tions on Now Years Day, because

it seems useless, il not ridiculous, to
have sworn of ut all, and 1T is held
bettor by many not to mako any good
resolutions on New Years day than to
brcak thom after they aro made. a
better way is TO mako the good resolu-
tons and then keep them-to swear
off from bad habits and stay swore
of. That will DO much better than
ridicnling tho making OF good resolu-
tions by others.
