Many that are forgetful and heedless from a lively temper, will shake off that weakness when they grow older and more sedate. Others af- fect to be thoughtless, because they imagine that it gives them an appearance of learning. Fools of that sort deserve to be pitied ; and I would advise you to take no notice of their studied distraction. They ought to be treated VOL. I. K ISO PRACTICAL PHILOS...OPHY like those that pretend being nervous or sickly to create interest. But if you be connected with people who really have a short memory, you will do well to advise them to write down what- ever they wish to retain, and to peruse these memorandums frequently ; for nothing is more disagreeable than to be connected with people who promise to execute business of importance for us, to rely upon their word, and to find after- wards that they do not recollect a syllable of it. I must observe on this occasion, that it is wrong to be provoked or vexed if people who are naturally inclined to be heedless and dis- tracted, sometimes neglect to shew us the civi- lity and attention which we have a right to ex- pect, as this is done unintentionally, and with- out any view to offend us.
