Max 0'Rell, the talented Frenchman
whose writings and lectures have made
him always sure Of an audience, dis
cusses through the January Forum some
traits Of the American character which
impressed him during his recent visit TO
this country. The article tells plainly
some plain truths, but 1t Is conceived in
spirit OF the highest frlendliness and
admiration. One thought particularly
worth considering, not because II is new
but because it is old. Says Max 0'Rell:
Good society in America holds aloof
from politics, aud, think, from politi-
clans also. So fur rs can see, q gentle
man has but to mix himself up IN poll
tics in America to become declaSic, to
lose caste In polite society, The in

been, and still Is, considered that a hand
in tho ruling Of nation is an honor OF
which the proudcst gentleman may BIO
proud, am persuaded that tho Eng.
iish, monarChists though they be, would
obtain even constitutional reform far
sooner than the so.Called democrats OF

Everybody knows this to DO true in

best blood and the best society Of tho
land. They not only did not feel IL
beneath their dignity to take an active
part In public affairs, but they stuked
all they possessed that they might give
to their country all that was in them.
Then came relapse, from which we
now seem to be recovering, though tho
