PECK. Qiiugo TWe can read- , J ily see the consequence of , manners. To begin with, a woman should strive to become a lady. Polite- nets is good sense. The want of good manners may be ineradicable. It is j a shame for women to be reprimanded on their manners, but at times it seems necessary. Do you know to be a lady ia more than to be a queen of i the highest rani or power ? A lady when in her right is certainly worthy of 'all respect; to a lady king and peasant bow alike. Do not be compelled ; to not have impulses that need to be repressed or checked. 1 Take great care when visiting public parks. See that your etiquette is ap to the standard. Don't get careless in regard to! etiquette. Don't spoon in the public parks ; it ia not becoming to a lady. Don't be vulgar. Don't flirt with everything that comes along. It doesn't pay. In fac, a safe rule would be never to flirt Why make your life unhappy? Why are there so many suicides every day ? Why so many divorces ? Is it possible to blame the want of etiquette? Eead the "don'ts" again; they answer the questions, if not in al at least in the majority of cases. ' j Surely life is to be enjoyed. To make life happy only requires that we conform strictly to the usages and regulations of etiquette. . Be moderate moder-ate in dress; never try to appear more than you really are; be mild and ' never try to win others by any other arms than plainness, dignity and gentleness. Hie right-thinking man of today will then show women more ! respect arid enlarge their opinion of their worthiness to be called a lady. |
