Good Manners.
BIZ DoRoTHT DIx
a's AlEhesa Pnia Wesnan v

OOOu
OF the value of good manners in
business it is superfluous to speak.
When we pick out our lawyer, or doc
tor, or dentist, ninety-nine times out
of a hundred we go to the one we do,
not because of his peculiar skill and
knowledge, but because he has an
agreeable personality. He has made
himself charming 10 us on some oc-
caSion, and so when we need profess
sional skill we appeal to him.
For the same reason we patronize
certain shops. The thing that catches
and holds us is not the marked down,
bargain sale, but the good manners
of some clerk who makes us feel that
she is interested in serving US instead
of her wearing the air of a grand
duchess condescending to bestow
favor on a meniai.
1t is is the home. however, that
good manners should have their great
and perfect work, and where they
should function the whole year around
instead of only during Good Manners
Week.
We talk great deal about home,
sweet home, and the sanctity of the
home, and the sacred influence of the
home, and most of the home stuff is
bally rot. The average home isn't
sweet It isn't peaceful, and there is
nothing sacred about it. 1t is a place
of storm and strife, and temper and
nerves, and nagging, and rudeness,
and everybody in it wants to get away
from it. And the children do get
away from it just as soon as they can.
The whole trouble with the home
is bad manners. Nobody considers it
necessary to be courteous to their
nearest and dearest. Nobody even
dreams of being as considerate of the
sensibilities of the members of their
own family as they are to perfect
strangers. Nobody takes the trouble
to pay the little compliments, say the
little pleasant things. or show the
appreciation of the things done for
their happiness and comfort that they
would do outsiders.
Mother says to Mr.. Smith. Surely
you may smoke anywhere. like the
smell of a good cigar but she raises
ructions every time father gets out
his pipe.
Mother says to Mrs. Jones who up
sets her coffee cup on the table, 1T
is nothing. Don't mention it, but
when Johnny spots the table cloth he
is sent bowling from the room.
When husband sees Mrs. Smith in
her new frock he tells her how young
and beautiful she looks, but when
some caustic remarks about old sheep
dressed as spring lamb. When
Johnny and Mamie go visiting they be-
have like little ladies and gentlemen,
but when they are at home they could
give a hoodlum gang points on max
ing a rough house.
The remedy for the whole domestic
situation is the practice of good man
ners at home. If the members OF a
family would just be plainly, decently
polite to each other, it would do more
to stop divorce, and keep young peo-
in the world. Make the good man
ners week last the year round.

Each one contains 152 separate

But more wonderful than the Ian

in making and presenting them to me.
If there ever were two things made
for the pure pleasure and love of their
making. IL was these two lanterns.
Bill told me so.
And there isn't enough money in
this world to buy them from me.
Because they were made of love.
And there is no more precious ma

shall say that love is that way
priceless and warm.

would not quarrel over a fellow, but
don't think she has done right or he
either.
Am I doing right by not quarrelI-
ing with her? LONELY DOT.
Perhaps good-looking girls have
some advantage over the others, but
charm and good personality mean
more than pretty face The thing
the young woman did was selfish and
unkind. 1t shows you she is not your
friend. I agree with you that there
is no use in Quarrelling because If the
young man cared more for her than
for you you should be glad to have
him go. Naturally he would give you
up when he felt he liked some one
else better, just as you would have
given him up if some one had come
into your life for whom you cared
more. Let this experience be a thing
of the past and let your interest be in
the present and future blessings which
come to you daily.

prosperity in the United States 1t is
quite possible. says the Rache Review,
to demonstrate that it has been the
foundation for every period of pros

element in the business uprise which
has taken place during the last year.
The roads have expended every cent
that could possibly be diverted for up
keep and equipment in 1892, and thei=
expenditures have been very much
larger than in 1920. They have been
liberal purchasers OF steel rails, To-
comotives, cars, lumber, and thou

purchases have been the backbone of
the steeF and iron activity. They have
