It is so difficult to {pake young people see cause and effect, or to realize that I leration and general courtesy are not hypocrisy and humbug. While, although we know that "to be all things to all men" is the golden rule for social success, we feel that prudent cal culation is noi a lovely attribute for a young per son. It Is really a puzzle. We desire above all things^ to have our children succeed in life, and we tnow with the wisdom begotten of sad experience what will Insure that success, but we naturally hesitate to lead them to the tree of knowledge and bid them pluck from Its branches the fruit that will give them the perception of good and -vil. So. with a sophistry which, with their keen younp intelligence, they are very apt to detect, we give them moral axioms instead of the plain worldly advice which might be more efficacious. SOME WAYS OF THE WORLD THE "NAGGING" PRACTICE BEFORE GCESTS-PEOPLE Wll<> AHE ASHAMED OF THEIR RELATIVES. "Visiting about, as I do every summer." re marked a popular woman. "I cunnot help being tru -k by certain faults of manner, and, I mlgnt almost say. breeding, which are common among the nicest people, who would be the first to detect and criticise such solecisms in others. One nar.it is talking with each other to make conversation at the table, instead of to the guest. This is v.cry common. although one would not think it possible, and the people who do it would be greatly aston ished if they thought I referred to them. It is generally done with the idea of amusing the vis itor, no doubt, but it is always annoymg. Another habit, and this Is much worse, is lault.indhe on the part of the mistress or master of the house. People should make it a rule never to blame a child or a servant, or criticise each other's actions before a guest. A third person i always made uncomfortable by it. and feels almost as If hehlm eelf were included in the reprimand. But what i called 'nagging' between husband ana wife is the worst of aJL I know a couple who are otherwise perfectly charming, and who are really extreme > Jond of each other, but who are BO continually squabbling ana wrangling that 1 have «rtoPP«-dgo lrTg there for no other reason. 1 dimply cannot stand, it— it is too depressing!" RELATIVES WHO ARE NOT I( 'ARDS.' "Of course it Is not 'common' not to have a car riage, any more than It Is to have' a carriage, but it is 'common' to talk as if you had a. carriage, or about your carriage if you have one." This speech was delivered by a young expounder of social ethics, and the thought strikes at the root of the matter very cleverly. Any pretence is vujgar, and ar.y csUntatlon, or, gs the childreu say, "puttlrrg on airs." Is even worse. The condi tions of ilfe, however, have nothing? to do with it— a. rich 'woman or a poor woman may be equally .'Ac gentlewoman. In this country especially the young people of a family often go with a much smarter set (so called) than their parents and rela tives, and if. in consequence, they show any false pride about It they betray exceedingly bad form. "Po you notice how the Hobtasoo girls never mention eny of their family who are not 'cards'?" rerrarV. an astute woman of their acquaintance " 'Jim' Is a 'card' l>ecaupe lie is very popular -with srr.art women. Their aunt. Mrs. S— — . is a 'card' because in some way she has managed to pet Into society. But their elder married pistor they never mention, nor a brother who goes with a different lot of people. And as for their father and mother, plain, worthy souls, one would hardly know that they existed. 1 took a great fancy to these girls when I first met them; they were so pretty and ciev. r. but the trouble is that they are not -really gentlewomen." People who are ashamed of their relatives or of the social position of their part-nts do not realize that they tiu-msalves betray the cloven foot; that Is, they show that they are veneer, ho to speak, and not good, f^olid rosewood or muhogany. • ' • "What kind of a man is Mr. XX — — V ¦ Some one answered, speaking of B. new star in S the social horizon: "Oh, he is the sort that preserves the 6pade of his ancestors, but changes its character, and calis it a presentation trowel. You know the kind: He Is too pgotistlcal and full of himself really to feel ashamed of any- of his belongings, so he Invests them with the glamour of his own greatness, and actually oomes to believe that they are what he would wish them to be." But. even while laughing at.his. airs of grandeur, we cannot help having a kindly liking for a man who not only gave his old father and mother when alive, an honored place in his grand establish ment, but after their death took their old -portraits, which in his boyhood had been painted by an itinerant artist for his board. Without disturbing the faces, he had them dressed up by a competent artist in the most fashionable attire of the day with Jewels galore; and then put them In gorgeous irames and hung them on his walls for his grand children and great-grandchildren to remember as their ancestors. ON MAKING FRIENDS. It is a great mistake to make enemies, or even to excite a feeling of dislike on the part of any ac quaintances unnecessarily, for a good word from eny one Is always of service to a young man or young •woman. On the other hand, a slighting remark invariably creates a certain unfavorable opinion, whether it Is true or untruq, or whether the hearer really bejleves it or not. Slander al ways sticks. And it often takes years to live down the Impression creßted tn pome person's mind by a spiteful criticism. It is so easy to in aert a -wedge! "So-and-so is very nice— but" and then comes the disparagement, which Is all the more deadly because of the seeming kindli ness of the speaker. "But what is one to do?" queries a high spirited young creaturr with pronounced likes and dls- U^i-" 1 ! Eh , ould despise myself ¦: J truckled to People sim;. yto -set5 et thGlr Bood word.

