England Will Become Decadent When Nations Ceases to bo Rude, The Bing recently criticized the manners of Englishmen andsug- gested that it would be a 'good thing to include the inculcation of. courtesy in the: curricula of sehools, Iremarks the London Truth, Im- mediately everyone remade, the lis- " oovexy that ,Englishmen are not pat- terns of politeness; and they began to deprecate it, and say what • a pity it is, and what could. be done to alter it' And, as a• matter of fact, thereare, few things on which the Englishman prides himself more than his rudeness;. Courtesy has in all ages accom- panied downfall. The gentlemen and gentlewomen of to -day are pro- ' verbally at a great disadvantage whenever economic oonditions bring them into contact with the unedu- cated. Noblesse oblige has ruin- ed more persons than unwise speculation. France has a name for courtesy, so hes Italy so has Spain. Germany and England and America each has a special brand of bad manners. Compare the status of these two groups of countries. - Napoleon bad very bad manners, So had the great Goths. Europe had reached a pitch of the highest civilization, and then the barbarian hordes' swept over it and washed away all the traditional , weaknesses. Bismarck was so renowned for bad manners that when he jostled the Papal Nuncio,. and then merely said, "I'm Bis - march 1" the Nuncio replied : "If that is not an apology, at least it is a perfect explanation." • REASONS FOR BAD MANNERS. There are two reasons for having bad manners. These are weak- ness and strength. Weakness we put in prison, and strength we call the eccentricity of genius; Sp. we have a jungle and a, . zoo, with the self same beasts in both; but our relations, to the two are singu- larly different. Pa,'is'`was once a jungle, and St. Heli,na .a zoo; but in.betweeii crane Elba, which taught us ' -gain the nchi . of prevent - F : SHE HAD USED DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS FIRST., 3Irs, Mace suffered for over two years, thea two boxes. of Dodd's. Kiduey Pills nuuie.a.new woman of her. Previa, Gaspe. Co., Que., Tan. 8 (Special).—That she might have escaped two years and seven months of suffering had she tried Dodd's Kidney Pills in the first place is the firm conviction of Mrs. 'Doha McRae, an , old and respected re- sident of this place. And this is the reason she gives for believing •so: "For two years and seven months I was a sufferer from Kidney Disease brought on : by a strain and a cold: My eyes were puffed and swollen, my muscles cramped and I suffered from neuralgia and Rheumatism. My back ached and I had pains in my joints. "For two years I was under the doctor's .care, but he never seemed to do me any lasting -good. Two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills made a new woman of me."

Servants work themselves to the bone, for a master or mistress who treats them like the dirt on the muddy road, "She's a• real tidy," they say, "she's that 'igh in 'er ways. Never a kind word." The English abroad is le milor anglais. People do not love him, but they serve him; and he knows it. It is not only a mat- ter of money; it is largely his sup- reme and unsullied insolence which takes him everywhere. No other nation can do all over the world, to the remotest spots, even to places to which you cannot get a ticket at Cook's, without knowing a word of any language but his own, and come back without turn- ing a hair. This the, Englishman does systematically an every week. He will condescend to learn a few native oaths in each country, but that is all. It springs from his sense, of power, and he would consider it a sign of weakness to abate one jot the rigor of his wintry behavior. He is used to 'governing savages and Orientals, and he has • found that courtesy spells weakness to them, He is, iced to being curt verbally with his servants, how- ever carefully he looks after their .welfare and he knows that his dignity would be gone if he spoke to them in soft accents of kindness. Bad manners of this national kind are the sign -manual of power, and have something fibrous in them, which does not for a moment axe. Buse them, but which enables the observer to understand them to a ertain extent. MANNERS vs. COURTESY. Clergymen are, perhaps, as a lass the politest men in England. hey have to be, forthey preach. he creedof all the gentler virtues. o we associate them with teacups nd carpet slippers; and I have card an Englishman tell a curate, way of a supreme compliment, at in talking to him it was quite try toforget he was a clergyman all.

Resignation he polite, but until a, fresh e of f,4uths sweep England 'off remit to which she has climbed manners will remain bad. VERY SIMILAR.

Pills for Nervous Troubles.—The stomach is the centre _ of the nerv- ous system, and when the stomach suspends healthy action the result is manifest in disturbances of the nerves. If allowed .to persist, nerv- ous ervi ous debility, a :dangerous ailment, may-. ensue.
