TASTE AND MANNERS. 



What is the difference between taste 

 and manners? 



It may be bad manners to knock a 

 man down ; but it is not necessarily bad 

 taste. 



A rich man in Philadelphia gave a re- 

 ception and issued invitation cards upon 

 which were engraved his picture. This 

 was not bad manners. It was certainly 

 bad taste. 



A large, handsome woman once broke 

 into a meeting of President Lincoln's 

 Cabinet, interrupting the proceedings. 

 The homely Lincoln arose and, address- 

 ing her, said : 



"Madam, what do you wish?" 



She replied: 



"I came in here to take a look at you." 



Lincoln smiled. 



"Well, madam," he replied, "in the 

 matter of looking, I have a distinct ad- 

 vantage of you." 



That was both bad taste and bad man- 

 ners on her part ; and on the part of 

 Lincoln it was good manners and good 

 taste to refrain from throwing her out 

 of the window, as in strict justice he 

 should have done. 



Good taste is largely a matter of ex- 

 perience, united to natural abilities. 



To go up to your father-in-law at 

 your wedding breakfast, with a bottle 

 of champagne in your hand, and slap- 

 ping him on the back, calling him "old 

 sport," is not only bad taste and bad 

 manners, but wretched sense, especially 

 if the old gentleman is worth a million. 



To be told that your friend is too 

 busy to see you in his office and then 

 to call him up over the nearest tele- 

 phone, is not necessarily bad taste, but 

 bad manners. The two may go to- 

 gether, but this is not an invariable 

 rule.
