You see you get an even thirty to
multiply by and load up the sum to be multiplied sufficiently to
balance. Above 5 call it a deficit and go to your next 10 for your body.
I MENTION THESE TRICKS
not because they are good for anything practical, but to get you to take
up figures and be quick with them. Get yourself up a multiplication
table running to 50 times 50--there's something practical. The man quick
and accurate at figures is always esteemed.
OUR LANGUAGE
is a vast record of the changes in pronunciation which have been brought
about by affected people as well as careless and ignorant people. "'Tis
true 'tis pity, and pity 'tis 'tis true." But you cannot change it by
spelling "balance" with two _ls_, or "sure" with an _h_. Be accurate in
your spelling. Restrict yourself to such words as you can spell, and you
will soon improve if you are guilty of such errors. In conclusion, if
you go fishing and catch three perch and one black bass, say that you
caught those fish, and not that you caught three black bass and one
perch. Right there is where you can form habits that will shine out in
your face as you grow to the full dignity of manhood.
