QS oo e on i, IDEAS OF A PLAIN MA! l e e ——rmsarrETTh. Individuality. The very hardest thing in the world, my son, you will find to be this: to form your own opinions and stick to them. »All around you is a mass called pub- lic opinien. It is the belief of the mob. As the atmosphere encloses your body and exercises a pressure of fifteen pounds to every square inch of your skin, 80 this common opinfon con- stantly forces itself upon you. Sometimes it is good, sometimes bad, never wholly either good or bad. You are a man just in proportion as Jou can yleld to it and resist it wise- y. It is as bad always to oppose cur- rent notions as it is always to yield to them. To be a professional rebel is as silly as to be a professional camp follower. Be neither, Weigh things for your- self. Accept nothing that does not convince you. Don't go with the mul- titude just to be ‘agreeable; don't be stubborn just to be peculiar.
