this Is caused by besotted ignorance, and
since books are sent free of charge to every

no excuse for ignorance when it costs
nothing to be informed. People who be-

are either intellectual pariahs incapable of

sluggards and cannot screw themselves up

their opinions are as valuable as that of
Puget sound oysters.
