How often we are tickled most to death by ‘or or a new suit or something that comes into our lives, we hide 99 per cent of that pleasure behind a mask of dness.

Do I especially try to bring out the vague ind half-formed ideas which I have and get of a famous man than to what is said by one of no repute? Do I look more to the truth of the state- ment than to the author of it? Am I a retailer of second-hand ideas— that is, am I given to repeating what I have read or what I have heard others say, and passing it as my own? carefully one oF day, and tain no them into clear ish?

Do I try constantly to use short and strong words, and use long words sparingly, and only when they mean something that cannot be so well expressed otherwise? Do I hold opinions from pride or obstin- acy, or to maintain consistency (which ; Emerson said is “the hobgoblin of little minds”)? Do I hold opinions because I think they will shock people, and get me a reputation for being original or peculiar? Do I seek to make people believe I am well posted upon subjects about which I really know little Do I want others to think me more clever than I am, or less clever than I am?

Do I have the habit of verifying facts by consulting books of reference? Do I hold certain opinions and state them, because I know them to be true, but ise I consider them to be expedient is, that they are moral or profitable or pleasing?
