Next in value to facile tongue is an
untiring pair of ears. Indeed. it is more
than probable that humanity has derived
more solid benefit from its ears than
from the "unruly member" By good
listeners we mean people who can sub;
nit to be bored to an unlimited extent
without interrupting the borer or re-
spending in any other way than by
mods and becks and wreathed smiles"
open your mouth and shut your eyes
and see what heaven will send you" says
the old maxim; but shut your mouth
and open your ears" would be much
more sensible advice. What does man
learn by talking. Nothing. On the

doors on either side Of the temple of

tnually dropping IN" Even the win
dows in front, the eyes. are not more
useful than these doors. Therefore keep
thom always ajar. sleep with one ear
open us well as one eye.
Ii you are in the employ of a loquacious
man of wealth match your listening
powers against his volubility. though it
be as perpetual rs the rush of a torrent.
Your endurance may nave its exceeding
great reward. Don't suppose that he
will conrider you stupid if You make no
verbal reply. Punctuatc his discourse
discreetly with mods and shakes Of the
head, laugh where the laugh comes in,
