In slrengtbi of mind and vigor of body, thie other fellox's tlîouglîts and ideas and opinions do not loom very large or very important, and are likely 10 be scoffcd aI and -- ridiculed wibb scant cercmony and less courtesv.

But tbc sustained years of maburity also draw to a close, and the cbadows of age can be discerncd iin tbe offing..

There is a disposition to respect bbc opinions of those who bave had equal ýopporbunity 10 learn; 10 be more tolerant of those of differenl religious faibli or- political affiliations; 10 give a litIle credil here and there 10 business rivaIs, and 10 condemn less string- ently the frailties of neighbors and f riends. If, in treading tbe upward steps of the years, an eminence is reached f rom wbicb a clearer view. reveals that, in a world ini wbich, truth is so diffi- cuit 10 find, intolerance is but a hindrance 10 human progress and must be cast aside, that should be compensation enough.
