Barbaric Salutations

WHEN the Polynesian meets a friend, he
w caresses the face with his hand; in Da-
honey the natives snap their fingers; and in
Abyssinia they hold each Others hands and blow
moisture into them. The Chinaman puts his
hat on as mark of respect; and some of the
tribes in Africa turn their backs to each other.
The Malay always sits in the presence of a SUI
perior; and in FIJI, if man of rank should
fall by accident, everyone of inferior station
who happened to be present must do likewise
The Indians, when a friendly visitor ap-
proaches their wigwam, perform the simple
ceremony of an introduction to their chief by
putting the pipe of peace in the strangers
mouth and inviting him to a seat near the fire.
In some of the South Sea Islands this very
important preliminary to friendly inter-
course is usually adjusted by rubbing their
noses together. or by an exchange of gifts
When Michelangelo had been for several days
employed on statue, giving it what he called
the finishing touches a friend remarked to
him, But these are trihes, and unworthy of
so much attention. -" Trif1es perhaps" he
replied, but trihes make perfection and per-
lection is no trife." This observation may be
fifty applied to manners, which consist OF a
series of trifles, such as bow, raising of the
hat, shaking the hand, or greeting friend in
the street.

Kissing Shoulders

THE Moors had custom of kissing the right
L shoulder. and at parting they would kiss
each others knee.
In Italy they have three different greetings
for the day. In the morning they say, God
give you a good morrow" at noon, God give
you healthi' and at night. Good evening""
If it is late they say, God give you the good
ness of the night" and sometimes, God con-
tent you'll
In the usual German greeting, How do
you find YOURSELF" we may see proof of the
this people are distinguished When guest
rises from the table, they hope that he has
had a hearty meal-that he may find himself
the better for the good cheer of the table.
In Spain, when friends meet they salute
each other with the words, Gentle sir, you
are welcomed" When they part, one says,
God remain with you'll and the other re-
plies go in a good hour' In CASTLE they
say, God conduct you!" or THE blessed
angels bear you company"
The French greeting is Characteristic of the
people. They express the most ordinary sem
timents in the most graceful language. Il
am charmed and enchanted to meet mon
sieur" is the usual form.
In Holland the phrase used is, How travels
My Lord?" This greeting at once presents to
our imagination big Dutchman. well fed and
warmly clad travelling at his ease in a boat
on a canal. and hailing passing friend to IN
quire if he also travels as conveniently.
In the oriental nations the form u.s. Peace
be with you'll" and the answer, With you be
peace!" This presents vital feature OF their
character, for peace expresses their idea OF
comfort and happiness, and when they salute
each other with this word, they signify that
they wish their friends WELL
