Lesson In Good Manners.

When the Boy Scouts movement
was at its height, three of the young
sters journeyed from Baltimore to
Washington to be introduced to the
president. When Mr.. Taft shook hands
with them, one of the little fellows
stuck out his left hand.
fWhy do you give me your left
hand?" asked the president.
That's the way us Boy Scouts shake
hands," said the boy, with pride.
WELL" commented Mr. Taft dryly,

The venerable scholar Strengthened
up in his chair and clenched his fists.
1.-The only way for us to put an end
to this disgracefu1 evil is to reform

said with earnestness and conviction.
THE conduct of most of our murder
trials is a disgrace to our manhood,
and the abuse of the appeal is even
more disgraceful. One has only to
familiarize himself with existing con-
ditions in London and New York to
appreciate what / say. Rarely are
there more than half a dozen men
charged with murder awaiting trial
in London. In New York at the pres
ent time. so 1 am informed, there are
between thirty-fve and forty men
charged with murder awaiting trial.
Yet the two cities are about the same
size. Here in New York state there
are convicted murderers who were
sentenced to death more than a year
ago, still awaiting final action on their
appeals. And conditions in New York
state are typical of the entire coun-
try. l don't hesitate to say that the
solution of this problem is the most

itching stopped for about three days,
but when it started again, was even
worse than before. The eczema itched
SO badly I couldn't stand it any more.

some medicine, but didn't do any good.

NATURE SHOWN BY MANNERS
Call for ChivaIry and Self-ControI,
With Proper Consideration for
Others.

We are familiar with the story of
an accomplished host who drank out
of his fngerbowl to save an unsophisti-
Gated guest from embarrassment. This
is Offset by the social kindness and
tact of certain physician, famous
alike for courtesy and skill. A coun-
tryman, coming early one morning
for the doctor, was kept for break
fast. At the table the countryman
poured his hot coffee into his saucer
and set his cup on the immaculate
damask beside it. Then he looked
around the large table only to per-
ceive that he alone had done this But
before the flush could fairly show in
his face the doctor had likewise
poured his coffee into his saucer and
set the cup beside it, to the evident
great relief of his guest. There is a
saying in the Talmud that he who
causes another to blush is as If he
shed that others blood; and so con-
versely he who spares or shields an
others blush saves some wounding of
the spirit For good manners really
call for much chivalry, much heroic
self-control, and living for the mo-
ment in the experience of another For
as soon as we go below the surface
We find that manners are one with
morals, since the taproot of both is the
same. That famous order of Grants
by which Lee was spared the soldiers
pain of surrendering his sword is a
happy instance of the best" manners,
since it combines chivalry and mag
nanimity alike, a full appreciation of
the situation with a fine consideration
for another's feelings.-Harper's

1t is doubtful if there has ever been

of the modish costume which IS usual

Ancient and odd designs copied from
original Bohemian ornaments and aluo
from the barbaric Russian models are
important features of a costume this
winter and give the dash of originality
that makes a gown so fascinating.

conneoticut's New Governor.

Judge Simeon E. Baldwin, Connect
cuts new governor, is the first Demo
crat to sit in the gubernatorial chair
since Governor Morris retired In 1894.
During the campaign last fall Judge
Baldwin resented an attack made on
him by Colonel Roosevelt and demand
ed a retraction. The colonel failing to
make a satisfactory reply, the judge
issued a statement in which he an
nounced his intention of bringing suit
against the former president for SIAN
der. Later he refused to attend a din
ner at New Haven at which Mr.. Roose-
welt was the guest of honor.
Governor Baldwin is a native of New
Haven and is seventy years old. His
father was Roger Sherman Baldwin,
who was governor of Connecticut in
