As a nation, we may take pride in the fact that we are softhearted; but we cannot afford to be soft-headed.

We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.
I had myself felt the power of this fascination while using it one day upon a softhearted blond creature who thought it delightful to have a Blue-Beard for a lover.

The wife of a squatter was about to leave the station for a few years, that her daughters might have the opportunity of acquiring accomplishments unobtainable in the Bush. When the hour of departure arrived, the blacks about the place loudly expressed their sorrow.
