk from the gilded stan,
which he poised like a spear till the
charge was made,
And hurled at the leader with laugh.
Then round his breast, like the scarf oil
his love.
He tied the colors his heart above
And plunged In his armor into the tide
And there, in his dress of honor, died.
Where are the lessons your hnglings
teach?
And what Is the text OF your proud
commanders?
Out Of the centuries heroes reach
with the scroll OF a deed. with the WORD
Of a story,
OF one mans truth and all mems glory.
Like Ensign Epps at the battle Of
Flanders.
