The Contradietina Habit.

A natural habit of every child is
to contradict, and this should be
overcome as soon as a boy or a girl
develops it, for of all disagreeable
and overbearing persons those who
aggressively contradict are among
the worst. Parents cannot be too
particular in teaching their sons
and daughters to disagree courte-
ously, which is not at all incompati-
Bile with doing it positively. 81 beg
your pardon, but you are mistak-
en-" is quite as much of a contradic-
ton as saying, ut isn't" and it is
far better manners. 81 think you are
mistaken" is another way of ex-
pressing the opinion. A mother
need not be afraid of making her
child prig by teaching him such
little things. They are as impor-
tant to him as a knowledge of how
to speak dramatically Exchange.

Women of Tezzo.

The women of the island of Yez-
20, whence it is supposed came the
original inhabitants of Japan, have
very peculiar custom Of making
up their faces to look as though
they have mustaches. These wom-
en- are called Anus, and upon the
upper lip of each Ainu belle is tat
tooed something that resembles
long, flowing mustache. To pos
sess an artistically tattooed orna-
ment of this kind marks woman
as especially attractive, and her
chances of making good matri-
monial alliance are very small if
she is not thus adorned. AS a mat
ter of fact, the men of the island
choose their spouses more for the
beauty of this tattooed design than
the grace of form or charm of fea-
ture.

The Obvious Course.

A reverend gentleman was ad-
dressing Sunday school class not
long ago and was trying to enforce
the doctrine that when peoples
hearts were sinful they needed reg
plating. Taking out his watch and
holding it up, he said:
"Now, here is my watch. Sup
pose it doesn't keep good time-now
goes too fast and now too slow
what shall / do with it?"
.Sell it." promptly replied a boy.

Modified His Remark.

From the Georgia legislature Of
the days before the war comes a
story of the effect of parliamentary
procedure. James Hamilton Coop
er was speaking and made a remark
able statement of fact. A modest
legislator exclaimed half under his
breath, "Whew, what a laundering
lie~ Cooper suspended his speech,
having overheard the remark, and
challenged the offender to a duel.
A court of honor was arranged,
which resulted in Cooper giving
permission to the luckless wight to
modify his remark. The correction
was made in this manner: "Mr.
Speaker, in an inadvertent moment
| referred to a remark made by the
honorable gentleman as "a thunder
ing lie | desire to withdraw that
statement and in lieu thereof will
say, 1T is Illuminating enlarge
ment of elongated veracity.'" Thus
sugar coated the speech gave no &C.
casion for a duel.
