gloom and pain! Then are some people
who habitually make the brat things,noi
from a sense of duty, not from dislike
of sympathy In altdtciloo, not from as,
shrinking from pain on their own so
donut, tout simply from , a natural, un
conquered and unconquerable lightness
of heart. Thee*. persons supply the
oxygen of the moral and mental atmos
phere, and should be malOtainod at the.
pnblio expense, to keep it sweat and
pure. They are the sunshine of the
moral world, rays of light falling upon
the spirit's gloom.
