A Smokbb.—" Smoking in Holland," said a traveller, " is so common that it is impossible to tell one person from another in a room full of smokers." How is anyone who happens to be wanted picked out. then P " asked a listener. " Oh, in that case, a waiter goes round with a pair of bellows and blows the smoke from before each face till he recognises the person called for. Eact, gentlemen."
Pause.—You are in haste to be wise ? But pause again. Tour brain will only bear so much, and if you overcrowd it jour only cbance is gone. Hasto makes waste—the wrong kind of hasto, I mean; the baste that makes you rush on, heedless of health or of anything sare to be first at the goal. But make biiste slowly, and the battle is won.
