UNJUSTIFIABLE PREJUDICES

Somewhere in the mind of everybody
is . corner reserved for objects or per
sons or Institutions against which he
has prejudice which he cannot justify
or does not care to justify on any
ground whatever except that the aver
sion is present and everlasting. There
is. for instance, the man who Will not
open "A letter where the stamp is
placed upside uoWn. 1t is quite true
that he receives few letters. and very
few indeed which bear a stamp upside
down, but he seems to derive great
deal of pleasure from informing those
of mis- correspondents who commit this
indiscretion that their postal manners
are in need of revision.
Sometimes the letters bear no mark
to show their source, in which case his
wife opens them and provides the nee
essary information. on one occasion
he returned a letter that contained an
acceptance of a proposal to sell a small
farm which he was very DESTROYS of
selling Later when informed that his
aversion to stamps upside down had
