ETIQUETTE

A gentleman should never ask to call upon lady, but wait for her to signify that his presence in her home will be agreeable. A card from her giving notice of 6 day at home, or containing an invitation to some en- tertainment. of course gives him the entree to her home.
 It is tho rare man or woman who succeeds dn making an Introduction effectively. The common fault is to gabblo or humble names in careless haste or foolish embarrassJnent, thereby leaving the persons present cd in total ignorance of each others identity and robbing the ceremony of its usefulness and meaning. Delib- eration and distinct enunciation are essential to the adequate perform ance of this very important social rite. It is no disgrace when the name of a guest escapes a host or hostess, and in such a case. 1t Is proper to say quietly. Forgive me. but I cannot recall your name at this moment; or T am very stupid. and at this instance your name escapes me-; and then, having received the required information, to proceed with thA Ant1od0ction

AT \ DANCE.

''I notice, the Observant Citizen comments on the habit some couples have of pressing their cheeks togeth- CT while dancing. Yet some of the incest girls I dance with q am q young man of 22) do it; and I think it rather nice."
 Answer-Tt is not a nice habit, even if some nice girls do it. In fact, it is forbidden by the police in some cities at public dances. I have seen 8 girl kiss her partner at a dance. while they were dancing. He un- doubtedly thought it very nice; but the matrons of the dance requested the young woman to leave the ball. room, and she never received another invitation to attend. A safe and wise rule is never to do anything in a public assemblage which will arouse discussion.

Birthday Bio-Briefs
 Famous Women
MARY.

The wife of Cleophas was mother of James, Jude, loses, Simeon and Salome. C1eophas and Joseph, the husband of the Virgin Mary, were probably brothers, which made these Marys sisters. Her children are therefore represented as the broth CTS of our Lord. She early believed in the Saviour. attended his preach ing, and ministered to his comfort. She witnessed his crucifxion and went with Mary Magdalene early to the sepulchre. It was this Mary who saw the angel, and heard from him those cheering words, Be not afraid; 1; ye seek Jesus of Nazareth; he is risen," etc.
