Public Manners IIV IiII<Ij1A2V KUBSliSLL. 1 Doesn't it seem that tho mon you' see in public places to-day arc n llttlo loss courteous than formerly to women? I do not nlean to suggest tiiat thoy aro actually rude, nor that all mon hnvo ceased to exhibit special it ft pec t for women, but many of our men seem to neglect th0B0 nice little attentions that I formerly woro accorded to every woman. There was a time when no man would remain in a scat while u woman was standing in a street car. Men aro not now so particular. Homo of them bury their faces In nowspapcrii. Oth ers Idly watch women swinging about the car otrapv. it was once a general practice for all men in an elevator to rcmovo their hats when a woman entered. This mark of respect Ie ulno leas In evi dence than in bygone days. Men used to make It a rulo to stand asldo and permit women to ilrst ont&r street cars and public conveyances, r must say that this rule seems hard for tlicni to break, but they are beginniug to violate it. In other instance* there seftmft to be iv tendency to forget or ignore llttlo courtesies which used to give a touch of refinement to life and exhibit a special roftpec: for women. Are we to suppose that tho respon sibility for changing customs rents en tirely upon the men'.' lu It becauuo women" aro so much moro conspicuous and numerous 1n publ'o places, or for tho rosiAon that men and women arc coming into closer contact than for merly? If you will keep your ryos open you will soo women accept *.--ats from men in str- i-t earn without even looking at the one conferring the favor upon them. It Is llkoly that men who are continually treated in that way will soon Join tho ranks behind tho news papers und permit women to stand. In 1 such cases tho women aro firRt guilty j of neglecting to extend a demanded I courtesy. I am wondering whether it is not be-i cause women aro getting cnrolcsa in| tho matter of their attitude and con- , duct in public that mon are more and > more disposed to abandon the pretty; nnd thoughtful attentions they oncoi showered upon tho gentler sex. ltcmcmber: If you oxpcct courteous' treatment from others, you must ns-?l stun oh a respectful attitude before! thom.

Tho skin must bo healthy to pro serve tho bodily visor, and as Its nutri tion depends oa these minute, liairlikc blood vessels, called capillaries, it is essential that tlioy be kept, up to their, work. Exorcise flushes fiieso vessels by means of Its action on the heart, which sonds the blood coursing morel rapidly through its circuit.
