the highest respect find esteem; with others it often seems
r. hardship to preservo even common politeness. Men
who nro on opposite sides of tho main questions nre nat
urally inclined to look upon each other with suspicion
and tho result is rarely pleasant for any one. If a man is
honest in his opinions and honest In his methods ho is
entitled to a degree of respect from his opponents. But,
of nil tho unpleasant characters that are liable to como
forward in a college world, nono is more so than tho one
who professes this honosty and really dees not possess
it. When Dickens painted Mr. Pecksniff In such repuls
ive colurs lie revealed his hatred for tho hypocrlt. A
man who pretends to he friendly holbro tho face and who
fclanders behind the hack is not an admirable "likeness of
God." If anyone lays great claims to honesty, candon
openness of heart and superior sense of justice, nnd when
ho thinks that he Is out ot view, with nono but his own
allies and henchmen to observe him, straightway proceeds
to reveal u talent for common hing and Billingsgate, it
is well to make a nolo of that individual "lor future ref
erence." Deliver us from sneaks and wcuk-knecd hypo
crlts. And follow students If you ever fall in with such
men during your college life give thorn a wide berth as
soon nsthey display their colors.
