In Need of Polish.

A polishing school for gentlemen is iimong the rumors of things to be in this city. Among those now in need of a bit of polish are the following; The man who talks in front of you during the play. The man who talks behind you. The man who in going Ont squeczW past you and your lady at the end of every act, and in coining in squeezes past again without a word of apology. The man who must go out at the end of every act, any way. The man who puts his hat on the next seat north of him on the "L” road ear and his valise and umbrella on the next empty seat south and keeps them there until the passenger needing a seat asks him to remove them. The chronic colloquial interrupter who breaks in on your half-finished sentence with some remark foreign to the subject, Tlie other inntt who takea-ton timco the number of words necessary to tell his story. The bulging man who sits sideways iu the street car and one third of whose dispose overwhelms you if next to him. The man who bustles straight up to his long unseen fsiend who is convers . iug with yon, slaps him on the back and says: “How dy’e?” with a total disregard for your presence. - The man who opens closes Itis car window without the care or sioii concerning the pleasure of others sitting by it. The man who will occupy the other seat at the restaurant table when a halfdozen are vacant about him.— Neic York Graphic.
