polite thing to do under the circum-
tances.
In answering invitations, one cannot
do it too promptly.
In returning a call, n cannot do 1t
too soon, and so on through all the
various forms of etiquette. To have a
fixed form of etiquette, and to thor
oughly know that form is of great ad-
vantage to any man or woman, for 1t
leaves one never at a loss to know the
proper thing to be done under given
circumstances. and therefore gives ease
of mind and bearing to the individual.
Good manners come from innate good
breeding, but good form may be ac-
ouired by careful study and close OBJ
servance of the forms that are at the
moment fashionable. The girl who
wishes to be popular must remember
that she must give pleasure to others
and not always be pleased herself. Ihe
girl who follows this rule, rarely falls
short Of success.
Don't get soured and pessimistic il
you think you are not appreciated Try
to forget yourself and make 1t your
business to pc so agreeable and attrac-
tive that people cannot fail to like you.
The girl who is sweet when 1t suits
her to be so, and rude or Indifferent at
other times; the girl who takes all n
gives nothing. who accepts favors as II
they were due her; the girl who is only
pleasant to those whom h thinks can
advance her interests, or who neglects
to show courtesy to old people, need
not be surprised if she finds that her
invitations grow fewer n that she Is
not popular.
Very often one blames h FOR
their lack of success socially when the
lies within oneself.
Then, too, the girl who wishes to be
a favorite, must learn to listen well.
She must appear Interested and con-
oentrate her mind as we'll as her ears
on the subject which is being discussed.
1t may bore her, but she must not
show it. and while the conversation
lasts she must listen and answer In
diligently.

One Makes No Mistake in Doing
What Is Polite at All
Times.
BY ELIZABETH BIDDLE.

7 IMAGINE very few of us like to be
constantly told don't do that and
don't say that" but in matters of eti-
quette and form any young girl or
young man, who wishes to make a sue
cess of his or her life in a social way,
must be willing to listen to some of
these dont's and try to follow the add
vice given.
Courtesy means p~oliteness; court
illness means one who las elegant man.
ners, SO the dictionary tells US.
Now the object of these little talks
is to explain the correct forms and
usages, the manners or etiquette for
all occasions which are being followed
at the present day.
A young girl who is impertinent or
careless in her demeanor to her mother,
or to older people, who is constantly
talking slang. who is careless in her
behavior with young men. or attracts
the notice of those around by her loud
voice and undignified behavior is not
well bred. no matter what her social
standing may be.
The same may be said of a young
man who is indifferent to those older
than himself, who sits when a lady
stands, or who neglects to show every
courtesy possible to a woman be she
young or old, beautiful or homely, rich
or poor.
A young man must acquire or at
tempt to acquire, the conventional
habits and of a gentlemen; a
young mn must acquire the owen
tional habits of a lady. says the writer
in the Philadelphia Press.
1t is a very safe rule to follow-to re-
member that one really never makes a
mistake in doing what Is the most
