The Courtesy

The Courtesy
Has had a revival in a curious little dip. a
slight quick bending OF the knee, that in
England is known as the charity bob, since
IL long has been there the usual acknowl-
edgment by beneficiary in accepting aims
or favors and is a somewhat wooden-joint-
ed reference.
In France the courtesy has had place al
ways among the social traditions of the
ladies of the Faubourg st. German, that
stronghold of Partisan exclusiveness whose
reverences show the incest gradations of
etiquette.
With a French woman salutation Is an
art. From the low sweeping courtesy at a
first introduction to a woman of higher
rank than her own down to the familiar
nod and extended hand with which. with
out rising from her sofa she greets her
men friends. the exaGt degree of permitted
intimacy Is indicated. Louis XIV, says his
tory. had fourteen different degrees of bow
ing.
Any little mark of Difference from youth

but there is among a rampant protest
against artifciality in any form, which.

The Custom =

OF devoting Sunday afternoons to visiting
the great women of America has remarked
the immortal part suffers by neglect. and
many of the young people who live close to
their ideals have set their faces against 1t.
One young girl says frankly: II am at home
every afternoon after o'clock, except Sat
urday, when l go to the opera. and Sunday.
when 1 go to church." Women must take
the Initiative in all social reforms.
1t Is an affectation that the evenings are
so occupied as to leave no time for calling
and young men are driven to the clubs and
theaters and to spend more money than is
good for them, to find occupations for their
evenings.
Some girls have the faculty of making
a man feel In a homelike atmosphere when
making an ordinary call They make him
welcome without stirring his vanity, and
show sympathy in his interests without
adulation, nice companionable girls. neither
artificial nor superficial, but simple and sin
cere.
No young woman visitor should receive
calls from her men friends without asking
her hostess to be present, leaving the option
with them. Nor should she invite one to
visit her without first asking permission
of her hostess.
No gentleman calls upon lady except at
her invitation, unless he previously has sent
her letter of Introduction. No matter how
much he may desire an acquaintance, he
must bide his time unless some kinSwOman
or friend will exert herself in his behalf A
man must not go beyond an evident pleas
ure in womans society by way OF sugges-
ton. Of-course. circumstances alter cases,
but 1t Is important for her preservati ton
against undesirable acquaintance that a
man should await the ladys invitation. The
sooner the call follows the Invitation the
greater the compliment. A fortnight is the
usual interval.

The Neeighboring-
Merchant may not keep the variety of
denims so popularity adopted by city house
keepers and SO truly useful in the home Of
modest aspirations. but he is likely to carry
quantities of red. brown, or old blue overall
goods. and these in weave are a kind of
compromise between jeans and duck. and.
not unlike the denim, are admirable sub
stitutes for this favorite material From
the point of view of the artist their tones
are excellent. A whole sitting room may
be done in either. beginning with the chair
cushions and those of the improvised settle,
the draperies, and even the floor covering.
To give color to the dining room of a farm
house, generally whitewashed or calcimined
and plainly painted, such materials will
prove excellent.
They improve in softness as laundering
becomes necessary. and will take needle
ornamentation admirably. This when done
with rope linen thread or mercerized cot
ton is often highly effective. A room with
walls, and soft, fresh muslin curtains, with
hooked. or woven, or merely plated rag
carpet will be dainty. modern and refined.
Interiors so treated are no longer con-
sidered 'countrified," but are being devised
again and again in the colonial cottage
homes that distinguish the beautiful SUBJ
urbs or the eastern cities.
Many calico designs seen upon the comm
ters OF country merchants are unfit for
wearing APPAREL, but they often will be of a
pattern and coloring and body which will
serve admirably for the making of trunk
covers. closet curtains. for the dressing of
beds. and for making box plated or gath
cred mantel lambrequins. They are fresh
and sanitary. and, by means of neat work
manship in making them up, may become
things of real beauty
A room so treated should not contain of
course. more than one pattern of goods, the
curtains and ruffied trunk covers and val
anced bed being done In the same Where
variety is desired. colored Innings may be
given the bedspread or the curtains. such
as plain rose or blue or green; or. where
even this is not available, a soft yellowed
or unbleached musiiG will serve with good
effect.
Many of the mistakes made In the decora-
tons of the simpler homes are the result
of poor workmanship In carrying out what
in the beginning were good ideas.

ROMAN RELICS liz SCOTLAND.
Bronze Vase Of Fine Workmanship and
a Collection Of Armor Unearthed.

One of the most interesting con-
tributions to the Scottish Historical
Review deals with the excavations at
the Ronen fort at Newstead, Mel
rose, which are being carried out UNI
der the auspices of the Society Of
Antiquaries of Scotland. Owing to
the nature and variety of the finds,
and the care with which they T be-
ing recovered and preserved, the
work may well be considered one of
national importance. James Curle,
of Melrose, a distinguished border
antiquary, who contributes notes on
some recent finds, says the most
striking result Of the wor@ lies in
the collection Of objects from the
Roman period which have been
brought to light.
"The finds, for the most part, have
been made in clearing out what
would appear to be disused wells OF
rubbish pits. These have been found
outside the fort, as well as within
the ramparts. In depth they vary
from 70 to 30 feet, and all of then
are more or less filed with decom.
posed animal and vegetable matter
which has a marked pre8ervatiye in
fuence." Mr.. Curle gives a detailed
description Of a finely preserved
specimen Of a bronze vase with
single handle. It stands II inche
high, and, it is c~onjectured, date
from the first century. The vase

WHERE WOMEN ARE BALD.

"The women, not the men, go bald

try in northwestern France, over
looking the sea. 1t is New Hamp-
shire, with the sea added. The
Breton peasants speak a language
which resembles Welsh; they hate
strangers, and they wear a peculiar
costume.
"This costume is what causes the
bald-headed women. One part of it,
the Golf or headdress, a cap Of white
linen, requires that the hair be
drawn back very taut from the tenn
pies. Drawn back thus, it begins tc
