American children have the reputa-

is almost universally merited-
Children are born mere hungry little

Kind, and hat is graceful and agreea-
Bile. unless they are taught by their
elders All refined maners are things
of growth. from the animal state to
the higher human state. It has been
thing OF slow evolution.
Our remote ancestors all ate raven
ously and used their hands to tear food
into morsels. They snacked their lips,
and made loud sounds and drank
noisily.
Gradually an idea dawned upon these
more highly developed creatures that
there was such a thing as behavior,
and that it was something for which to
strive-something better than mere
impulse.
Mere conventions, mere formal cere-
monies not not indicate good manners.
Good manlers are the result of an I'M
selfish desire to avoid annoying others
and to give pleasure to ones associ-
ates
Children should be taught these
things from the time they are able to
sit upon A mothers knee. They should
be taught that their hands are not to
pull and tear the mothers hair. or
gown, or slap her face or otherwise be
offensive.
a little dog can be taught that he
must not jump on people, and put his
paws on their laps; it requires a very
short time to train the average puppy
in this manner. So a small child can
be taught to he gentle if the mother
cares to give Lhe tine and effort. And
as the child soon understands language,
il can be trained by tender, sweet
counsels to SHOW courtesy in all the
little daily matters CT life.

attributes besides a pretty face and

The women who were famous in the
18th century for their wit and attrac-
tion, were extremely clever and
learned. These pretty young women,
with their curled and powdered hair,
their brocaded frOcks and panniers,
went through a pretty severe school
ing before they were turned out as
bellies to rule society.
They were taught~Latin and mathe-
mates, besides their own language:
they had to be able to understand and
criticize poetry, and all the arts and
manners in those days were a study
in which no well bred girl could fail
Besides that they must dance more
gracefully than the women on the
stage. they had TO know something Of
music and conversation, which was
then high art. was the medium
through which they showed off their
learning, their sharp wit and intellect
Indeed. il il wasn't easy to be a belle
