Good form Company Manners. To begin with, there should be no such thing as -company manners." True courtesy springs from the heart, and it is only selfishness that makes tome of us Invariably turn a smiling face to a atranger and reserve our cowls and bad tempers for our near est and dearest It is as that children should early be instruct ed in manners as that they should read and write. If young ieoile are taught to be deferential to their elders, to be polite and generous to their playfel lows, and are InBtructed In all the small courtesies of life tbey will have been given something whlrb will help them greatly to achieve success In after i years, no matter what their position, j Bot children are great Imitators, and it : Is Impossible to teach them these things Interest tbe general public, but only the friends of tbe parents. The old English custom was to tie up tbe door knocker with a white kid glove as an announcement of the happy event. A pretty modern method la to have baby's name, without any prefix, writ ten or engraved, on a tiny card. This Is fastened to the Tlslting card of the mother with a small bow of white ribbon and sent to relatives and friends through the mall. On receiving sucb an announcement friends call and Inquire after the health of mother and child, leaving cards for the former. Some persona leave them for the bnby also, bnt this seems rather absurd. Instead of call tag one may send a note of congratu lation or write a little message of I felicitation on one's card important Gifts may lie sent at this time or 1 later, when the christening tasesjiiace. as may be preferred. Good Form In Dress. Few women know bow to put on their clothes. This sounds like a very I startling statement, but let n stop 1 and think over the matter quietly. Dow frequently we see women wna dainty, wefi ma3e and even well cut blouses, and yet how few appreciate the beauty of the garment, and why? Because the blouse Is not pulled down If tbe father and mother are not cour- , til(htj at ttie wast line and fnstened teous to eacn otner. Consideration for others is the key note of all good manners, and tbe man or woman who lacks this important quality can never bope to have any thing but tbe most transparent sort of "company manners." Children should be tanght to eat quietly, to tke soup from tbe side of spoon without mak- j In place either by books and loops or j safety pins. Then. too. the coiiar : onbably not carefully boned so that it will fit the neck snugly. Each woman should study tbe shape of ber owo neck (not some one else'si and find l Just where the bones must he placed In order to make the collar fit well. A still better plan Is to tane a piec ing a disagreeable noire, to biesk their I . heaTT Dnner and cut a pattern for bread with their nngers ana miner it on the plate, never on the tablecloth or the palm of the land; never to bite fruit at tbe table, but to cut It with a allver knife and convey the pieces to the month with the nngers or a fork. Dnrlag tbe process of mastication tbe mouth should be kept tightly closed, and naturally a child should never be allowed to talk with the mooth full. Tbe bead should never be bent to drink from a tumbler or cup. but tbe cup or Class should be lifted to tbe mouth. Yet child should be cautioned not to lift aaucer from tbe table when eating from it After all. the great point Is with both young and old to mako the everyday manner, to rood that the -company manners" can bo left to take care of themselvea. . Birth Announcements. Many people do not like the Idea of announcing tbe birth of a child Id 0 newspapers, say. Florence Howe B They argue that It si not a matter to tha collar which exactly fits tbe throat and then have every collar made from that pattern. Curve It down uuoer the chin so that the collar will not break, then let It stand np hizh Just back of the ears and In the middle of the back. Almost a Tragsdy. "It was a lovely night Tbe stars were twinkling, tbe moon was shining, the dogs were bowling, and the cat. were holding forth In chorus. I was strolling along tbe track when sud denly I saw a beam lying across tbe rails. I looked at it but much as I wished. 