The Home as a School of Good
Manners

Not long ago l visited a home where
such exceptionally good breeding pre-
vailed and such fine manners were prac-
tised by all the members Of the family
that it made a great impression upon
me.
This home is the most remarkable
school of good manners. refinement and
culture generally l have ever been in.
The parents are bringing up their chill
dren to practice their best manners on
all occasions. They do not know what
company manners mean.
The boys have been taught to treat
their sisters with as much Difference as
Though they were stranger guests The
politenesss, courtesy and consideration
which the members of this family show
toward one another are most refreshing
and beautiful. Coarsenesss, gruffness,
lack of delicacy find no place there.
Both boys and girls have been trained
from infancy to make themselves inter-
esting and to entertain and try to make
others happy.
The entire family make 1t a rule to
dress before dinner in the evening, just
as they would If special company were
expected.
Their table manners are especially

Summer Fashions for Women


There are some features in the thin
wool and worsted summer suits of which
no hint was given in the first models
shown say in April but which now give
every assurance that tmey will not go
hopeessly out of fashion for the next
few months. That is saying much when.
in fact, every day things fashionable seem
more and more TO be matters of only a
momentary caprice. But the experimental
stage, for summer, has been passed as
to the coat length of such suits. All are
either half or three-quarter length. In the
matter of skirts, these have somewhat
widened, not materially so, but little.
the width being gained by means of small
fan-pleat groups let in at intervals around
the skirt. The pleats may extend from the
knee down or from the waist, according
to fancy but fashion arbitrarily demands
that they be pressed fiat. or stitched so
that the loose Moyen-Age effect remains.
There is, too, a distinct putting away
of soutache braid in favor of rather
heavy twisted "rat-tail'' cord, which out
lines large medieval ornaments. Disks
medallions, and vermicelli braidings are
to be passed by, which for a season have
been regarded as necessary trimmings.
The new forms are lace or embroidery
squares, usually of a cut-work charac-
ter. and of inlet or inset torpedo forms OF
silk or tapestry effects.

to be at his best, not to bring any crouch,
or a long or sad face to 1t, but to con-
tribute his best thought, his wittiest say
ings, to the conversation. Every MEM
Der of the family is expected to do his
best to make the meal a really happy
occasion. There is a sort of rivalry to
see who can be the most entertaining
or contribute the spiciest bits of CONVEX
sation. There is no indication Of dys-
pepsia in this family, because every one
is trained to laugh and be happy, and
laughter is a fatal enemy of indigestion.

Household page. This article is by Cardinal
James Gibbons.
young men who contemplate marriage let
me address n few words Of friendly admonitiOn
to you. Never do you assume more grave
responsibility in life. than when you take to
your home the young bride of your choice The
woman whom you espouse abandons the parental
roof, and cOnfides in your honor and protection.
o, let not that sacred trust be reposed In you
in vain. Her fond parents place in your hands
a precious jewel, compared with which they
regard all earthly riches as dross. Let not the
luster Of that jewel grow dim and be obscured
through your neglect or indifference; but rather
let II grow brighter and more radiant under the
genial beams OF your warm and generous heart.

Himself up for IT. So also ought men love

to promote her happiness. You will prove your
love by your deeds. BY your industry you will
make her comfortable. Py your sObriety you
