not be natural in demeanor if you are not
properly attired, and it's useless to attempt
it. An awkwardly dressed man is almost
certain to be correspondingly awkward in
manner. He doesn't feel comfortable and
he cannot help betraying it. He may have
paid for his suit twice its value but he'll
never get any pleasure out of it. You will

the riverside.
The following morning the elephants

By a skillful combination of leading
and driving they were slowly urged along