1 hadn't the power to move I was In a tremble. I did not know what to do. for Just at that moment I beard tbe rumble and roar and rattle of a coming express. Nearer and near er It came. Louder and louder grew tbe noise. What was I to doT I was powerless. And then tbe engine leaped at tbe beam and passed on unscathed. It was H was a moonbeam!" London Answers. Jim Baxter touud himself on so ocean liner one uay oui sternum across tbe Atlantic ocean from Lug- land. A lady was sltUug lu a steamer chair well wrapped lu rugs aud ber face shielded by a veil which also serv ed tbe purpose of keeping on bor but She waa reading some letters she had received at the ship's postoRlco aud seemed very Intent ou them Jltu passed ber several times aud ou one of these passages saw a letter slip from ber fingers and go sailing before the wind along the deck. Jliu gave chase, captured the letter and returned It to the lady. "Thank you very much," she said o graciously that Jim waa emboldened to say something In return. Auother and more Important reason for his address tag her was something familiar to blio Id tbe lady's voice. "It's not pleasant steaming In the teeth of the wind." he remarked. "It la not I looked for some corner where I wouldn't get It but couldn't find one." If you will permit me to take your chair over there behind the officers" quarters 1 think you will be nioro com fortable." "You are very kind. I shall be much obliged." Jim lugged the chair and the robes to the position named, the lady reseated herself, and Jim spread ber rugs over ber. There was a cbalr standing near, and the lady turned her face toward It This Jim regarded as a hint weDt for the chair and was soon seated be side bis uew found friend. "Have yon been abroad long. Mr Baxter?" asked the lady. Jim started. "Too know me?" be asked. "Certainly. 1 have seen you often. Tou were once devoted to a very inti mate friend of mine." "Jennie Archibald?" "Yes. I am sorry to say that from what she told me yon must have treat ed ber very badly." "I treat ber badly? I supposed that I was tbe one who was badly treated." "Of course I haven't heard your side of the story " "X'nr will von. Men have not the j privilege of telling their side of such stories." "Consider yourself so privileged." "The permbwlon is not available." "Why sof "Because a woman In sucb a case will invariably decide In favor of the woman. It would be useless for me to give my version of the story. Besides, even with your permission. 1 would not dispute the word of Miss Archibald." "That's very nice of yon. Is there no other reason why you would not defend yourself?" "None except that I feel tbe same toward ber as I felt before our break." There was no reply to this for awhile; then Baxter added. "Now that we have finished the subject perhas yoo will make yourself known to me " "it u nnf finished 1 have a wo man', curiosity to know bow you felt toward my friend before tbe rupture. 8urely bad you loved ber yoq would not have deserted her for that Ellla girt." "I did no uch thing." "Yon did." hotly. "I beg your pardon. It wa. Jennie who walked off one evening at the as sembly room, with an old admirer Martindale leaving me In tbe lurch." "Yon abould be ashamed to defend your action by soch a statement You knew"- "Pardoo me" Baxter Interrupted. "I do not care to discos, my private af fair, with a atranger." And, rising in i a huff, he walked away. The next day the blp steamed in a fog. The unknown lady sat In the 'same position, veiled, as before, and Baxter walked by ber who nis nose id tbe air. Suddenly a voice came from the man In tbe crow's nest: "Iceberg abead. Port your helmr There were many people on deck, and tbey beard tho warning with terror. Through tbe fog suddenly loomed a mountain of ice. Tben wa. beard a grating sound, and tbe .hip .werved to tarboard.

There was a good general supply of livestock at the yard, at the opening today, receipt, over the holiday aggregating more than 3000 head, the total, being 183 cattle, 74 calve., 24.15 sheep, 381 hog. and 72 horses. Trade at the outset waa fair ly well distributed but with beef stock the most active features and on the whole price, were well main tained. About .even carloads of steer, and cow. were disposed of during tho first half of the day, and In the steer Divi sion the best offering, brought 7c, the hlah price last quoted. Other steers moved at $6.50 to $6.90. Mo.t of the cow. that figured In the eariy trade were more or less on quality, and as a result the prices paid rang ed from $5 to $5.75. Uooo graoe heifers sold at $6.25. Calve, were in good demand, the best offering, .ell- Ing readily at $8. LIVE STOCK MARKET IS QUIET BUT FIRM arms.

