Two quotations from _The Publisher's Circular_:--

"Mr. Robert Bowes (who by the way is in his sixty-seventh

year)...."

"Mr. Robert Bowes is in his seventy-ninth year.... But then he

is much younger than many older men."

So are all of us. Mr. BOWES'S distinction is in being twelve years

younger than himself.
