The Old Chronicler Says, "Manners Maketh Man." "Manners Are Not The
Character, But They Are The Dress Of Character," Adds A Modern Writer.
Manners Are Not The Pure Gold Of The Mind, But They Set The Mint Stamp
Upon The Crude Ore And Fit It For Circulation, And Few There Be Who
May Dare To Set Aside Their Valuation. To Genius Only Is This
Privilege Granted, And Genius Is Exceeding rare.
It Should Be Remembered that More People Can Give The List Of Dr.
Samuel Johnson'S Sins Against Good Manners Than Can Quote From His
"Rasselas" And "Rambler," While There Will Always Be More Who Can
Descant Upon The Selfish, Tyrannical Ill-Breeding of Thomas Carlyle
Than Can Estimate The Value And Immensity Of His Literary Labors.
