Our impress sion probably was based on erroneous premises from the start, but as long as it appeared as a living truth to us we were satisfied; and even after we are compelled to admit that the joke was on us we persuade ourselves that others, if placed in similar circum- stances, would have fared much worse than such clever persons as You, l 6S Go.
