Ji is a statement which we have
made over and over again, but so
firmly do we believe it that we make it
once more: ~lhe hebit of prefane
swearing is the most ivexcusable evil
and sin that otherwise decent men are
guilty of. The man who blatantly
utters unguarded oaths and talks pro-
fanisy regardless of the presence of
stradgers . those upon whose ears he
knows his profanity grates, is grilty of
a breach of politeness that is inexcusa-
ble in a ventlemar ; and the degree of
Hrorasey of tic breach of politeness
lay be dneasuted according to his ip-
telligence. Afew men do not know
any better, but most me: do. Those
who do not know better a e pretty low
down in the scale and should be * pitied
rather than censured."Scotland Neck
