was found a melancholy tale By Edgar Salt

pressing passages About eighty years ego
fashionable society in London affected great
admiration for Addison's tragedy CT Cato
After one of he stage ren}itons Of The play
e man named Budget, impressed by the
closing scene of the play, in which the hero
commits suicide, left the theatre and. pung-
inp into the Thames, was drowned. On MS
body was found this coupet
What Cato did and Addison approves
Must needs be right
While such susceptibility to pessmIstlc
writing as was shown by Berth and Budeeii
;s of course. extremely rare, 1t is neverthe-
less fact that an author who depicts lie IN
drearv colors is sure to exert most unoe-
sirsble Influence over many OF his readers.
The force OF Iiis applies to I'll kinds OF
writing. Whether man pens ap,epic poem

philosophy is sure to leave lis ultimate e.
feet on those who peruse h!a words Is 1t
not, then, incumbent upon an author 10
