Well as news is very scarce this time I will write a little on politeness. It pays to be polite. It does not cost any thing to be polite to your friends and acquaintances, and incidently it goes a long way towards making life pleasant for your self. A civil answer makes more friends than a gruff one and a smile succeeds where a frown fails. Wehavenorighttoimpo8e on our little tempers and annoyan ces on our fellow beings. The fact that one person annoys us does not justify us in visiting it on the next person we meet. And yet that is what a large cumber of us do. One trival an noyance often up sets us for the whole day.

It may be done quite unenten tionally never theless the fact re mains that it is done, therefore we should always be careful be fore we speak. If we are inclined to he quick spoken, learn to be quick to band The hearing of the case came up in the morning, the divorce was granted, as the husband is now serving a term in the rwni tentiary, and that evening she was united in marriage to Mr. woanA. bmith.
