After some years of acquaintance with Germany as school-boy, as student at the universities, and lately as a most hospitably received guest by all sorts and conditions of men, I do not remember meeting a fop.
Think how public institutions dwarf the brains and souls of unhappy children condemned to live in them. No chance there for individual, separate development.

"Es bildet ein Talent sich in der Stille, Sich ein Charakter in dem Strom der Welt." Goethe.
This was a sound instinct, for it is now recognized as an extremely important part of puericulture that a woman should rest at all events during the latter part of pregnancy; see, e.g., Pinard, Gazette des Hôpitaux, November 28, 1895, and Annales de Gynécologie, August, 1898.
