Unbiased Opinions.

The only things we get for nothing
in this world are blotters and advice.
1t is not half as much of a trial for
lovely woman, thrown upon her own
self-made man to wear a silk hat the
frst time.
People often become so cultured
that they can enjoy only classical
music, but they seldom acquire enough
refinement to be able to keep from
Boosting about 1t.
Nearly every man is a genius, but
only few are willing to take the risk
of being regarded as fools.
Most great men have hobbies, which
however, are not the things that make
them great.
