By a process of false reasoning ami

that hasty judge, the public, 1t usually
exists without them. Nothing was ever

only people for whom 1t is nearly i'm
possible to cultivate amiability. It is
very difficult for q really weak man
to be sweet tempered.
The first thing which the person who
desires to be amiable must determine
to do is never TO produce fear among
