Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 20, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 June 1910 — Fashionable Vices. [ARTICLE]

Fashionable Vices.

* A real man of fashion and pleasure observes decency; at least/ neither borrows nor affects vices; and, if-he unfortunately has apy, he gratifies them with choice, delicacy and secrecy. I have not^ mentioned the pleasures of the mind (which are the solid and permanent ones), because they do not come under the head of what people commonly call pleasures; which they seem to confine to the senses. The pleasure of virtue, of charity and of learning is true and lasting pleasure, which I hope you will be well and long acquainted with. Adieu! —“Lord Chesterfield’s Letters to His Son."