"BACK NUMBERS" IN BOCIETT. "I never see you anywhere nowadays," pome- one remarked to an attractive young woman recently. "Do you never go anywhere now? You used to be the gayest of the gay. Why haw you given It all up?" "Because 1 am neither fish, fowl nor good red herring," she laughed. "I have no place In so ciety. I ought to be married and have my own establishment, and I have not. You see, It Is this way with gir:s whose people do not entertain much: The lirst year they come out they are feted and made much of, and have a beautiful time; the next year or two their glory pales a little, but they still feel it is their prerogative to go about and have a good time.

LEARNING TO DE HOUSEWIVES AT L.ITTLK MAY COTTAGE OF TITK SHELTERING ARMS. At this season, when colleges and Rnlahing schools are turning out hosts of fair girl graduates, learne-j In literature and science, an Institution of another sort in the city is worthy of note by way of <-o:i trr.st, where girls are trained in a really unique manner to become most efficient housewives. This is the Little May Cottage of the Sheltering Arms, at One-hundn?d-and-rwenty-ninth-st. and Atns;.-r dnm-ave. The cottage was founded some years ago in memory Of little May Carey, who «11*-<1 when she was ten years old, but her name is now cher ished In many a nottaeb 'H The Sheltering Arms receives homeless children whom no other institution will admit, such as those whose homes are broken up by intemperance or desertion of parents, or those for whom friends and relatives can pay a part of their board. Whr-n the endowment fund of $50,000 for the cottage was given by Mrs. John Carey, Jr., who was the daugh ter of William B. Astor, It was resolved to estab lish a home of more permanent character than was permitted in other parts of the institution, where a thorough course In domestic training could be com pleted by the puptK Accordingly this cottage has become a household in Itself. Its work Is done en tirely without servants by the twenty girls who live there and have complete management of its varied details, although under the direction of a house mother. Mme. Ad*le Branchu. Children aa young as six years are admitted, and they may rf'mnln until they are seventeen. As the younger children have their time- more or less interrupted by the ordinary school studies, no one can bo graduated until she has spent two years In the house as "home Klrl." which is generally after a girl b.'is treen graduated from day school, when siie Is fifteen. There are at present four "home girls" \ n the cottage, and it I* they who have charge, alternating week by week, of the kitchen, laundry and dining room.

THEY AT,ONE ARE WORTH A VISIT TO THK . MUSEUM— EXQUISITE WORKMANSHIP. A June Saturday nt the Art Museum shows an assemblage of visitors quite different from thoso who gather on the Saturdays In winter and spring. Evidently many of the young women set frer- i,y the clonlnK of the lafgc ShOP* avail themselves of ¦ the opportunity to visit the museum. They seem especially Interested In the exhibits of distinctly feminine fripperies, the fan collection coming in for ¦ large shure of attention. ThJa collection was given to the museum by Miss Sarah Lazarus, and It- displayed in two larse cases of four wings each that have gla*!" on both sides, thus enabling one to see all parta of the, dainty ar ticles. The greater number are French of the Ix)ul» XIV. XV and XVI periods, but these are supplemented by Italian, Knifllsh and Dtttch Of the early eighteenth century, with a Pewlan antique, a Russian and several Chinese, ancient and mod ern. They are curiously characteristic In most cases, and Inl'nltely more beautiful lhan the styles that succeeded them, although some of Ihe sub jects selected as decoration strike one as amus ingly Inappropriate. The flaying of Marsyaa, for Instance, sterns hardly desirable as an objt-ct of contemplation, yet it Is the theme cho.ven to adorn one of the Italian fans. In general, however, the decorative Ideas are BBBsefeaitly frivolous for th«lr purpose. One might safely Bay that everything tha 1 . is- not mythological is rustic, as the gods arid the shepherds furnish a larKe proportion of the subjects, leading to th* Inference th*t In those earlier centurley, ns now, there was a strong tacdancy to aarsfwi from the actual Into the fanciful. Om> of the Louis XIV fans has the marriage of the KlnK to Marie Thciesc as de oration, a fairly suceersful attempt at portraiture being made.

