nOW one oughtJo behave in po

ingtopie , and even if we know all
about it it iH worth while to hear
what the latest mentor has to say
on this Sl'OI'e.wl'he Etiquette of
Politeness and the Usages of Modern .
'I'll Society in all the Circumstances .
'es of I.Jife" is the ponderous title
of a bulky volume issued ! : in Paris
on this entertaining subject.
As an index to the ] behavior of
French women and French men it ,
is significant to note that young
wives are counseled to banish
from their dwelling the "danger-
OUB visitor , " giving him to understand .
stand that "J'ou can never be
anything more to him than a
stranger " Young men who think
they look well on horseback
Bhould meditate this sage advice :
"If you : arc not an experienced
equestrian ( ] , do not accompany the
Indies to houn s. "
Men who have attained a cer-
lain age are told that they may
"pmbrace little girls on thc forehead -
head before theircoufirllla Up
till t that period it is a paternal caress -
I'ess , but after that it is wise to ab- -
tain. ; " Presumably after coulir-
Illation the little girls begin to develop -
velop n a preference for other
than paternal eareSSl'S. One
would have thought that in a eoun-
tey t where men were so proverbial 1-
ly 1 gallant it would not have been !
J1l'cessllrS' to warn them that it is
not : "correct to stand with their
back to the fire , leaning on the
aluntelpiece"
Bu the counsel is there , and jj-
is gravely added : "By so doing
you ; deprive others of the comfort- -
ing heat which you monopolize. "
"rrhe husband , " we learn , "iu
speaking of his wife says : ' My
wife , ' but he must not say to her :
'Is it not so , mv wife' ? ' Neither
must the wife address her husband -
, bund in this fashion. "
WILL OF A PATRIOTIC -MAN
Hoboken , N. J. , Resident Leaves
Large Share of Cash to Pay on
the National Debt.
No stranger 01' more interesting -
ing will has ever been made than
that by which Joseph H. Lewis
of Hoboken , N. J. , left the larger
share of his money to the United
States to be used toward the pay- -
mcnt of the national t debt. He
was 87 years old and lived alone
with an old housekeeper. He was
born of English parents on the
island of Jamaica but came to
this country when only a small
boy. He enlisted in the war of
1812 and forever after was the
stanchest of pH tl'iots. BJ' trade he I
was an engraver and had a little
shop near Trinity church , where
many of the fashionable wedding
cards were engraved , as were flIp
door plates of the rich. In that
day the door plate was a most
important adjunct to the front of
n house , and Lewis did a thriving
trade in engraving them.
Though Ill' retired from business -
ness at an early date , his compe-
tence was so invested during the
! . remainder of the rears of his long
.
- A
life that at his death his estate I
WitS valued at over $1,000,000.
Ill' had many plans for the final
( distribution of his fortune , but
none of them pleased him us did
lime idea of leaving it to his conn-
h' } ' . TIe often told his friends that
be ) had made his money in : this I
country and all that he was he
owed to the United States For
that reason he wished to repay ;
his indebtedness as best he could.
With thelcxception of a few small
bequests the entire fortune of
this patriotic man was turned
over to the United States gover.o

But the chiefest terror of the
Pinkerton detective agency to ,
evildoers lies in this : they never '
stop ; they never give up a
case in which a member of the
American Bankers' association is
involved , writes Charles Francis
Bourke in Leslie's Magazine.
So thoroughly is this recognized
that the little sign banging in
many banking offices and reading
"Member American Bankers'
association -
sociation , " serves as the best pos.
sible insurance against the exploits '
ploits of safe-blowers , sneak , / .
thieves and forgers. An amus- Ii
ing instance of the influence of
this reputation is found in a case I
reported from 'Visconsin. Sneak I
thieves entered a banking house
in an interior city and succeeded (
in getting away with negotiable '
bonds valued at $50,000. At the ' ' J
time the robbery was committed , (
the thieves did not notice the sign .
of the American Dankers' associa-
tion which was hanging in an inconspicuous -
conspicuous position. When the
affair became public , the fact that ,
the bank which had been robbed llt
belonged to the association waR '
also Htated. Next day the bank
in question received by express
from Milwaukee a package containing -
taining the stolen bonds intact.
with it was a note : "Please put
your sign where people can see it
and save trouble , " it read.
