The average man is judged, not
by his character, but by his reputa-
ton; character is something he
makes by himself by the way he has
of being and doing; whereas reputa-
ton is thing manufactured largely
by over-zealous friends and deceit
full enemies.

employed. Blows from sticks and
stones cause only pain, which is as
nothing compared to wounds of the
heart caused by. words of the evil
