Chicago Jan. 24.-WHEAT =,
Wheat values gave way in the last
hour this afternoon, new buyers be-
coming discouraged at the glaring alb
sence Of any improvement in the mill
ing demand. Furthermore receipts In
the northwest were so large as to
form disagreeable surprise to the
bulls.
The unloading of wheat was appar-
entity altogether by small purchasers.
There were no signs that the larger
interest had been doing anything ex.
cent to leave the market pretty much
to itself. During most Of the day the
: market possessed an undertone of
nervous strength, with local traders
mostly on the buying side, This feel
ing of firmness was due to higher
quotations in Liverpool and the fact
that not until late in the session did
enough selling pressure develop to
cause a backset.

Good
Form

If you are boor among your &C.
quaintances they can severely leave
you alone; you can give the cold
shoulder to the cad in the office or the
works: you can escape the fool IN the
morning train; you can have d prior
engagement if your pet aversion asks
you to supper
But your home people are under the
memorable necessity OF living with
you A man sometimes gets into the
habit Of thinking that anything win
do for his home people He treats
them as daily bread; he does not ex-
ert himself; he reserves his best for
outsiders.
He says he likes to be homely at
home; that is very well SO long as 1t
does not mean being vulgar, He says
he likes to be at ease in his home;
very well, too, if 1t does not mean
being thoughtless.
Familiarity breeds contempt. 1t Is
not easy to be constantly patient and
profitable and pleasant TO those whom
you meet every morning at breakfast.
The breakfast table is often the great
est disillusioner More secrets Of char
acter are revealed over the bacon and
eggs than over the dessert.
There Is no severer discipline IN the
world than that of the home, and most
of us go down under it In this matter
Of courtesy.
Don't let us put off our manners
when we put on our slippers Let us
be the more considerable when it is only
our own whom we have to consider.
And Just because our home life IL pri-
vate and Is screened off from public
Judgment and is sheltered from the re-
straint of public opinion let us be the
more scrupulous that we may be void
of the offense against the heart of
love.
Behind many closed doors and drawn
blinds there lie grim tragedies, and
many OF them may be traced to seem
ingly trivial slackness in the eourte-
sizes of love.
This is the rift that has made the
music mute. Take care Of the courte-
sizes and the grand passions will take
care of themselves.

The Desirable Guest.

The person who can talk entertain
ingly is the best type Of guest at so
cial gatherings, for she who chatteis
necessarily is almost more undesirable
than one who il too quiet, for the lat
ter gives opportunity for other persons
to express themselves, while with tho
former to say even one word Is often
d struggle,
The balance between these extremes
Is the art Of stimulating temporary
companion to conversation, and at no
place is 1t more important to adopt
the correct attitude than at dinner
More than one man has been obliged
to talk so much when sitting beside
a quiet woman that he has not eaten
enough. Such conduct on the part Of
woman is decidedly inconslderate.
At dinners and also at formal lnnch-
cons it Is a good idea to watch the
plates of neiehbors, and IL one person
has been talking so much as to have
fallen behind in the course 1t is tact
full to take conversation into ones own
hands, giving the other n chance to
listen and at the same time TO eat
1t Is not good form to monopoli2e
the attention Of one neighbor to such
an extent as to prevent him or her
from talking with the person on The
other side, Often 1t is temptation
when on one side Is an attractive per
son and on the other one who II duh
but politeness makes dividing the at
tention necessary.
If one person is kept constantly II
conversation by one neighbor at q din
ner it means that he or she on the 9th
or side sits much Of the time with M
| one TO talk to, for the guest farth@'
on is certainly giving some time to Ia
person on his or her other side
