The Ideal Girl and Manners in Public
By MRS. FRANK LEARNED,


TT HE eternal ideal OF woman
illness is what men hold in
their hearts about girls.
The adorable quality Of femi
ninity" is what they admire They
prefer, as a man has said. a girl
whose "quietness OF manner.
sweet freshness of appearance
and general air of modesty, re-
pose and good breeding are a
welcome rest from the fash Of
paint and powder" one sees too
often
Men like wholesome minded,
home lowing girls, THE ideal
girl" said man. us not an an
gel, but just a woman She has
pure, strong character. she
makes the most of her environ
ment to improve her mind Her
love OF home is intense, and. -
she expects to have a home OF
her own some DAY. she learns TO
cook, to sew and to mend broken
hearts
she treasures her instincts OF
motherhood She cultivates the
gentle ways OF woman. She in
spires a man to make the best Of
his manhood
The charming, womanly sensi-
bic educated girl knows that she
must understand the ordering Of
her household in practical ways,
The modern girl is in danger OF
losing the gift Of sincerity The
craze TO pose. to exaggerate, to
be unusual to say anything but
what one really thinks, is a dan
ser,
Talking at random is so much
easier than taking the trouble to
think, For instance. a girl who
made the following protests was
aiming 10 be unlike herself, TO de-
stroy her finer standards, instead
Of having the grace and courage
10 live bv the best
"A girl" she protested. does
not want to be called charming
That implies a sort Of gentleness.

otherwise there Is not space for
pedestrians. People should not
stand in groups talking in the
street and thus preventing 9TH
ers from passing.
A man lifts his hat when max
ing his apology to woman. He
raises his hat when Offering any
Civility to a woman. such as Civ
ing up seat In a public convey
ance, or opening a door in any
public place, or picking up a
purse or anything that has been
dropped. These civilities are ac-
knowledged by a slight bow and
the words. Thank YOU" These
are not triflng courtesies. They
are important and imperative.
1t is not good manners to loi-
ter, looking in shop windows;
one should walk on quickly from
place to place,
1t is provincial for man to
walk between two women. His
place is at the outside Of the
pavement He should not take n
woman by the arm or elbow. I'M
less absolutely necessary on a
crossing to protect her from sud
den danger.
Voices should be restrained in
public Good manners demand
that private affairs should not be
discussed within the hearing of
strangers. The mentioning of
names Of absent persons, or any
gossip about others in public is
breach of etiquette. The worst
manners are those Of persons vino
seem to wish to attract attention
by loud talking, laughing or MAX
ing demonstrative gestures.
A weu-bred person is polite TO
all sorts and conditions of people.
BY the very dellcacy Of his cour-
tesv he avoids annoying or Of
Tending anyone. The neglect OF
politeness in matters which seem
trivial reveals the character and
training OF the individual
The manner. of doing a very
simple action reveals good breed
ing or the lack Of H. The con-
slant observance of the apparent

of manners and character

interest in books music and art,
an ability to talk we'll and a hor
ror Of slang. Too much charm of
personality implies feeling.
Nobody wants to have feeling
In these days 1t is best to be a
rough rider over feelings. A girl
now likes to be an out-and out
sport. She goes in for fencing,
boxing, riding to hounds, swim
ming and sailing Dancing must
even be of a sporty kind"
With natural charm and per
sonallty this girl was on the
way to destroy some of her most
attractive possessions All that
she proclaimed SO vehemently
was an afectation, a pretense.
A girl may love sport without
becoming unfemlnine. If she dis
claims interest in literature and
art she is usually talking insin-
cerely and concealing her knowl-

leases of Chicago and other cities may all be forgotten
But Mr. Louis Mueller does not intend to be forgotten if
HE can help it.

The Elderly Are Often

Every thinking man and WON
an knows how hard and nerve
racking is the work Of a trolley
conductor on the crowded lines

how unpleasant 1t is to be pas
senger on one of these cars at
rush hours we have only TO exert
the imagination little to realize
what it must be TO remain on
that car hour after hour; to
avoid collisions with motor cars
and trucks and nedestrians; to
stop and start at every corner at
the exact spot and moment to
please a vast army of travellers
and shoppers and business peo-
pie, and TO be subjected to all the
ten thousand annoyances which
crowds of human beings gener-
ate.

TN the best modern hotels the

The men who patronize It are

oplectic, and usually try to hide
the odor OF their lack of sanctity

innocent, but always obvious.
To use strong drink to excess
is always disgrace.
Intemperance in eating should
be.
Drink Is not the only enemy
YOU can put into your mouth 10
steal away your brains.
Excess baggage in way OF food
supply will work the robbery just
as well.
In order to be acceptable TO So

his state OF mind; but when
youth sets forth upon this voca-
ton it seems a misfortune for
him to begin his work in this
state Of nervous tension and
needless irritability with unof-
Tending passengers.
In any position which necessi-
tates being thrown with thou
sands of ones fellowmen Of all
classes good nature and courtesy
are rare assets. They are fac
tors In future success. They lead
to promotion and growth. They
conserve ones forces.
Nothing wastes and dissipates
our energies more than the habit
Of being easily irritated over
small matters.
One Of the most important re-
solves any young man can mako
when he sets out in any vocation
in life is to cultivate an1iabiiity
and poise in his dealings with his
fellows. And to add courtesy and
an agreeable manner.
He will be astonished as he Gull
tivates these qualities to see how
many Of the worrisome happen
ings of daily life disappear before
smile and how many troubles
vanish when met with poise and
equanimity.
Every street car conductor
needs to realize that to greater
or less degree he is influencing
the feelings Of every person who
boards his car.
A nervous, tired and desmond
ent passenger can be made stil
more nervous by a disagreeable
and brusque conductor, and can
be made correspondingly less
nervous and irritable by a gra-
cious and kindly presence in the
person of the conductor.
Each one OF US sends forth vi
brations through every waking
moment. And those vibrations
are influencing everyone who
comes in our vicinity. Whether
they are good or bad, peaceful or
warlike. restful or irritating, de-
Ponds on our state of mind.
Smile a Little, Smile a
Little as You Pass
Along.
Smile a little, smile a little as
you pass along;
Not alone when life is pleasant,
but when things go wrong.
Do not make the way seem hard
er by a sullen face:
Smile a little, smile little;
brighten up the place.
