POLITE CONVERSATION
"I would learn," said tne young man to the Chinese sage, "the whole art of polite conversation." "Listen, my son!" replied the sage, holding up a cautionary finger. "I am listening," said the pupil after a long silence. "Be so gracious as to proceed with your instruction." "There is nothing more to tell," answered the smiling sage."—Peter Simple, in the Morning Post.
