Have you ever noticed the charming
manners of our young men these days?
was so amused at little episode lately
when riding inethe Chestnut street car.
A woman entered the car and stood
quite near young man of unquestion-
able family connections; she was an
older woman and looked tired. Later a
woman of about 80 entered with her
arms full OF bundles. Our young hero
read his paper. however, and tried not
10 see them. Then two other women
zane into the car. Still he paid no at
tentlon. AS we reached 21st street a
woman got on and saw
him look up and then look quickly down,
hoping she would not recognize him; but
suddenly the car lurched and he looked
up involuntarily and caught her. eye.
Immediately our young friend arose
with profound bow and offered his
seat, which the lady graciously ac-
eepted. Little did she know how he
had clung TO 1t for many squares,
though there were women older and far
more tired than she standing in the
aiale. One does not expect the hard
working man to rise from his seat late
n the afternoon going home from work,
ana yet he is invariablys the ore who
aners 1t. Such are the manners of many
% The young men of today ranging in
sse from Is to %.
