your name in kindness, love and mercy on the hearts of the
thousands you come in contact with year by year, and you will never be
forgotten.--CHALMERS.
The drying up a single tear has more
Of honest fame, than shedding seas of gore.
--BYRON.
FASHION.--Fashion's smile has given wit to dullness and grace to
deformity, and has brought everything into vogue, by turns, except
virtue.--COLTON.
A woman would be in despair if Nature had formed her as fashion makes
her appear.--MLLE. DE L'ESPINASSE.
Fashion is not public opinion, or the result of embodiment of public
