There is an eternal masculine as
there Is an eternal feminine, and in
the young masculine animal of the
human race the idea that it is not con-
sistent with his dignity and strength
of character to be considered too good
develops early. This was shown the
other day by very little man named
Vincent, who is SO small that his
knowledge of the use of words is as
yet very rudimentary. The little girl,
who is older, had returned from Sun
day school, and grandmamma had
asked her, on general principles, what
the lesson was about.
"Oh, about angels" replied the little
girl indefinitely, and then, seeing a pos
sible application, she turned to the
baby, adding, "And you are little
angel, aren't you, Vincent?"
Baby might have been expected to
be pleased at this compliment, affec-
tionately given, but not at ALL He
screwed up his small face, threw all
the force Of his small mind into the
putting together of the proper words,
and burst out:
Mo- bad boy"

There are distinctions without diff.

tinctions. A small man, noted for his
economy in speaking the truth, demon
strated this fact. After long and ex-
asperating career Of prevarication,
chance brought him up against a big
ger individual who had the courage of
his convictions. also a nice sense Of
discrimination in the use Of Ian
guage. He said things to the little
man-things that made him writhe
and turn purple in the face. But
the worst Of it all was" whined the
little man to a confidant later, "he
never once called me a liar-said
was nothing but a miserable little
storyteller."
