" Except the old and infirm, I cannot help regarding those who 'make use of walking-sticks as idlers, or persons having nothing to do." " Now, I think quite the reverse," replied his friend, " for I look upon them as individuals of the most active and industrious character, who, you see, always like to have comething in hand."
