The Scandal-Monger’s Business

"The scandal-monger does the devil's retail business," says President Hyde, of Bowdoin College. "Scandal consists of putting a grain of truth with a bushel of surmises, inferences, misinterpretations, and innuendoes, and peddling the product as unquestioned fact." That is poor business, but the scandal market is exceedingly lively nevertheless.—Evangelical Messenger.
