Awakening of Courtesy.Anothfr good word for St. Louis— and not so much for St. Ixuiis as for humanity, black, white and yellow, that one can find scattered over the great exposition grounds.The people seem to be learning courtesy and that it pays to be kind. Ask all the questions you want. The Jap you are talking to may have some difficulty in locating the camp of the Sioux Indians, and he talks brokenly, but he is the acme of politeness, and what he doesn’t know he finds out and tells you. The man who sells popcorn •'walk a piece” with you to be sure that you have the right road to the Oklahoma Building. In the Swedish restaurant the waiter tells you that his wife and chilren have made visits to the fair and has a fine time. The barber discovers that you came from Oshkosh or Milwaukee, and remembers that he was there for a week once, and enjoys a discussion of the merits of the old town.Ask any man in the Boer camp to shew you around and he not only does it without expectation of reward, but tells you many interesting things, and when you leave you shake hands and \ote him a fine fellow. And there are the street cars inside the fair grounds.
