Good Taste.

Good taste is the most delicate and
refined philosophy of action and man.
ners, and comes from a high noble
mind being acted upon by good breed
Ing in the home, in the first place, and
In early good, kind, gentle surround
tngs. Lincoln was the son of poverty,
was master of good taste, but all his
Infancy was EMBODIED in goodness, gen.
tleness and Quaker-like peace. Good
taste. like humor, it a great saving
salt and is the most deAcate product
of the times. A great coarse mind
may have wit and humor, say, like
Aristophanes, but it takes a truly
grand. noble mind to have in manners
the good taste of Washington, Lincoln
and Jackson. The manners of Jack
son where women and children were
concerned We're without compare and
this day they loom up as a good light
In the greatest republics history.

Boys, when you speak of your
father don't call him 1.-The old
man." OF course you are older
now han when you were taught to
call him father. You are much
smarter than you were then, you
are much wore manly looking,
your clothes fit you better, your
hat has a modern shape and your
hair is combed differently in short
flyer" than you were then. Your
father has a last years coat, a
two-year- old hat and a vest of
still older pattern. He can't write
such an elegant note as you can
and all that, but don't call him
1.-The old man." Call him father.
For years he has been rustling
around to get things together, he
has been held to the thorny path
OF uphill industry, and the bright
est half of life has gone from him
forever. But he loves you though
he goes along without saying
much about it, therefore be not so
ungratful.

Her Grace Effective.


An English woman of rank, a Ouch
ess, was very apt to forget to pay her
bills. A milliner, whose large biz
had been repeatedly ignored by the
duchess. at last determined to send
her little girl, pretty child Of ten
years, for the money which was SC
much needed.
"Be sure to say your grace, to the
duchess" said the anxious mother; and
the child gravely promised to remem
Der.
When, after long waiting, she was
pshered into the presence Of hel
grace. the little girl dropped her a bow
Of courtesy, and then, folding her
hands and closing her eyes, she said
softly:
'For what I am about to receive
may the Lord make me truly thank
full"
AS she opened her eyes and turned
her wistful gaze on the duchess, that
person turned very red, and without
delay, made out check for thu
amount due her milliner.

Lieutenant. whose smooth and graceful
manners had more than once aroused
suspicion In mysEnglish soul.
He was got up in his newest and

In his eve; he looked. in fact, the yer.

to save q life.
J. The train was very full, and pres
emily an old peasant fellow came in
with his basket of vegetables, and
looked about helplessly, treading on
everybody's toes in the meantime.
looked on my military neighbor and
waited for the storm. The dandy
arose, saluted gravely, offered the
weary old peasant his seat, and went
and stood outside.
If there is anything in thought tele'

heard me apologizing to him all the
rest of our journey together.-"My
