The Man In the Case Since a woman was created there has been an awful stir About the part she plays on earth all blamo is lnid on her. Let any wickedness be done, at any time or place. And saints and sinners do declare, "A woman in the case!" Some fool to suicide inclined blows out his little brain, v "Now mark my words a woman!" every prophet will exclaim, Or if some fool another fool dis patches from this life, It's significantly mentioned, "Ho has a pretty wife." If a man, a thief by nature, steals his employer blind, And goes alone to Canada, the girl was "left behind." Or if he's seen a-talking with a wom an on the way, "The woman in the Case goes, too," the dally papers say. Now this thing makes us women all so miserably feel, But for our dire existence, men would never kill nor steal; In fact, if Eve to Adam the Lore had never given, This earth had so continued a subur ban sort of heaven. It occurs to mo,, however, from an other point of view, Had we ne'er been given Adam, wo could have a heaven, too. If the world were only women, we could keep it from crime, For doesn't the "old Adam" work the mischief every time? It was Eve who gave the apple that has brought us all our woo; But with no one there to take It, she could never have done so. Though men will kill and steal for us, because we are so dear, You should mind they fix our valuo by their own existence hero. When you come to think It over, one conclusion's very sure. Had they never been created wo would no'r have sought to luro Their good souls from paths of vir tue; they from blame are not exempt Do we lead them to temptation, they have tempted us to tempt. With this new light on the subject, rather singular it seems; But instead it's plainly plural, in reality it means, When the blame for any action to Its fountain head you trace, You will ever find a woman, and a man are in tho case. flora Mcdonald. npHE ART OF BEING polite is not. I one of tho lost or neglected arts; it is one of tho superficial ly studied arts. Politeness is tho outward expression of an harmonious combination of deep-rooted princi ples. Among tho principles which form the ground work of politeness aro: truthfulness, sincerity, ten derness and charity. That porsons laying claim to considerable profi ciency in this art havo overlooked tho groundwork is sometimes painfully apparent, Unless decorated china has been properly fired It will not bear wear and washing. Until politeness gets Into tho blood It will prove but superficial, under the stress of discomfort or criticism. According to Emerson, tho train ing of a child ought to begin with its grandmother. Blood tolls In tho making of a gentleman; a lady. It is usually assumed that those raro and unique personalities belong to tho aristocracy of a nation. They may, but there Is much to provont their coming of such a rank. Tho art of being polite does not Ho with those living within imaginary social lines. Wherever conditions aro favorable to honesty, sincerity, tenderness, charity, and liko virtues, tho mastory rz vv .1 r?S of the art of being polite may fol low. A woodsmnn may have as fa vorable an opportunity to advance in politeness as a banker, and the housewife on $20 per week as her neighbor with ten times that in come. "Saint-Oaudens was extreme ly modest and he was given to under rating his powers in other directions, from childhood he confidently ex pected to bo a great artist." A youth may view with uncertain ty his capacity to rise to distinction among men of affairs, but ho may bo confident that it lies within him to master tho art of being polite. For ho may possess himself of tho groundwork on which to build, and by diligent toll ho may with his own hands raise tho superstructure. At home tho children and young people have some degree of training in politeness. Aro they duly mado aware of the aim of politeness? That It is not a mask for reception days or formal functions; but a system of training for tho harmonious unfold ing of deep-rooted principles. To becomo an authority on correct so cial usages were the study of a life time and only persons born and bred to a career may aspire to such dis tinction. On the other hand, tho humblest as well as tho greatest among us may master tho art of treating with unfailing charity, ten derness, sincerity and truthfulness our fellow men. Undoubtedly the most Important social function on the Bay tho past week was the reception tendered Thursday afternoon by Mrs. F. K. Gettlns and Mrs. 6. A. Sehlbredo at their home In honor of Mrs. W.