The Louia X\' fans snow little change in general di-sign. except that sods and goddaaaea are evident ly a little out of fashion and sylvan scenes pre dominate!, with an occasional leanlnj? toward semi historical and Scriptural themes. The Louis XVI period has some bewitching ex amples, one of which Is a diminutive affair, all or 1 ivory carved Into lacelike designs of wonderful I delicacy. This belonged to BOOT Marie Antoinette.

An Italian fan of the sixteenth century is deco rated with a picture of "The Judgment of Paris."

I BEWILDERED PHOEBE. A BTORT OF NEST BUILDING AS Tt>l.l> BY .I(»UN urßßoraiis. •l li.i.i ¦ good Illustration last summer *of how limited the mother wit of a Phoebe bird is wh.-n now rondlltona anil surroundings confront her." says J..h:i Hurroushs. In "Ilird Lore." "A pair of those bltils had annually Inillt their nest In a liltle niche In a li-.Ut- of rocks mw my •Slal'side*," or rither Hc\>Tal years ago they buiti a nest there, and as there was no room for a — cowd nest, each subse quent BBftag they hail repaired and refurnished the old one anil reared their brood in it. It Was in a lonely place, at the mouth of a deep recess In th« ledge, and 1 thought quite secure from all creeping and climbing enemies of the birds. A thick growth <>f ¦ wall trvrs formed a screa* hi Its front, m hide It from the eye of winged marauders, and no snake or squirrel could reach It from the rock Itself. "When the nest contained three or four eggs I allowed a young friend of mine to take one for his collection. This intrusion seemed ti. invite disaster, for In kH than a |Wl the eggs -were all gone and lha bird* had deserted the place. A new atom house had been built uponijtha rocki above me. with a pataaa till around It, ¦overed by a continuation of the main roof down the required distance. After niurh Inspecting of this aaaaaa the birds concluded to InitUl a BCBI upon the plate beside un» of the rafters. Now tills plate was about thirty fevt long and then- were i»-:i rafteis notched upon it. and h»-nce. ten places exa t;>- alike. The bird aaweiei. the fourth raftai from tie end nearest the woods, and t.ej-.in h-r nest upon the plate beside It. She I was In a great hurry and v.orked "on jump," so to speak. She got her mortar in the ditch near my I cabin. One morning 1 watched her for some time. She nvtde B trip ev-ry minute carrying her load up a st**ep grade nbout one hundred yards. The malo looked on nnd cneered her. but did not help.

The next time she struck the nearly finished nest ami put down har load without hesitating. I watched h»r for half an hour and soon saw how It was with her— why she scattered, so. I concluded she was misled by the sameness of the rafters— they were al! alike, and whichever one she chanced to hit in h-r hurry there she deposited her mortar. She had been used to a ledge where there was but nn*» building site; here there were half a- .ioien or more, with bo per ceptible difference between them. So I hit i plan to concentrate her. I put blocks of wood or stones in all the nests but one and watched th» result. When now she came upon these strange obstacles, she would hover about for a moment until sho discovered the largest and unmcun nest, whett she would alight upon it and lea her load. She then soon took the hint, rtnish^.i the one nest, laid her second set of eggs and wen' forward ¦with the incubation. But the evil fates still pur sued her. One morninit the nest was empty. Whether the mother bird. too. was carried oft* 13 not known. She was not again seen about the place. . "The art of the bird in the new site was at fault in more than one respect; the moss that served to conceal her nest upon the gray mossy rock only emphasised it and made it consptcuosa upon tha new yellow timber."
