_ Of Courtesy and Gentlehood.
| Courtesy is that outward demeanor by which we show our regard for the feelings of others. Gentlehood 1s the manner of life and thought from which courtesy matur- ,ally springs.
| A broad distinction is to be drawn be- tween gentlehood and its caricature, gen- tility. Gentility is a cheap and tawdry imitation ; gentlehoood is the real, thing. The one is a veneer ; the other is the. game all through. As gentlehood is te gentility, so is courtesy to that fitful and labored ‘politeness which is put on as if it were a \dress-cuat, only to be worn on speeial oc- ,casions.
| Do not fancy, my dear lad, that courtesy is a merely trivial and ornamental attribute fit only for ladies’ bowers.
The facuity of sympathy is at the root of courtesy. The unsympathetic man is never truly courteous, because he is by the very ‘law of his nature careless of the feelings of others.
For the finest example of true and manly courtesy that the world has ever seen you must turn to your New Testament. In the words (surely not irreverent) of an old writer, Jesus Christ was ‘‘the first true gentleman that ever breathed.” Courtesy is but one of the many developments of that Golden Rule which is the germinal law of practical Christianity.
There is nothing unmanly in courtesy, as some rough-mannered persons seem to think. The strongest and bravest men are generally the mildest and gentlest. In- deed, courtesy is often a sign of strength, because it implies and involves a certain self repression. The weak and pompous man fears to be courteous, lest he should comprise his own small vanity ; but he who is really strong is far above any such dread. In truth, there is no more effectual shield against pert and obstructive freedom than an easy, unvarying politeness.
Especially would | urge my boy to be always courteous to his inferiors. When Sir William Johnson returned the salute of a negro who had bowed to him, he was _re- minded that he had done what was very unfashionable. ‘‘ Perhaps so,” said ke, ** but I would not be outdone in good man- ners by a negro.” Lord Chesterfield, the pattern of politeness, spoke in his will of his servants as ‘‘his unfortunate friends, equal by birth, and only inferior by for- tune.” We are all of us polite enough to great folks—very often a good deal too

Cost of Getting the News. Mr. Eugene M. Camp, who has collected the statistics for America on this point,

This is divided amoung 190 of
These two sums, with the special outlay for tele-
place t. 2 total to all the papers of $1,820,- 000 for this department. In addition to this there are to be reckoned the special services of special correspondents in adja- cent towns and important centres, whose salaries aggregate $1,000,000 besides. This makes the total cost of all the service about
2,880,000 per annum. In the larger cities of the Union it costs all the way from $400 to $2,200 a week for the working up of local districts. Mr. Camp reckons this yearly expense at about $15,000,000. This is a correct analysis of the expense in col- lecting the news and the proportion in which one branch of the service is related to the other. There are three lines on which this work proceeds—the gathering of nev's by the local reporter, the use of the tele- graph and the special correspondent. Ea:h methoci is closely related to the other. Tue statement shows that there has been a great development of journalism in the matter of news. Every effort is made to get the news and one combination only paves the way for another in order to keep the lead in this department of a newspaper. The gveater the combination, the greater the re- sult, and the paper that has the nows is the one that the public is most willing to pay for. —Boston Herald.
Commenting upon the brilliant success achieved in life by the late Sir John Rose, who began as a school-teacher, the Toronto Mail adds: Sir John Macdonald had no fortune to help him onward, and Mr. Mackenzie, as everybody knows, began as a stonemason. The present minister of justice was formerly a printer, and the minister of customs graduated at the same trade. Sir Leonard Tilley commenced as druggist’s clerk, while Sir Charles Tupper, Bart., is the son of a Baptist missionary, who errtain!y had no cash to confer upon aim. Mr. Blake is the son of a judge ; his father rose from the farm, and a poor one ‘tis said to have been, to the bench of which he was an ornament. The late Judge ©’Connor was also the son of @ farmer of little if any means.

