The man who' performs them Huds Ills pleasure In the sacrifice or iu the public opinion which bis sucrilice will arouse. Oue man will give up his for tune to satisfy bis creditors. He doesn't waut any man on earth to think he would defraud a fel low belli?. Ills pleasure Is In the esteem of others. Another man might do Just the reverse.
