Quartetto Write me an epic the warrior said Victory valor and glory wed Prithee a ballad exclaimed the might Prowess adventure and faith unite An ode to freedom the patriot cried Liberty won and wrong defied Write me a check the poet cried And the silence all wool was a mil yard wide The Girl at Home and Abroad At this season every year hundreds of girls leave schools and colleges and enter the social world The college graduate is usually old enough and has received mental men-tal training that will prevent her doing such foolish and thoughtless things as girls younger and with less serious training are apt to do A girl of twentytwo who snakes her entrance into the social world and most college graduates are usually that old must be innately vulgar if she offends the senso of propriety But the graduates of the schools especially tho fashionable schools arc usually younger aad unless they have grown up under wise and educated edu-cated mothers they frequently mistake amazement for interest amusement for admiration In a late number of the North Americar Review is an article that every American girl should red the article entitled American Girls in Europe is filled with hints on the mistakes the American girls make in the manners they adopt t 4 and these mistakes the writer attributes largely to the bad models chosen She speaks warmly of two American girls who Lad made this mistake She says 1 have never seen two such aristocratic looking creatures as the daughters of a bard working couple who had Struck oil Eomewherc in the Middle States who came over teeming with money and ignorance to admonish Nice and set expectant and most impecunious noble by the ear and a prouder better behaved more badly speak inc pair of beauties never helped the Eng lish novelist or the French playwright to a type I was much touched to hear the asking a lady near her what she f do to make her girls more like the a > girls Give them a year of school In England and a year of school n France was tho sensible reply For the shrewd American mother saw her daughters were lauchcd at She saw that they neither walked sat down rose up ate their dinner talked to gentlemen nor put on their hats like the shy proper repressed girls that had been educated in convents She got to know that their own country women disowned dis-owned them She also saw that they were inclined to copy bad models not good ones which is the besetting sin of the variety of American girls The writer of the article Mrs John Sherwood Sher-wood heard a comment on the attentions of tho Prince of Wales to a beautiful American Ameri-can girl in which the Americans were accused ac-cused of doing American things Anxious Anxi-ous to Know what these American things were site asked a gentleman who was a prominent literary man and who entertained enter-tained Americans most hospitably what was meant by the acpusation American things Well I will tel you he said In the first place American pronunciation is even amongst your cultivated people most unmusical and unpleasant tous I dare say ours is to you Then if you will forgive me we observe in your handsome young women au entire absence of that delicate reserve that fragrance of propriety which J Is our idea of good breeding I do not say that there arc no cnarming exceptions And then we do not like your air of success suc-cess your air of appropriating every thing She also tells us of the comment of a foreign husband of a American girl who stated that his first impression of the lady who was afterwards his wife was that she was the hardestlooking woman he had ever Been and in reply to the question When did you alter your opinion replied When I got to know her I saw that the hardness was all affected The young girls had copied bad morals Much that Mrs Sherwood has said applied ap-plied to the girl at homo as well as abroad She speaks Jf what she terms the odd varieties var-ieties of American girls the girls who love their parents but do not reverence them And this is tho sort of girl who usually peaks of her father and mother aspapper end mammer parents who have accumulated accum-ulated money or made it and spend it entirely en-tirely for their children These are the girls who having a little wider social trainIng train-Ing than their parents a little more educational educa-tional advantages but frequently lacking their parents common sense think that they have nothing to learn and shut the door to their possibilities that their opportunities oppor-tunities constantly give them Mrs Sherwood puts every American girl in her debt by these wise words In the matter Of dress an American girl rises to the situation at once She is very rarely if ever badly dressed Given such an amount oT prettiness as she has such quickness of eye and so long a purse Paris dresses her a ravir and she wears her clothes like a queen or as queens but seldom sel-dom do It is astonishing when one sees such taste in one direction that one can see such limitations of taste in the matter on manners but it is quite evident that some young American girls think if the outside blf the cup and platter is clean it is no matter mat-ter about the inside They neglect their k J speech which is a matter of vital import I wee For wherever we live whether in I I Yorkshire or Rome Peoria or Paris there arc such things as a cultivated and agreeable agree-able voice a correct pronunciation and a pretty ccccnt No one is so dependent upon this charm as a woman It has made many a plain woman attractivethis gift of speech And the Venus of Milo would become a fright if she could open that glor i ions mouth of hers and if from it should ii issue an uncultivated voice saying hort for heart mormor for mamma or defiling l defil-ing her classic features for the momentshe should give an unusual cackle and launch into slang It will not help the American girl to say she dont care She does care TheD Vj a native born American aristocracy aristoc-racy which all should aspire to belong The original and beautiful American won II have a vivacity and wit which the old civilization have lost She should ne lose her originality But she should st to be low voiced sweetvoiced calm ql and thoroughbred We ignorant of ourselves I n often our own charms which the wise powers Deny us for our good This would be a pretty posy for many an American girls ring She regrets nothing of that somewhat promiscuous emblazonment emblazon-ment which accompanies celebrity She does not always remember that she must keep her presence new and fresh like robes pontifical As was said in the beginning of this article hundreds of girls will enter for the first time that test of manners and characters charac-ters the social world this summer If you carry to it vulgarity false standards affections affec-tions it will soon discover them and you will be put on your levels The girl full of health and vitality will find legitimate exercise ex-ercise in tennis archery and the many forms of outdoor life on which society has set the mark of approval It is not necessary neces-sary in order to find exercise to choose any form that will arouse disagreeable comment com-ment or offend against good taste Many of us remember the young girl who a few I summers ago against the wishes of her chaperon went canoeing with a gentleman in the evening and neither of them ever returned re-turned The canoe was overturned in some way and both of them were drowned It was against the sentiment of the place in which the girl was staying to go canoeing canoe-ing in the evening Her bravado cost her her life and that of her escort A wise man who knows the ways of the world has said Every sensible man pays due regards re-gards to the public opinion of the community commu-nity in which he lives Every wise girl does likewise Girls who love admiration frequently do things which are not in good taste and thereby arouse comment that they would be greatly mortified to hear Not long since a beautiful girl dressed in a suit of navyblue and white trimmed with guilt braid in military design and with a remarkable hat drove for several afternoons after-noons in a park phaeton drawn by a span of fine horses and attended by a groom whose livery matched the spokes of the wheels through a thoroughfare in a large city to the terminus of a bridge at an hour when it was crowded and there waited in the most public manner for a friend The act was so conspicuous that a simple hearted gentleman commenting on it said Doubtless she is a lady but it does not become be-come a lady to do anything so conspicuous conspicu-ous The young lady who did this has every social advantage but she is either weak or vulgar It is this regarded for public sentiment independence of manners and standards stand-ards that justifies criticism The wise girl lives a free life that does not violate the laws or standards that have been found best suited for the social intercourse of men and women Girls of an innate refinement refine-ment or who study to become refined are careful to avoid that which classes them with that which is vulgar loud or the ignorant ignor-ant world whose standards are the result of their own or their parents ignorance LOST HIS VOICE I Saved by Ills FriendGeorge Dovey Relates I How Ho Had Narrow Escape and