A “Favorite” Fence.
A correspondent in the Cowntry Gentle- man says his favorite fence isa combina- tion of post, boards and wire. This is the way he describes it :—~
My favorite fence is oné mae of three boards and two barbed wires. It is possi- ble to make a pig-proof fence with wire alone, bvé this requires so much wire that boards below are the most economical. 1 set the posts 30 feet Sinvhes apart. Mid- way between these posts short onea, high enough for the boards to be nailed to, are set. These are that have rotted off, but the tops of which are sound ; op split em eee ey aie node — i to get cuts eno t aang out These short posts are to be
long ones, “as they Wepow es apart. Midway between these we set one of the weakest of our short posts, or even a short stake. Another is easily driven in at its side when needed. Just after the frost has come out of the ground in the spring, a stout stake can be driven down thirty inches mto the ground, using a heavy sledge. This gives a support every seven feet eight inches for our boards; and for the wire every thirty feet eight inches— close enough together when barbed wire is used.
This is the best and cheapest fence for our Island fields. It makes the snow lie and saves bushing for that purpose.

Kisses on Interest. A father, talking to his careless daughter, said: ‘*{ want to speak to you of your mother. It may be that you have noticed a careworn look upon her face lately. Of course it has not been brought there by any action of yours, still it is your duty to chase itaway. Il want you to get up to- morrow morning and get breakfast, and when your mother comes and begins to ex- sa her surprise, go right up to her and iss her on the mouth. You can’t imagine how it will brighten her dear face. Besides, you owe her 4 kiss or two. Away back, when you were a little girl, she kissed you when no one else was tempted by your fever-tainted breath and swollen face. You were not as attractive then as you are now. And threugh those years of childish sun- shine and shadows she was always ready to cure, by the magic of a mother’s kiss, the little, dirty, chubby hands whenever the were injured in those first skirmishes with the rough old world. And then the midnight kiss with which she routed so many bad dreams, as she leaned over your restless pillow, have all been on interest these long, long years. Of course she is not so pretty and kissable as you are ; but if you had done your share of work during the last ten years the contrast would wot be so marked. Her face has more wrinkles than yours, far more; and yet if you were sick that face would appear more beautiful than an angel’s as it hovered over you, watching every opportunity to minister to your comfort, and every one of those wrinkles would seem to be bright wavelets of sunshine chasing each other over the dear face. She will leave you one of these Gays. These burdens, if not lifted from her shoulders, wil) break her down. Those rough, hard hands, thac have done so many necessary things for you, will be crossed upon her lifeless breast. Those neglected lips that gave you your first baby kiss will be forever closed, and those ssd, tired eyes will have opened in eternity, and then you will appreciate your mother, but it will be too late.” — <i
A Loving Family.
‘* Yes,” said the principal of the young ladies’ seminary to the proud parent, ** you ought to be very happy, my dear sir, to be the father of so large a family, all the mem- bers of which appear to be so devoted to one another.”
‘* Large family ! Devoted |” gas the old gentleman in amazement. ‘What on earth do you mean, ma’am ¢”
‘* Why, yes, indeed,” said the principal beaming through her glasses; ** no less than 11 of Gussie’s brothers have been Aere this winter to take her out sleigh riding, and she tells meshe expects the tall one with the blue eyes again to-morrow.”
“Think not you are the only one who has to endure, and who dreads the hard- ships of life. Ease snd comfort are the natural desires of the human beart, and there are thorns, real or imaginary, in everyoue’s pathway. Bui sitting down and brooding will never bring power to over- come them. Rather be up and doing, thankful for the blessings yet remaining.”
‘< Whatever of an undesirable disposition a man has to-day, without money, he will have to-morrow, bowever rich; to an ex gerated extent, unless the heart be changed. The miser will be more miserly; the drunk- ard more drunken; the debauchee more de- bauched; the fretful still more complaining; hence the striking wisdom of the Scripture injunction that all our sanbitions sh be- gin with this: ‘Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.’ ”

Literature in the United States would seem to be a good healthy calling when Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes celebrated his seventy-ninth birthday last week, and two other literary lions have attained honorable ave. One of them, James Russell Lowell, is. but seventy; but the other, JohaG.
