Tn. Average Man.

The factor which Is overlooked by
those who fear the ascendency of any
ouixotic notion Is the existence OF the
average man. This individual is not
striking personality, but he holds the
balance Of power. Before any extraVa-
rant idea can establish itself 1t must
convert the average man. lie Is very
susceptible and takes Suggestion 80
readily that it seems to prophesy 'ne
comnlete overthrow of the existing or
der Of things. But was ever CONVEX
s,on absolute? The best theologlans
say no. A great deal Of the old Adam
IS always left over. When the average
man takes up with a quixotic notion,
only 30 much of 1t is practically
wrought out as he Is able to compre-
bend. The old Adam Of common sense
continually asserts itself. The natural
corrective Of quixotism is Sancho Pan
zaism. The solemn knight, with his
head. full of visionary plans, is follow
cd by squire who is as faithful as
his nature will permit. Sancho has no
theories and makes no demands on the
world. He leaves that sort OF thing 10
his master. He has the fatalism when
belongs to ignorant good nature ana
the tolerance which is found In easy
going persons who have neither Ideals
nor nerves. He has no Illusions though
he has all the credulity of ignorance

as though a dozen doctors recommended
it. Many physicians do recommend
Wine of Cardui to their patients.