What ad vancement have women made lnce 1818? At thl. time 6 atntes In tho uulon are giving equal suffrage to women. Those state, are Utah, Col orado, Wyoming, Washington , Kan- sas and California. Oregon glvea property owners the right to vote at school elections. Fourteen states of the union give woman the guard ianship of her children. Women are filling honorable position, of trust to day. She haa extended her work Into all avenues, work that fifty years ago would nave been deemed a shame and unwomanly for her to attempt. And she Is doing It In a modest and dig nified manner. Right here conies the question: Are women lowering menu wages uy ao- ng mens' work cheaper than men would do the same work? If thl. I. run then here 1. one capital reason why women should have the ballot, that she can have a voice In legisla ting In regard to her labor. It Is the only solution to the problem. We allow our women to work to support themselves and their families. Why not give her the right to the bal lot that slie may protect herself also. Judge Ben Llndsley says; "Colorado, since adopting woninns' suffrago bns the sunest most humane, the most progressive, and the most scientific luw relating to the child to be found on any statute books In the world." Seventy-five years women were not admitted to the colleges. At that time there was a greater opposition against the higher education of wom en than there Is now against her po litical freedom. Tbe wise prophets said that It would be unwomanly; that the home, would bo broken up; that the children would be neglected; that the socks would go undarned; but women forged ahead. She wa. not scared out by -the old customs and traditions. She made a place for her self In the colleges, and she ha. re tained ft with dignity and honor. Some of the brighter Intellect, that we have today are college bred women. I don't think that the home, have Buffered, nor the echldren In tbem. It la quality we need and not quantity. Who wishes to go back to the hand looms and knitting needles? Experience ha. taught u. that In order to raise the standard of tho home we must educate the mother, broaden the fields of her thoughts, lot her be on an equal footing with her husband that our men may be men In tbe truest sense. You can't keep down one-half of hu manity and elevate the other half. Tbe men of our country have advan ced In every respect. They are be- coming more liberal In their view.. They are getting out of the narrow channel of the past; a feeling for the universal welfare of humanity 1. on tho ascendency, and our men havl not come to thl. point by keeping women of their country In the same; line, that our great grandmother. followed. Take th savages. Their women are treated a. mere beast, of burden. In Turkey what are tho women? They are no mora than plaything, tor their lords and masters. In India women are not supposed to bavo souls. What ha. been the consequence In those countries where women have been treated as lower creatures? There has been tbe Invariable result that the men have been of a lower type. Where women have been advanced, men have advanced. You dim't keep down ths mother, and expect the son. to be well de veloped menially and physically. Scleuce teaches us that the son la more likely to Inherit from tho moth er. Therefore tho mother, of our country ought to have every privilege politically that the father, and hus bands have, and educationally. The oppoaliloo say that the horn. U tho sphere of women. Certainly It la. Voting will not lessen women.' In flunco In the home, but lucres. It by giving her power to make law. for the safeguard of the homo and her children. To hear some people talk you would think women would bo ob liged to give up home and work In order to vole. It doe. not lake a man long to go once In two year, to the poll. J Jrou ln of ,,',"r' and generally they do not consider It . vnrv arduous task. I do not .ee J why It should take a woman any long er, or that she wouui n io negiw i home. I have heard of some men who were so solicitous of their wives' wcliraro that they considered the duty of voting too luborlous. Still these same men would allow their wives to carry In all of the stove wood and light the fires. Some even say that the polls are not a suitable place for women to frequent. If su h Is the case It Is high time that the women did take the matter up and go to the polls and clean things up . In advancing this flimsy and dis paraging excuse these men are only giving themselves away by showing whut corrupt places are allowed to ex ist through their Indolence or even their aid. Also the opposition bring up that women would want to fill of Oce. What If they did? They will not trv to fill and office for which they are not competent. and as for sheriff. Judging from tho number of male aspirants for that office, me men would bo only loo willing to re lieve the women of that duty. Another worn out excuse Is that If women had tho ballot they neces sarily wouuld have to go to war. I. not the time coming when there will be no war? And even If there should be war we find that women do their part, bot always In tho field, but moro often In the hospitals where her labor, are of great value. Besides I might ask where would there be any men to send If there were no women? Also tbe oposliig side claim that Increasing the number of votes would Increaso the expense of the election. ' If that theory were true, then cut down the male vote to tho bead of tbo family. But every man ha. not a fam ily nor has every woman. Thern has been advancement, but It I. far from being complete. Human society I. never at a standstill. Gov ernments are either advancing or re ceding. Tho laws of our western 1 slates are more advanced and liberal than are eastern and southern states. Some of tbe law. of the older statea are worthy of the dnrk ages. Thera are six states In the union, namely: Tennesse, Dcloware. Maryland. Vir ginia, Geogla. and Florida, which have laws giving tho father the right at his death to take away from his wid ow the guardianship of hi. child and give It to any one else. Ajd In most states the father Is the sole guardian of the children so long a. he live.. I. this right, or just? Ask any moth er. How long do you tninx sucn laws would exist If women had tho right to abolish them. We see hundreds of uneducated men going to the poll, to vote, men who cannot write their own name., men who are not American born cltt xens and such men help to make tho law. of thl. state. And Intelligent American women, the deacendont. In some Instance, of those men who fought In the revolution, are obliged to stand back, are not conaldered citi zens) In the true sense of the word. In Increasing the vote the quality I. Increased more than th. quantity, since there are more moral than Im moral women. I think woman will gladly resign the privilege, accorded to her a. de pendants and Inferior, through cus tom, and accept a substantial equality. Shall we allow the new new republic of China to take the lead as It started out to do by enfranchising the .women equally with the men? If w. do, moro shame to us. Wo feel grateful to our Revolutionary father, for the great work that they did. But they left the work Incompleted through bloodshed what wo can accomplish by mean of the ballot today. Tho same theory holds good now and forever. Taxa tion without representation I tyranny.
