laughing consumedly at the same, and
who makes point of thrusting himself
into conversation whether he understands
the drift of the same or not, runs much
better chance of being dubbed Il clever
fellow than does the individual who

to advancing his opinions in Il hcsitating
timid fashion. Even when boisterous
people have been found to he shallow
impostors and to partake largely of the
character of the drum, which looks big
and is so extremely hollow many per
sons still feel Il sort of admiration for
them, and they receive more credit than
is their due. Their boldness, which, in
many instances, amounts to positive i'm

entitle the ten States which we have
