and the exquisite perception ofthe beau

his youth. 1 supposed it to be an emil
nently proper period to praise him as tie
most harmonious of all our literary men,

What quality i'll society is it that
makes 1T necessary for q man to spice
his praise of charming woman whom
he truly respects with some disparaeing
comment, less people shall accuse him OF
being 'smitten," and which makes it
impossible that any woman under
forty should utter hearty praise Of man
worthy of admiration without mourning
the suspicion of being ''in loveH'-
Whatever the quality, it is mean and
despicable. If there can be no sincere
admiration, mo true reverence and friend
ship between men and women, that
does not degenerate into shilly-shally
sentiment and idle love-making, the
Lord pity the world! But there can be,
and is. In the course of my life have
found so few men that / cared to praise,
that / never neglect an opportunity
whenI can. 1t makes no manner Of
difference to me who says / am lin love-
