The wise ones say, “The Groundhog bus, o'er which they raise so great a fuss, may well be worth the price; put when com pared with noble vans now advertised on modest plans, it cuts but little ice.” It's always thus in every line: the trade that is considered fine is drl“‘ln off by brags; men tnink the dealer ‘i a jest who always claims his wares are best, with zeal that never flags. !
