A man with sideboards may be wise, a shining light to other guys, but ten men out of nine or eight will view him with a deathless hate, and wonder why he'll thus behave when twenty cents will buy a shave. And where's the man who can explain why sideboards don't seem safe and sane? Why do they make most men see red, and yearn to punch the wearer's head? The man who leads a dog around may be a scholar most profound, may be endowed with vir- tues fine, equipped in any crowd to shine. But men who see him will remark, "He ought to do that after dark; a man shof® be ashamed, by Jing, to lead a bow-wow with a string when there are chores that should be done ere yet the night obscures the sun."
