To the Afflicted.
A word of comforting advice to all those—and they are many—both men and women, who are nursing a secret sorrow, grieving that they are short, small of stature, below the average size. Let them think of those more than consolatory words, in that famous passage in Henry the Eighth, where Shakspeare speaks of—"the blessedness of being little."
