Three Classes,
Henry Thomas Buckie's thoughts and
conversation were always on a high
lavel. Once he remarked:
“Men and women range themselves
into three classes or orders of intelli
gence. You ean tell the lowest class by
their habit of always talking about
persons, the next by the faet that
their habit Is always to converse about
things, the highest by their preference
for the discussion of idens.”
