Some men are born great others
achieve greatness while others pre-
tend to be great Pretense is the
hub of life W are all ' hypocrites
of a greater or less degree And
some of us are liars - But God made
us so why should we kick? A
“front” is all that U necessary in
any large city In t ie country we
judge a man by wha ha is and what
we know about bin L But in the
"
city he is judged by his clothes
Pretense thy name is potent lie
wno pretends is wise and the brassy
face is all prevailing It is no won-
der that Dannie Chadwick “frogged”

could and especially 1 pert bunch of
petticoats Smart frocks and the

with revenge upon the toad know-
ing not but that one of his aneestofs
may be bound up within its slimy
skin so does the Kansas Cityan look
upon every person “of d appear -ance”
or a possible outcropping of
New York greatness The young
men and tb® maidens — imitators all
—talk big about stocks aiid bonds
and sniff at paltry thousands — con-
versationally A young man (of an
appearance) with but thre dollars
iu his jeans knows high finance to
a finish and bows to every shadow

terious manner find out his name
