There is, first, a natural dalnes of the mind, which we might always call dalaoss, and which is not a

Complacent stupidity irritates as most, per hapa, because it is a travesty of wisdom and has some of the advantages of wisdom. Stupid men often prosper in their dull way, and seem, so far as they are capable of onjoyment, to enjoy their own dulness. Life often hurts the adventurous, and the stapid, whose chief care is not to be hurt by life, despise them for it. They speak of cleverness with contempt, as a useless quality which leads men into dan ger. They imply that they could be elever it they chose, but have been too wise to encourage cleverness in themselves. And there is just enough truth in this to onndemu them. They do
