There are so many types Of flY-man-

Putting aside tho telling Of white lie
that some persons think 80 wicked,
there remsins 10 them the virtue Of

whose Indifference is only a passive

In room full people. She does not
exert herself to talk, TO be polite, and

1t will not be disputed that the necessity
