The custom prevalent with us ot announc Ins an engagement of marriage , says Har por's Bazar , Is comparatively unknown in the southern states. In that locality , there' ' fore , the newly < ogagcil couple are spared much of the self-consciousness from which : hey necessarily suffer when the fact of thch betrothal la made public. That "all the world loves a lover" ano that "there Is nothing half eo sweet In Ufa as love's young dream" are facts as old as love Itself. In splto of this or perhaps be cause of this- the newly engaged girl Is sub ject to a fire of curiosity aad criticism , "How does she behave ? " Is the universal query. If she looks happy , the comments are likely to be that "she seems blissfully , even foolishly , happy. One would think that she was the first girl who had c\ei been esgaged. How Joyful she Is at the fact that she Is to be married at last ! " etc , [ f the dear young creature takes the new state of affalra with oerlousness , she is saia to "look dreadfully solemn about It. She aa't bo very happy. Why does she marry .he man If she does not love him ? " A'nd the fortunate man Is criticised no ess severely ; his manner toward his llancee a commented upon ; even theoxprcujlon ol his countenance is made a subject of study. It Is a pity tt-at the ilrst flush of happi ness should be marred iby the knoule-dgo thai ono is ta object of scrutiny and comment , jut as such , 'd the caoe , the newly engages should carefully guard their behavior In public. It Is quite possible for a girl to bt , -ery happy without letting her bllsa overflow n Joyful splashes to the comparative stranger. Ono girl made herself an object of amusement by delightedly announcing her Betrothal to each acquaintance slio chanced ; o meet. Her rapturous "Do jou know thai [ am engaged ? " may have been very guile IBM , t'ut to the coolly critical observer II was also rather ridiculous. A few dear and Intimate friends may bo told the happy noun by the bride-elect , and they , not she , should announce the engagement to the world at large. Much might to said to the engaged man about the manner in which ho should re ceive congratulations on his new condition , Too often ho attempts to cover his natural cmbarratsment by a would-be facetious manner , which la In wretched taste. The fact that the dearest girl In the world has rommltted her happlne < ss to Ills keeping Is certainly not matter for Jest , Nor need he have the mlon of a resigned pa'lbtaror. Not long ago I ww so fortunate as to have the opportunity of congratulat'ng a joung man 03 his engagement to a sweet yoking friend * I gauged h'a character by his manner In receiving my conventional remark , delivered aj I thook hmda with him. He returned my hand clasp warmly , and a happy smllt made handsome features I had before thought p'.aln , "Thank you , " ho Ealtl , earnestly. "I ani to bo congratulated , through and through ! " Krom that moment I know my frleni hag chosen wisely. In sharp contrast to this agreeable cxperl enco vtoa the behavior of another man undei the same clrcumctancea. Hu attempted to laugh off his embatrasament. "Ah , thanks , awfully ! " with an Inane "Ha-lia ! I suppose that Is the proper tbtog to saji upon this occasion , Isn't It ? " After all , In this , as Inall , circumstance's In life , a elmple , unaffected demeanor Is the beet form , and the woman or man who rememUirs this cannot err 'a demeanor. A Comimrlxoii. New remedies put forth with exaggeratci claims are continually coming up ; eomo nourish awhllo as fashionable novelties , bu nearly all are forgotten before the end of the third year. On the other hand , Chamber Iain's cough rrmedy has continually grown In favor and popularity during the pa * twenty-five years. These who once use I are so much pleased with ttio result tba they nearly always Insist on having It when again In need of such a medicine. There I uothtag BO good for o bad cold.
