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.

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
