About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ...i'n. 1 kin'dar-gar"tn; 2 kln'der-gar'tn, not 1 kin'ddr-gar'dn; 2 kln'dar-gar'dn kind'ness. " He wishes to express gratitude for many kindnesses "; sometimes objected to on the ground that kindness is an abstract noun.
