A jealous, groveling, tracking
sneak cannot comprehend what is
imported by the word gentlemen"
1t does not mean man who lives
in palace; it does not mean man
whose father was distinguished for
brains. 1t signifies a man who val
ues his honor more than worldly
success; it signifies man who will
not strike a woman and who will
not run from danger; it signifies a
man who would rather die than be-
tray trust and who will sacrafce
himself rather than desert a friend.
The writer once owned negro who
was a gentleman. There is many a
poor man to-day who would have his
bank account if willing to sell his
manhood and his self respect tor
money or for office.

fastened around their heads, and their
noses thrown up so that their threats are
exposed, and then their threats are cut
This operation is always performed by an
officer of the Jewish church, who alone
handles the meat and prepares it for the
market. He must be skillful man, not
