But there is an indigenous Porto

forcibly TO the soldier, namely, Porto

dies expresses desire for a poncho,

dozen other things. the chances are

clearneSs, force and grace. and that as
il means toward these and for other
reasons it was important to be con-

err they no longer teach thus, or their
pupils disregard their instructions,
you can scarcely read a page or col
umn anywhere without meeting words
that add nothing to others with which
