dignified customers, entered to look at
goods for dresses. She could not quite

There is q common mistake that
people fall into supposing that to
have any doubt, even in ones own
mind, ON what some one may say
is equivalent to accusing him of
untrnth or insincerity. Nothing
could be more fallacious. Thous-
ands of honest mistakes are made
-under-statements, over-statements
AMI mis-statements-by sincere
and tr,ith-loving persons To make
due allowance for this probability
and for the influence of prejudice,
or one-sidedness which is as un-
conscious as it is habitual, is very
different from casting any slur on

man knows that be, too, is in simi-
lar danger, and viii examine and
