Présentation de l'éditeur
Handera began life he was eight years old. This statement does not warrant the inference that he had put off being born until he was ready for string-top and jack-knife. Mandera conformed to the conventionalities at birth, and devoted the usual time to clamorous and practical opposition to those demands of life and infantage which seem to strike incipient men and women as so many absurd devices for their discomfort and annoyance. Doubtless, were it left to the choice of the average boy, there would be a prompt reformation of natal conditions, and man would be born of woman as Minerva sprang from Jove, fully equipped for the moral and physical arena, where his energies are to be tried and defied. The human economy, indeed, already demands of science some such improvement upon the principal methods of the race in the matter of its self-multiplication.
