A- handful' of good cojnmon sense 'will sometimes serve. better than a college education. Some people I have in mind are so very,; very good that they are very, very disagreeable. • If you can't agree with your neigh-' boi-in politics or religion,- don't talk politics or religion. If you,'are a true gentleman, it will not be necessary for you to state that you weije born one. Never try to • own the earth, my 'friend. ''It contains a few more acres than you can over-see,. You can, of course do as you please but' you: will .have\to- settle -the matter With your- God some day. • _ _ Don't form too hasty opinions, my friend. The other\ man's story may change matters somewhat. Some. Cape Vincent people make a business of wishing, but.there is not much money in it for them. . r Many ,a--man looks upon marriage as an institution that enables him to put his property in his wife's name. Policy always has and always will control too many people and make moral cowards of a whole lot of men. When a young man takes honesty for a partner he belongs to- a firm that has the confidence of the public. Some men I happen to know are as a general, rule more careful of their horse and dogs than they are of their families.

OBservation has forced upon me the, conclusion that many men who pose as'-cynics, iand skeptics are nothing, more or less,than dyspeptics. I have noticed -that there are men in this village who act toward then- wives as if they had conferred a great favor upon-them-by marrying them. Some Cape Vincent men seem to be born iars.
