 about or given. sufficient at M E tention--thr small courtesles -sA A of everyday Efe-the little, trifling things i'll manners which are really so important, which help to smooth the way, 10 make things pleas anter and easier for others, and help to win their goodwill.
 The rush and hurry and feverIsh ex- citement of modern life Is not conducive to the cultivation of true courtesy. Peo- pie seem to imagine 1t is credit to themselves to appear to be always Tn haste, very busy, and that to bele1surely is old-fashioned, or indicates a lack of engagements.
 They hasten or from one thing to an- other, from one place to another, scarce ly taking time to breathe, and indoubt- edly never taking time to be polite. Rudeness Unpopular
 Carlessness and selhsh1ess lead rap idly to absolute rudcneSs, lld soon the careless person offends others and be- comes unpopular. F It may be that a person would not in tentionally do the wrong thing or hurt anotle-'s feelings. Mistakes may be made simply from not trying tc form habit of thinking of others, and what will please them, not from motives of se1f-interest, but from the mere wish to do little llindnesses, for to be consider ate and unse1hsn is at the root of true courtesy
 A pleasant bow, cordial greeting, a friendly clasp of the hand are not diff cult things, and they go far toward pleas ing; yet how few people give either one or the other.
 Placing People
 One of tine important small courtesies is to cultivate memory for faces and names, to be able to place people, as the saying Is, to recall where one has met them before, or with what occasion or event they may be especially asso- ciated; and to be able to speak of some thing personal in order to show interest in their life and affairs. Another point IS to put others at ease always For instance, If one greets ari acquaintance whom one has not seen for long time, it is polite to say. q hope F. you remember mel am Mrs. Az This reminder puts the other at ease. and opens the way to conversation. It IS not courteous or well-bred to avoid men tioning ones name while one sees that an acquaintance is puzzled as to oae's identity.

 Lawn Decoration
 The bed of car1nas, edged with cala- diu1n escrlenturn, correctly planted, forms a veritable bit of the tropics, the broad, arcl1ing leaves and bold spikes of the flowers bearing witness to good cu1- ture.

TO HELP THE CARVER

A dimes. table should be we'll laid, well lighted, and always afford a little spare room It IS better to invite one guest less than to destroy the comfort of the whole party. The carving-kEives should be put in edge before the dinner commences, for nothing irritates a good carver7o perple51es bad one more than a knife which refuses to perform it's office, and there Is nothing more annoy ing to the company than to see the cary ing-knife dancing to and fro over the steel, putting teeth on edge" while the dinner Is getting cold and their appe- tites are being exhausted by delay. The carver should have plenty of room, however closely the diners are compelled to sit together, and, to my mind, he should supply the plates according to his own judgment, instead of putting the question to each guest as to which part he prefers and then striving to help him, to the prejudice of others present.
 CHILDREN's HOUSE SLIPPERS
 Last winter I spent some time Tn a family where there were five small chill dren, and as the father was recovering from a severe illness, 1t was necessary that the house should be kept as quiet as possible
 Upon my showing astonishment that so many little ones should make so lit tie noise, the mother called my atten- ton to their feet, which seemed to be shod in little patent leather slippers. They were, however, made from "black oil-cloth," the kind that resembles table oil-cloth, but is little heavier. These slippers were cut like those worn by men in rubber boots, and were lined with single-faced eiderdown, which made them very warm, and being damp proof, they were perfect house slippers for the little ones.
