150,000: Austria, 250,000, and Swe

Common SunsU. The phrase "com
mon sense" is generally applied to in
dividuals, and used to indicate a cer
tain style of character. It designates
a man who is well bdhisted and
moves on an even keel one who is
not carried away by the winds of pas
sion or warped by prejudice one who
does not change bin mind very often,
and is not easily led .isti.iy by dreamy
and speculative people. When the
coast is clear and the light is strong,
ho moves boldly and confidently
buthe always feels his way 111 the
dark. He is ciicumspcct that is, as
the ety mology of the w ord signifies ;
ho looks all uiouud before acting, and
not nieicly 111 onciliiection, He very
lately, if ever, makes a fool of himself
and this is a great thing to say- of a
man.
