Where a Man Rises.

! When a woman comes into a room
in which there are only a few people,
say about half a dozen. all the men
should rise at once and remain stand
ing until she Is seated. In a crowded
room, at tea or party, this, Of course,
is not necessary.
If man is already seated at the
table he should rise when women come
to the table Men who are very care
full Of their manners do this even at
hotels and restaurants if strangers are
put at their table, but it is unusual.
Heidelberg students in Europe keep
up this courteous practice, and it is
said that Harvard students in this
country also do so.
If woman in passing down the
aisle Of a theater or train pauses to
speak to friends any men in the par
ty should rise while she is speaking.
and if on a train one Of them should
offer his seat.
A man should always remain stand
ing until the women at a table are
seated, pulling the chair back for the
oldest or the one nearest, if there are
more men present.
II man by chance sits next to a
woman acquaintance on a car or sub
way and she leaves the train before
he does he should rise and lift his hat
when saying goodby.
It is not necessary for a man to rise
II a woman goes in and out Of a room
many times. This would be stretch
ing an act Of courtesy to the point Of
the ridiculous, although there are few
excessively polite men who insist on
keeping their manners polished to this
degree.
A man should never remain seated
while he talks to woman who is
standing. This applies to Offices as
well as drawing rooms. A courteous
employer can always get good work
from his employees.

Daughter to Be His Secretary.


Few government employees in Wash
ington work harder than Elizabeth C.
Harris, daughter Of the representative
from Massachusetts who succeeds
Governor Foss in congress. She is an
expert bookkeeper. stenographer and
typist and will act as her fathers Sec

wives and daughters as secretaries.
but usually they also have practical
stenographers to take up the burden.
Mrs. Humphreys of the state Of Wash
ington acts as her husbands secretary.
but she in turn has a secretary who
copies letters and addresses envelopes
and attends to routine work. Miss
Harris will do everything herself and

Unexpected Guests.

One reason why hospitality is exer-
cised with little freedom in these days
is that we are so fettered by conven-
tionality and so resolute in determi-
nation to keep everything at concert
pitch that we are beside ourselves If
people pay us surprise visits. Perhaps
it is as we'll to add that visitor would
better send message in advance by

friend. comes when it suits her to do

pable housewife should b. equal to this
emergency.

Calling Cards.

Even conservative women are carry
ing cards measuring less than two by
three inches, so that in the case Of a
deep mourning card there is only SUI
ficient blank space for the name. The
smallest woman's card measures 2 by
2A inches, tie largest 3A by 2A
inches, with four sizes coming be-
tween.
The pasteboard is of only medium
thickness. The stiff card is out of
date.
This year preference is given to the
shaded old English lettering and the
black and shaded French script, the
latter being the very latest style.
The size Of the lettering is regulated
by the length of the name to be en-
graved, and the size Of the card is reg
ulated by the length Of the name.

old coiored man, "Tom, II you
will watch your chickens tomor-

will go to roost n II o'clock"
Tom was, of course, skeptical
but at the appointed hour the

old mans amazement knew no
