To counteract any tendency of the sides to draw apart, a light cross bar should be fixed on the back of the ladder behind the top and bottom rungs. Round off the end angles of the rungs, and apply a second coating of paint.
Each of you is thus a little nail in the different world-wheels; whoever despises others shows that he considers his wheel the first, or imagines that the world is a wheelbarrow, which goes upon one wheel! No, it is a more complicated machine." Later in the evening, when the company broke up, Otto and Wilhelm went together. "I do not think," said Wilhelm, "that thou hast yet said thou to me.
