Visit to Tuparoa.
GISBORNE, March 23. The picturesque township of Tuparoa, 30 miles south of the East Cape, presented a. festive scene this morning on the occasion of the Governor's visit, Maori and pakeha having combined to display their patriotism. A great cheer arose as the Tutanekai steamed up the bay shortly after 9 o'clock. His Excellency, qn landing, was presented with an address of welcome.
t POLITENESS. If those who are doubtful as to the correct course to pursue in any given situation will remember that even the wrong thing is overlooked if one is but absolutely polite in the doing of it, their relief might be great. A genuineness of demeanour and a courteous response or question can never be out of place. A man may wear a business suit of clothes to a wedding less noticeably than a truculent air of insolence. If he be perfectly well-bred as far as behaviour goes, it matters not so much what his outward garb, although by an unwritten law of social observance certain clothes are the correct thing for certain occasions. Politeness ia never wrong. Its practice goes nearly all the way toward the goal of the right thing in the right place. With politeness, correct dress and boots polished with TAN-OL you art a welcome guest in any good society, TAN-OL is synonymous with all that ia good, in polishes for tan footwear all that is best. And you cannot have bet ter than the beet. Price 6d (paste), la (liquid).
