Sir Walter Scott puts jt thus {in a letter : "Life is like a game of j.cards~our hands are alternately good or bad, and the whole seems at first | glance to depend on mere chance. But {it is not so, for in the long run the skill of the player predominates over the casualties of the game." And Sir Walter had a right to speak, for he knew the ups and down of fortune.
