for the common, and so fritter away
their art in trivialities instead of reali-
ties.
L am believer in Intimacy between
husband and wife-even that intimacy
where politeness may be neglected.
If l were woman 1 would rather live
with a man quarreling and pickering
half the time and love-making the
Other half, than with a ceremony
which precluded demonstration in any
shape or form. The former mode of
living is like eating palatable, if in
dlgestlble food, which makes it neces-
sary to follow it up with bitter medi-

a mOnotOnOus diet of healthy porr1dge.

The man who listens to another
mans wife's domestic troubles is usu-

infelicity.
To be the apOlogist of a fool is not
an enviable position; but there is no

WALTER BLACKBURN HARTE.
Mr.. Cohen, the play carpenter. has
been interviewed as to his methods -
He says: After I have finished one
act I haven't any more idea than you
have what the next one will be-.
There is nothing novel in this. Most
Of the producers of almost-art I'm this
country belong to the jellyfish school.
They haven't enough sense of proper
ton and construction to build a dog
house.
The new Lippincott dictionary has
been suspended at the letter E-just
where we were beginning to get inter-

The Sad Case of MIR. Greatheart.

extreme; and when I found the house
number l sought and mounted four

a magazine article entitled The
Home Life of American Publishers"
We live very simply, as you see
said Mr. Greatheart, waving a hand
around the shabby but scrupulously
clean apartment.
