GOOD MANNERS
What a Gentleman Should Not Do
The Polite and the Impolite.

The Caucasian ventures to clip from
Daily Chit-Chat in the Times-Democrat
splendid reminder of etiquette by Ruth
Cameron. Indeed Ruth Cameron is al
ways entertaining and gives wholesome
advice and good counsel to her friends,
"When is it etiquette for man to
take a woman's arn?" I heard asked
the other day.
Never.
A man should never take a woman's
arm. He should offer his.
And it is not etiquette for him to do
this in the daytime, unless the woman
be old or infrrn At night he may of
fer his arm, although then is quite as
good taste not to. And as for the habit
of perpetually guiding woman about by
the elbow, which SO many men have, l
think it is abominable, and any woman
is justified in resenting it.
A good many men, | have noticed,
step back and allow the woman to leave
the car before them. That is very bad
form. A man should always get out
of the car first and then offer his hand
to help his companion out.
That man should not smoke when
walking with woman on the street
is rule that I suppose most men know,
even if, knowing the right, they still oc-
c,e;ano111y ot1rst1a the wrong R11t there
is one rule of smoking etiquette that
it seems to me can not be fully under
stood, it is so generally disregarded and
that is the rule that it is extremely inn
polite for a man to talk to woman
with a cigar, pipe or cigarette in his
mouth.
/ stood in front of the finest hotel
in this city the other day, and saw
a man dressed in the extreme of fash
ion-tall silk hat and clothes of the very
latest cut-hand fine lady into ma gni-
ficently appointed automobile, with a
very gracious and lordly manner, and
then climb in and sit beside her, chat
ting with her, with a cigar tilted from
the corner of his mouth.
| fancy that man would have hooted
at the bare idea of his needing any hints
on etiquette And yet
If all these little reminders are un-
necessary, please forget them.
If not, you are welcome.

ABOUT GEESE.

Here is what schoolboy thinks about
geese: Geese is a low, heavy,set bird,
composed mostly Of feathers and meat.
His head sits on one side and he sits
on the other Geese can't sing much on
account of the damp between to his
ties, an dhe carries a toy balloon in his
stomach to keep him from sinking.
Geese has only two legs and they are
set SO far back on his running gear they
come pretty near missing his body.
Some geese when they get big are called
ganders and have curls in their tails.
Ganders don't have to set and hatch,
but just to loaf, go swimming and eat.
If I was a goose l would rather be a
gander any time
