Or The enormous multiplication of books, newspapers and periodicals, has made moderns generally more a reading than a talking people. It was old Thomas Fuller "who said: "The study of books is a languish ing and feeble motion, that heats not, whereas conference teaches and ex ercises at once. I love stout expres sions among brave men, and to have them speak as they think." It is also among the Proverbs that "iron sharpeneth iron ; so a man sharpen eth the countenance of his friend." While it is admitted that conversa tion cannot be taught, it has been demonstrated that it is proner to lay down certain general rules by which the talker may at least promote the comfort of the company in which he finds himself. Here are some con densations in point : Do not talk "shop." Variety is the life of conversation. Speak of vourself as little as possible. Do not mistake the flippant for tho witty. Beware of an impatience to inter rupt others. Beware of uneasiness when others interrupt you. To listen well is almost as indis pensable a3 to talk well. Nobody can be expected to talk sense in a ball-room. Choose a conversational style adapted to your company. ' The age of Great Talk has been succeeded by that of SmallTalk. There are persons who speak a moment before they have thought. In a general conversation never attempt to joke with your superiors. The basis of all ordinary social conversation must necessarily be small talk. Be patient when elderly peoplo are garrulous. Respect old age even when it twaddles. No gentleman will sprinkle his conversation with indelicate allusions or double meanings. To use many circumstances ere you come to matter is wearisome ; and to use none at all is blunt. A specialist can never make a good conversationalist. His mind runs always in the same groove. We should never say anything which any of the company can rea sonably wish we had left unsaid. It is a great misfortune not to have wit enough to talk well nor judgment enough to hold your tongue. Do not cive another, even if it be a better, version of a story already told by one of your companions. Do not talk too much. Even those who gathered round Macaulay longed occasionally for "flashes of silence." Never "make fun" of personal de fects. Think of the children who mocked at Elijah : "Go up, thou bald head, go." Avoid elaborate discussion of polit ical and religious subjects, as it can not fail to awaken feelings of irrita tion and dislike. The true spirit of conversation con sists less in displaying one's own cleverness than in bringing out tho cleverness of others. A good thing loses its goodness on repetition, just as claret and olives pall upon the palate when they enter into our daily fare. The most successful talker is the man or woman who has most to say that is sensible and entertaining on the greatest number of subjects. No style of conversation is more acceptable than the narrative, be cause this does not carry an air of superiority over the rest of the cora- panv. However much in the right it is good to yield when you perceive that persistence in ventilating your opin ions will result in open variance. Be careful how' you distribute praise or blame to your neighbors. Some of those present will have their prejudices or their partialities, which you will be sure to offend. The Ticking of a deck. Slight though the ticking of a clock may be, its sudden cessation has a wonderful influence upon the in mates of a room in which the time keeper is located. A dim realization of something wrong steals over the senses a feeling as if something of value had been lost, or a friend had gone away, perhaps never to return, or as if some of the children were sick, until suddenly some one looks up and exclaims: "Why, the clock's stopped I" And immediately the ill- ueuned forebodings dissipate, the little shadow of gloom melts away, and as the winding-up process is completed, and the cheery ticking recommences, the family circle re gains its wonted buoyancy of spirits and the members wonder what it was that made them feel so gloomy a few moments before. Hungar and conversation are the best dinker sauce. Whoever makes the fewest persons uneasy is the best bred in the com pany." Nothing should appear at a cold collation ,which requires carving or cannot b easily helped. The choice of a wife or husband is the most erious thing that a man or woman has to decide upon. Do not garch your table napkins. A napkin fiat is not soft and pliable is manifestly unfit for its purpose. At a picaic never use your best plate, glasSror china; so shall you avoid mucjrheart-burning and irrita tion of temper. Absence Quakes the heart of host and guest grow fonder; they relish one another all the better for anjn terval of separation. Speaking of dinners, it is said that "the politician who keeps a good cook is a tdwerof strength to his party." Marriago is the mother of the world. It preserves kingdoms and fills cities and churches, and Heaven itself. Jeremy Taylor. When a woman is very pretty one never looks at her dress ; and when the dress is very striking one forgets to look at the woman. There can be no surer proof of low origin, or 01 an innate meanness 01 disposition, tnan to De always talc ing ana unuKiug ol using guuiecu The ball is the paradise of youth and love. When we have, turned forty we regard it as a weariness and a delusion, and denounce it, perhaps, as fit only for fools. Conversation should be series of pauses linked together by a few suit able words; many people,Jhowever, in their anxiety to bringout their words, forget their pauses. Let your talk be always adapted carefull v to time and place. Don't prate about homeopathy to a doctor, or the blessings of celibacy to a young lady engaged to be married. Plain English and pure, from the well undoflled of the best writers and speakers let that be the vehicle in which your opinions are conveyed, and the plainer and purer the better. Wear little jewelry. A man never looks to less advantage than when he enters into competition with a jeweler's show window. The love of charms, and trinkets, and rings is a survival of barbarism. Be generous, be a gentleman; that is, be equitable, refined, genial, just in the interpretation of motives, prompt to forbear and forgive, Jatient, humane, tender, courteous, f thou dost seek to realize the lofti est excellences of the Christian char acter and humbly strive3t to imitate the Master's charity, patience, en durance, and self-sacrifice, then shall it bo said of thee, as Tennyson lias said of his friend, Arthur Hallam: NBMCfKr -1??lj1 THE GREAT WiflgSftciic BARBOUR'S: FOR LIVER ISEASE VUDTAII& Bitterorbadtasteinmoinh; Ollffli lUIHwt tongue coated white or catered with a Drown nir; pain in the back, sides, or joints often mistaken for Rheumatism; soar stomach ; lou of appetite ; sometime njunea and witerbrash, or indigestion; flatulency and add eru&ations: bowels alternately costire and lax; headache; loss of memory, with 3. painful sensation cf having failed to do something which ought to have been done; debility ; low spirits; a thick, yellow appearance cf the skin and eyes ; a dry cough; fever; resdessness; the urine i scanty and high colored, and, if allowed to stand, deposits a sediment.
