ESMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.
Politeness and attention are the pro-
pensities Of many clerks, book-keepers,
alespeople, conductors, etc., and it is
of a necess1ty a quality dependent upon
which the success of the mission in life
«lithe business man or woman hangs.
Ill-is. often a great trial to appear
. pleasant and affable when the mind is
uneasy and the heart sorely troubled,
but the quality. of a sweet temper 'can
heacquired; yes, I maintain can be ac-
quit-ed and becOme so habitual with
the individual that its regularity will
Wile equalled' 1n constancy ,by that
oithahungering appetite which we
alleatisfiyat our breakfast, dinner and
and when the even temper is ac.
quired, natural politeness, which is
the, hallmark of good bleeding, will
follow... The actions peI taining to the
Stan-ll things of life are the occasions
which perforce show the nicety of the
mind
Hprop‘o of politeness and considerav
tibn I must relate a few Observances
made- on a visit to the City of Elms
recently, which, to say. the least, were
amusing... I. was riding along on a
trolls—y car which runs over into West
Haven from New Haven, -'a most de-
ihghtful ride,__'.: The conductors on these
cars are very attentive to the passen-
gets. ' The cars run about every twenty
unscented of course there being so
féw they-are watched for vigilently.
An incident worthy of notice and yet
‘ laughable when taking into considera-
tion the rush and hustle of to-day and
the up—to-date conveniences for the
public, was witnessed at the West
Haven post office. A lady got off the
w and went into the office, bought
some stamps, placed them on her let- ‘
11ers, posted them, asked for letters,
and being Satisfied, came out and again
boarded the car, which was awaiting
her pleasure. ,
At another time a man with a baby
in his arms and a woman of lather
Sarge p1 oportions were seen to beckon
the car from two blocks away and were
endeavor' mg to run which was at most
ahurl'led walk; probably five mlnutes
elapsed before they reached the car,
but it waited. and the conductor very
good-humoredly helped them on and
we started 0 1 agai1.
The people in that section did not
lseem to think anything Of it and as a
mnsequeme the imposition has become
infectious-x To the New Yorker, who
' isscarcely givena chance to board a
win his city. before it starts this is
Weed amazing. How they ever
manage to keep their time is more th. 11
, jmortll knows.
But with all the advantages of this ,
ailiging line it has its drawbacks as
many can tell.

A large hood to throw over one’s

or theatre, is a necessity, even in the
summer. When in a. closed carrlaio

head uncovered, and as ‘thcse hoods
are made large and comfortable there
is no danger of the hair being diSaI':
tensed.
