Big "r. in Enelish Writing.

Did it ever occur to you that 1t might seem very egotistical for you to write of yourself with capital q" instead of using the small and less obtrusive one? The English use of the capital T" is one of the oldest features of the language-to a for, eigner. If Frenchman writes refer. ring to himself he makes "ie" (ths French equivalent of I'D with a small "i" So with the German, who may ase capitals t. begin every noun; hs always uses the small i" in writ- ing "ich." The Spanlard avoids, as far as practicable, the use of the per. sonal pronoun when writing in the first person. but he always writes K 'yo." taking pains, however. to begin tEe Spanish equivalent of our you" with capital In English it is snre- ly big T" and little you. as the old saying has it.
