Rare Book Room. Handwriting tips. You’ve decided you want to improve your handwriting and you’re probably hoping a fountain pen will do the trick -- maybe a friend told you it would.

Web Of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System And How We Can Break Free by Ellen Brown Want to see just how the economy got so bad?

So one fine morning in the spring they both set out along the road that led from Kyoto to Osaka, one from one end and the other from the other.

"What a pity we are not bigger," said the Osaka frog; "for then we could see both towns from here, and tell if it is worth our while going on. " "Oh, that is easily managed," returned the Kyoto frog. This idea pleased the Osaka frog so much that he at once jumped up and put his front paws on the shoulder of his friend, who had risen also. "Dear me! " The Mirror of Matsuyama Source: F. "Buried!
