ersons."
(5) The Sign of Quantity is "no."

"No | not-brave persons | are | persons deserving
of the fair."

"A lame puppy would not say "thank you" if you offered to lend
it a skipping-rope."
(1) The Subject is evidently "lame puppies," and all the rest of
the sentence must somehow be packed into the Predicate.
(2) The Verb is "would not say," &c., for which we may
substitute the phrase "are not grateful for."
(3) The Predicate may be expressed as "* * * not grateful for
the loan of a skipping-rope."
(4) Let Univ. be "puppies."
(5) The Sign of Quantity is "all."
(6) The Proposition now becomes
"All | lame puppies | are | puppies not grateful
for the loan of a skipping-rope."

"No one takes in the _Times_, unless he is well-educated."

("no _one_" evidently means "no _person_").
(2) The Verb is "takes in," for which we may substitute the
phrase "are persons taking in."
(3) The Predicate is "persons taking in the _Times_."
(4) Let Univ. be "persons."
(5) The Sign of Quantity is "no."
(6) The Proposition now becomes
"No | persons who are not well-educated | are |
persons taking in the _Times_."

"My carriage will meet you at the station."
(1) The Subject is "my carriage." This, being an 'Individual,'
is equivalent to the Class "my carriages." (Note that this Class

(2) The Verb is "will meet", for which we may substitute the
phrase "are * * * that will meet."
(3) The Predicate is "* * * that will meet you at the station."
(4) Let Univ. be "things."
(5) The Sign of Quantity is "all."
(6) The Proposition now becomes
"All | my carriages | are | things that will meet
you at the station."

"Happy is the man who does not know what 'toothache' means!"
(1) The Subject is evidently "the man &c." (Note that in this
sentence, the _Predicate_ comes first.) At first sight, the
Subject seems to be an '_Individual_'; but on further
consideration, we see that the article "the" does _not_ imply
that there is only _one_ such
