This is the Way, Girls.

When the engagement is to be an
nounced, the proper thing is for the
young girl to write brief, informal
notes to her intimate friends, telling
them the news. Her mother writes
to older friends and to members of
the family, although it is an attention
much appreciated by older persons If
a girl herself takes the trouble and
thought to write to them, instead of
delegating the duty to her mother. In
any case there should be no failure on
the part of one or the other to write
to those who are supposed to be in
terested in the event; they may be
deeply offered If forgotten. It
is, of course, not the custom to write
to mere acquaintance The young
mans mother writes to the members
of his family connection and the young
man himself writes to a few of his
men friends or may speak to them Of
his good fortune. All Of the notes are
sent out by post and sent simultan-
eously. At least the family of the
young girl should take the initiative in
the matter, it being understood that a
young man and his family are not at
liberty to tell Of the engagement until
it has been made known by the family
of his fiancee. From .The Observan-
ces of Society" in The Ladies' World

The superstitious Eskimos.

The Eskikmos at Ramah and at the
stations south are all supposed to be
Christians, but, naturally, they still
retain many Of he traditional beliefs
and superstitions Of their ancestors.
They will not live in a house where a
death has occurred believing that the
spirit of the departed will haunt the
place. If the building is worth it, they
take it down and set it up again some
where else. Not long ago the wife of
one of the Eskimos was taken serious
.ly i'll, and became delirious. Her hus-
band and his neighbors believing that
she was possessed Of an evil spirit,
tied her down and left her, until final

LITERARY REVIEW
The cultivation Of Cordial Mature.

q /. u
o. S. Marden in Success Magazine
The cultivation of cordaility and
popularity early in life will have a
great deal to do with ones advance
ment, comfort and happiness.
It is a notifying thing to have a
kindly feeling in the depths Of ones
heart, and yet not be able to express
it, to repel people when one has just
the opposite feeling toward them. To
be incased in an icy exterior with a
really warm heart is a most unfortun-
ate thing.
Some people have a repelling express
sion in their faces and manner which
is a constant embarrassment to them;
but they do not seem able to overcome
it. This is largely due to a lack of
early training, or to the fact that some
times these people have been reared in
the country, away from the great cen
tiers Of civilization, where they do not
have the advantages of social inter
course, and in consequence become
cold and appear unsympathetic when
they are really the opposite.
25I It is a very difficult thing to over
come these handicaps; but the cult
walton Of good will, of helpful spirit
and kindly feeling toward everybody
will so far to open up the hard exter-
ior SO that the soul can express itself.
