The Cynic Is Respected.

One of the seeming hayward
nesses of our human nature is the
respect for cynic that turks in
nearly every heart. The respect is
not for his character, certainly not
for his disposition, but it goes out
to him as a man of intellect and is
often disproportionate to his abil-
ity. To hear that man is cynical
is to accept him as Of superior in
telligence. There is universal def
erence to what is universally deemed
an unlovely and undesirable atti-
tude Of, mind. The entrance of the
cynic into the drawing room pro-
duces an air of expectant interest.
His rancorous comments are re-
ceiyed as admirable wit. So at least
according to the contemporary nov
els Of society; so even, though in a
somewhat less obvious and artificial
manner, according to ones own OBJ
servation. We all find more inter-
esting the person who discusses his
friends failings than him who
dwells upon his friends virtues. We
do not like the cynic better, but we
regard him as the more penetrating
and the better informed. Arthur
Stanwood Pier in Atlantic.
