The Unwritten Side OF Great
Men.

We always think of great men as
in the act Of performing deeds which
give them renown or else in stately
repose, grand, silent and majestic.
And yet this is hardly fair, because
the most gracious and magnificent
of human beings have to bother them
selves with the little things of life
which engage the attention of us
smaller people. No doubt Moses
snarled and got angry when he had a
severe cold in his head, and if fy
bit his leg while he was in the des-
ert why should we suppose he did
not jump and use violent language
and rub the sore place? And Caesar
isn't it tolerably certain he used to
stairs to get his Shippers IN rrre -uurn,
and found that Calphurnia had
showed them under the bed so that
he had to sweep around them wildly
with a brOOm-handle? And when
Solomon cracked his crazy bone is it
unreasonable to suppose that he ran
around the room and felt as if he
wanted to cry? Imagine George
Washington sitting on the edge ofthe
bed and putting on clean shirt and
growing ut Martha because the but
tons were off; or st. Augustine with
an apron around his neck having his
hair cut; or Joan of Arc holding her
front hair in her mouth, as women
do, while she fixed up her back hair;
Napoleon jumping out of bed in a
frenzy to chase musquito around
the room with n pillow; or Martin
Luther in night-shirt trying to put
the baby to sleep at two O'Clock in
the mornings; or Alexander the
Great with his hiccoughs; or Thomas
Jefferson getting suddenly over a
fence 20 avoid Il dog; or the Duke of
Wellington with the mumps; or
Daniel Webster abusing his wife be-
cause she hadn't tucked the covers
at the foot of the bed; or Benjamin
Franklin pairing his corns with a ra-
zor; or Jonathan Edwards at the din
ner table, wanting to sneeze just as
he got his mouth full of hot beef; or
Noah standing ut his back window at
night throwing bricks at a cat.-Mcr
