STREET CAR MANNERS.
olosereauens upon On or Two COMIRWM
Types of 13oorishuegw
One day last week a car on one of the
Traction company's liner became pretty
wail orowded with passengers, mostly
ladies, before its trip was half made. In
the corner next the rear door sat a well
dressed lad of 1d, evidently the son of
parents in good circumstances, Within
a apace of two squares three old men,
none of whom were less than 70, one
nearly blind and all more or less crip-
pled, got in the car, Seats were fur,
tabbed for two of them by gentlemen
who stood, and a gray haired lady gave
the third her seat. The boy nevermoved
or gave the least indication that he knew
or 'cared whether older or helpless people
were standing while he was comfortably
seated.
If this boorish and ill mannered boy
was the only ono of his type it would be
hardly worth while to refer tothe mat-
ter; but, unfortunately, he is not. There
are hundreds and thousands like him.
In many cases, perhaps, these /ads are
more to be pitied than blamed. Any
one who witnessed the selfishness and
want of courtesy shown by the lad in
question recognized that defective home
training was at the root of his ill man,
nered selfishness. Re had not been
taught respeot for age or sympathy for
helplessness. Therefore, he failed to ex -
Iroise either. Would it not be worth
while for parents and teachers, while
"teaching the boys a good many other
things, to teach them manners, too? If
they can't be induced to do it from a
love of good manners on their own part
they should do it for very shame, for
every exhibition of selfish boorishness
like the one above mentioned is au ad-
vertisement to the world that all the
world reads of a lack of proper home
training, The boorish boy gives away
his boorish parents or teachers.
In the same car, before it became quite
so crowded, was another boor -the fel.
low who folds and unfolds his newspa-
per, digging his.elbows into the passen-
gers on each side of him while doing so.
This fellow is in almost every morning
and evening car. His elbows are worn
'sharp by constant practice as thousands
of his fellowriders can testify from pain-
ful experience. He is worse than the
boy who hasn't been taught good man-
ners and isn't old enough to have learned
himself, for the newspaper boor is,usu-
ally. a full grown and often a middle
aged man. There is another typo of the
newspaper boor found in most street.
ears. He is the fellow who gets in soon
after the car starts and becomes so ab-
sorbed in his newspaper that he can't see
other people standing, while he and his
newspaper occupy . the spade of two or
more seats. •
Really, it is hardly to be wondered at
that half grown boys sit in supreme and
unconscious selfishness while crippled
age stands, when they are furnished so
many examples of boorish selfishness by
those that should be their teachers and
exemplars in courtesy. Can't some kind
heartedand wealthy philanthropist be
induced to find an institution for the re-
formation of the various adult street car
boors, including, besides those just men•
tioned, the crossdegged boor, the fellow
whose cane or umbrella is stuck out to
trip other passengers, and all the other
examples of the genus boor? If these ill
mannered fellows were reformed, per-
haps the half grown lads might learn
street car courtesy by the process of.imi-
tation. Philadelphia Times.
In the Mouse of a Bich Japanese.
The wealthy Japanese make no display
either in the architecture of their houses
or in the display of ornaments, In the
way of furnishing, their pride lain the
delicacy of their mats and the richness
of the satin cushions. The chief room
in the house of a rich Japanese is
thus described: "The salon was about
25 feet long by 15 wide. At one end,
in the corner, was a small raised plat-
form: in a little niche and on it a fine
Irnari vase three feet high, holding
flowering branches of the cherry tree.
Behind, upon the wall, hung a very
valuable but very ugly kakamono of a
god. Twelve blue satin fotttons lay in
two rows upon the floor and three stand-
ing lamps stood in a line between. A.
folding screen was placed to protect us
from draught—and that was the entire
furniture of the millionaire'. drawing
room. The 'mats' upon the floor were
of the whitest and finest straw. The
screen was a gorgeous one, with a battle
scene painted upon a gold background." '
The Japanese keep their brie -a -brae in
fire proof buildings, to be taken out one
at a time and admired, and then re
placed by another. --Chicago Times.
