The history of money in the Roman republic was a succession of to make a double standthe republic supThat work. ard plied its citizens with a sound and an honest medium of exchange Is testimony both to their ability and their character. and experience convinces me that talking Is hard work ; that it Is not merely a mental effort, but that it is a physical effort that is wearing on the muscles as well as the nerves. The toil of making conversation' which is undoubtedly the most unnecessary activity that humanity engages in Is more exhausting than the most arduous physical labor. I mean that It is for the people who dont talk too much. The people who do talk too much have to make conversation because what they think is conversation burbles from their lips like the water from a never-failin- g spring. People, of course, cannot give previous thoughtful consideration to all the remarks that they make as to their justifiability and effect, even though they experience repeated instances where after consideration is extremely disconcerting; talk, even discreet talk, must have some spontaneity ; but it is certain that the less they say the less danger there will be of a subsequent feeling of regret. I dont think that the people who talk too much are really any more untactful than the people who dont, and when they say things that are better left unsaid the effect is diluted by their general gush of words till it is hardly noticed. It is the people who dont talk much that must watch their step or their tongues. The Infrequency of their remarks tends to make their hearers note, and perhaps remember, what they say. So it really wouldnt appear to be safe to say anything which would make life somewhat duller, and a good deal less laborious.
