10 without doubt fair game for the cynic and
the satirist, but when we find him taken with a
deadly seriousness and attacked with nero
abuse unrelieved by any trace of humor we are
moro than ever convinced that there are no
Pbilistines so hopeless as those blatant gentlo-
men who are ever freest In their application of

extraordinary decisions common to this species,
one of tho widest IL the belief that the pur-
veyors OF bad literature are. generally, cynical
persons of immense talent, who, for hlthy
lucre, deliberately write down to tho level

that this view is a mistaken one. For. were it
