...have one or two personal friends in the insurance business, each of whom I can vouch for as being a perfect gentleman and a clear-headed business man. One in particular is incidentally a young Harvard graduate with a cum laude on his sheepskin, who to my knowledge is not given to making "cringing advances" nor to talking to hear himself talk.

Wood, Jr., in "Short, Sweet and Bitter" do not succeed so well in following the difficult master. Both attempt what few people can accomplish skilfully in clearing...
...sailor-hero of Mr. Wright McCormack's story in the April Monthly bears in one particular a grotesque resemblance to Byron's Don Juan when that perpetual lover was sent to sea. In the midst of a lament for the beloved from whom he was separated, Don Juan, usually not at a loss for words, was struck dumb...
