"A wise merchant wants just as few

1t is often supposed that the only
opportunity that a man has to show his
modesty, is when he has done some
great or good thing, for which he has
been praised, or is at LEAST deserving o.
praise. But just as much may one be
modest when he has b!undered,' or has
done something questionable, or that is
worthy of censure. Then it is that one
is most tempted to rise up and assert
himself, to declare his superiority o
judgment, or taste, or knowledge.

Gisele, who was in her 18th year,
was very beautiful She was natural
blonde. Her smile had the double adj
vantage Of showing pretty teeth and
two charming little dimples in her
rosy checks. Her eyes were very
handsome, but their glance was some

robe of soft white, clinging material
that set off to advantage her girlish
beauty.

devotion he gave her the greatest salts
