the table and watching him eat.
What would you do?
Answer: [ would buy the very best
book on etiquette that l could get,
and [ would mark the passages that
dealt with the particular sins that
he commits, then L would write him
a little letter, because you can say
things in a letter that you cannot
say by word of mouth, telling him
very frankly that felt sure that he
did not realize his lack of table
manners, and that l was giving him
a chance to correct them.
If he is a silly, vain fool, he will
never forgive you for this; but II
he is a big, broad man, whose early
educat ton in the niceties of life was
neglected, he will thank you for it..
And, anyway. whether he is mad or
glad, he will never eat peas with his
knife again, because he will have
found out that doing so makes him
d figure of fun, and thereby you
will acquire merit.
1t is an amazing thing that any
one in this day and generation
should ignore his table manners, for
nothing in the world so surely marks
a mans breeding as the way he eats.
Yet, every day you see clever, self
made chaps who have had the brains
and energy to forge ahead in their
business, who still feed like pigs.
They realize the Importance of dress
and appearance. They are barbered
up to the minute, and have copied
the clothes of fashionable men about
town. But they have never thought
it worth while to initiate the table
manners of gentlefolks.
Yet to be able to eat like a gentle
man is one of the important factors
in their success.
Last year banker told me that
he had been watching for several
years the career of most promising
young man in his employ. The
young chap was handsome and well
dressed, he had energy and initiative,
he was faithful and trustworthy, and

a new branch he was slated for man.

Three South Carolina
Cities Enter Contest
For Branch u. S. Bank

COLUMBIA, S. c., July 21.-Three
cities of South Carolina are making
determined effort to secure the
branch bank of the federal reserve
bank of Richmond, the establishment
of which in one of the two Carolinas
was proposed recently. GreenvilIe,
Columbia and Spartanburg have
made bids for the establishment of
the branch in each of the cities.
The desire Of Spartanburg to be-
come the location of the proposed
branch was recently explained be.
fore the Asheville, N. c., Rotary
club by DR.. Henry N. Snyder, pres
ident of Wofford college, and E. S.
Tenant, of Spartanburg. According
to DIR. Snyder, the cities of eastern
icSrth Carolina are so dependent
upon Richmond that a district bank
established in that section of the
state would not benefit them mate

Speaking of his own city, which
he pointed out is beyond the bounds
or service from the Virginia cap
1tal, DR.. Snyder declared that S22.-
900 people would be served by a
branch of the federal reserve bank
if situated In Spartanburg. He re-
marked that the value of textile
mills in South Carolina within an
S0-mile radius of Spartanburg are
valued at $112,000,00O.
A leading bank of Columbia has
sent out missionaries to the fl
nancial institutions of South Caro-

for the proposed branch bank. An.
sWers have been received from MANY
OF the banks in the state giving IA

PUZZLED.
Answer: 1t depends on the price
you set on yourself, on what you
care for most in the world, and very
much on the kind Of man you are
marrying.
In deciding this question, your age
is a most important factor. Under
no circumstances should a young
girl marry for money, because youth
must have romance and illusions
and re and passi And the girl
who does not love her husband is
almost certain to find some man
whom she does love. When young
woman marries for money she sells
her soul,
But with a middle-aged woman
the matter is different. Life has
long ago dissipated her romance and
wrecked her illusions. Romantic
love is done for, for her.. She can
neither feel it nor inspire it, but she
is capable of fine and splendid af-
lection for man, a glorified friend
ship that is more comfortable than
any romantic love can be- and there
is no reason why financial consid-
Grafton should not enter into the
forming OF this friendship.
Such woman would not actually
marry man for his money, though
undoubtedly it would be a great at
traction to woman who had al
ways been poor and worked hard for
her living.

is generally personally likable and
practically always interesting, be.

troll, a man of force and power to
succeed. And all Of these qualities
go to the making up of the kind of
husband who is interesting to live
with, of whom his wife can we'll Re
proud. and to whom a woman c"n
be good pal.
And there is no discounting the
fact that the flesh pots are mighty
handy to have around the house,
and that a lovely home and a posi-.

and pleasures that wealth can give.
are comforting things for women to
have in their middle age and old age.
