Street Car Manners.

So loud and constant have been the lamentations and objuraations herea- bouts concerning what are termed our want Of manners in street car travel that t is high time, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat, to come to the de- fense of the great inartieulate public which cannot speak for itself, which IS cum. when the shadows murmI. Everywhere in the street cars of this country there is to be met cheerful and accomplishing submission to al most intolerable conditions of diseom
 fort through overerowding, which Is of the finest essence of true politeness We laugh with those who laugh at us to the point of forgetting what is due ourselves as a people in the conscious ness that Americans are among the poltest people in the world in every tr.'ins situation where real politeness is best illustrated. Because such sit- nations are constantly arising in the street cars of great cities. and because We meet and deal with them in the broad and generous spirit which is a part of the constraint of good man ners, those who lecture Us about trifies are shooting wide of the mark.

Picture Postcards.

Picture postcards have become a nuisance The originals were evolved in Germany. Some are nasty. some vile some salacious. some profane-all vulgar and inane This country is fol-
 lowing suit rapidly The post office authorities are helpless says the New York Press, as any particularly opjec- tionable card may be inclosed i'll an envelope and mailed On the continent of Europe extra stamp charges consu- tute one of the evils of the craze. Cn- able. as a majority of the tourists are. to read the inscriptions printed on the cards in the language of the particu- lar country in which they may be travelling. they fail to see that noth ng beyond the address is allowed if the card Is intended for foreign destina
 tion unless extra postage is paid. The result is that the sender writes: An
 other for your collection. Having ripping time, Remember me to the gang" Have one on me, etc. When the card arrives the recipient pays the extra postage and says things about the idiocy Of picture postcard senders
