MODERN BUSINESS PoLlrENEss

Shown In Writing THANKS" or "Thank
You" on Receipted Bills.
"A custom Of politeness that. is mod
ern in the extent of it's practice, II not
in its Introduction" said man old
enough to be acquainted with ways
comparatively speaking ancient, lis
that Of writing thanks or thank you
after the signature on receipted bills
sent in due course on payment of &C.
COUNTS. a form that costs little effort
on the part of the signer and that is
sure to be not unpleasing to the per-
son to whom such politeness is Of
cred.
widespread is this custom in its
practice now, and so in it's observance
not likely to be surprising; but to-day
there came to my attention an in
stance of courtesy in this form that
did at first seem rather strained and
excessive.
ION a receipted bill received with
goods sent to MS G. o. D. found at
ter the signature the polite thank
you,' and here this seemed almost
superfluous; for this was a bill pre-
sented in the course of purely tran
sient' and impersonal transaction. But
moments reflection showed that the
thank you here was really neither
superfluous nor excessive, but quite
correct; here it was simply the polite
thank you that we would have re-
ceived from the salesman If we had
paid him the cash for the goods at the
time of the purchase"

Reforms In Tennessee.

"A great wave of reform is agitating
the people of Tennessee" said Mr.. E.
e. Boyer of that state.
"The sale Of intoxicating liquors
has been banished in all but a few
towns, and it would not surprise me
to see complete prohibition within a
few years. The reformers have also
been busy trying to eradicate the gam
bling evil, and they were successful
in having the legislature pass a bill
that strictly forbids any pool selling or
bookmaking on racing events. 1t was
thought that this law sounded the
knell of horseracing in Tennessee, and
so it may turn out, for unless men are
allowed to back their favorites there
will be very little interest paid racing
in the future. In fact, it is not practi-
cable to maintain the tracks unless
betting is tolerated."

An Awful offense.

Public school discipline is serious
matter Wisconsin. A number OF
girls were expelled from the Chippewa
Falls high school for writing harm
less. piece of doggerel verse on the
school routine, and though their faith
ers took the case into court, the Judge
refused to compel the school principal
to restore them. The enormity of
their offense may be judged by the
first stanza of their 'poem," which was
as follows:
Sit gazing strictly to the front,
Until the teacher says Stand"
And then with dignity arise
And march to the brass band.
Some teachers and judges ought to
be put to making shoes and cracking
stones instead of teaching children.

churnlna Dogs.

A curious point in regard to the new
dogs act occupied the attention Of the
Carnarvon county bench On Saturday,
says the London Daily News. The
superintendent reported that eight
persons had applied for exemptions in
respect Of dogs which were used for
chprning. Issard Davids inquired
whether it had not been decided that
to use dogs for such a purpose was
cruelty, but several of his colleagues
replied in the negative. The bench
decided that the owners of the churn-
ing dogs must take out licenses.

Naming a Planet.

It was on the evening of March IL,
1881, that William Herschel, at
Slough, England, discovered new
planet. Wishing to pay compliment
to George ILL.,, his patron, he gave it
the name of Georgum. Sidus, or the
Georgian star. Other English astron-
omers wishing to compliment the dis
coverer himself, suggested the name
of Herschel. Continental astronomers
proposed that the old NEUROLOGICAL
system be followed and the name of
Uranus was accepted by the scien-
tific world as the designation Of the
seventh planet.
