To stimulate false hopes means fu'

appointed expectation on the other.
Il is an evil and ehould be avoided.
Oo the other hand, one of the
weaknesses of humanity is to to in
terpret the most casual promise OF
consideration to be promise of some
thing tangible, and to build false
hopes without foundation. This
weakness is an evil SO much as that
of encouraging expectation.
