many of them and discovered that

One can not always protect one
self from rudeness; that comes to all
the jewellers in this not wholly socially
satisfactory world. To be snubbed.
however, is impossible to one who
keeps the position to which he is en-
titled. He is foolish to accuse him
self OF having been pushing his way
where he had no right by asserting
that he has been rebuked by any body.
1t he is capable of taking the high
ground that is his wherever it may
please him to go, of course he at one
stroke does away with the possibility
OF being rebuffed by any body whom
soever.
