THOSE rRIcksrERs.

The Chicago Chronicle does not
think that Edgar Allen Poe should be
admitted to the Hall Of Fame His
work was not deserving Of it. says The
Chronicle.
"A few Of his poems ana more OF his
prose stories have survived in high
favor tin the present and probably will
hold it for many year, but after all
most Of his verse is what may be call
ed trick verse" says The Chonicle
None Of Poe's contemporaries may
have been capable OF the trick. still
less may anybody now be equal to it.
but that does not alter the fact Of the
trick Neither can We keep six butcher
knives flying in the air at once, but

vincing If lt woald tell us some more

as Shakespeare if he had had a mind

No one that went before Poe, was
his contemporary, or lived after him

Of tricks which Poe did Byron, Shel
ley. Keats were tricksters, too. you
know. but curiously enough no modern
trickster has ever been able to turn
out a bit OF verse EXACTLY in the
vein OF any one Of them. Shakespeare
was an arrant trickster too and HryO
was.

The war between science and relig-

.ceaseless struggle the scientist wages
against Cupid. Just the other day we

Now comes oaa Or. Forbes Winslow cf
Washington, u. G., brain specialist,
self appointed annihiliator OF Cupid.
The learned doctor says that love is
practically a thing Of the past His
study Of human brains has led him TO
believe that the higher education. and
All that sort Of thing. has killed love.
Il is just possible that DR. winsiow
got hold Of a consignment Of brains
that had belonged to a New England
seminary
Again, 4 is possible that love does
not leave any trace upon the brain.
The cynics will take this view Of it,
will ask the doctor why on earth he
examined brains to gain information
bearing upon love.
But the majority must think that the
fault is with the examining expert.
What license has one Of these musty.

not susceptible TO chemical analysis.
