AN ARGUMENT.

1t is the part OF every householder,

issued It would be suicidal TO all gov

employee. servant or child. From the
nature OF things. they cannot judge the
necessity or worth Of the command il
is their part 10 carry out.
Many funny stories are told OF fresh

the thought was new, that their first

And after that Toms unsympathetic
