when the perverse person Is q man, deep
are the curses. II Samaritan then comes
along and suggests that the door be pushed
to the right instead of the left the chances
are that he gets scowl for his pains. and
the door is flung around on its axis with
the speed of a top. just to demonstrate the
superiority Of mind over matter.
The small boy and the revolving door
make a bad combination. but 1t is no fault
of the door, The small boy has just the
same kind of fun with the swinging panel,
which he is particularly pleased to hold
back to the limit and then slam full speed
into the face Of the next conner. The small
boy has an innate tendency to slam all
doors-revolving, swing and plain. The
only safe system OF exits and entrances in
the boy world Is doorless.
Perhaps some day the keep-to-the-right
principle will establish itself and the re-
volving door will be understood by all
Corners Meanwhile there is no better
amusement than to stand for half an hour
alongside the entrance of busy establish
ment and watch the antics Of the perverse
ones who think they know more about re-
volving doors than the man who invented
them. ---,-.-.-..

In its leaders. They explain It's long-con-
tinued success. They have piloted 1t to
victory after victory. But they are still
very necessary. 1t has none to spare.
Especially none to spare as victims OF mere
local factonalism. The men who have as
sisted In shaping the course the party Is
now pursuing are the ones 1t must lean
upon while the course is new If success Is
to be permanent.
This much may be said of Mr.. Spooner
without considering that he Is in danger at
home. He Is a good fighter, and will look
out for his own top-knot. II his colleague
takes the field with scalping knife In hand
he will find 1t advisable to have care for
his own tempting poll. Two can play at
that game. In such circumstances we
should all witness stirring engagement.
But, as already stated, the fate Of Mr..
Spooner will be of SO much more than
local interest and Importance it may be
considered advisable when the time comes
not to try the case by the small standards
of local factionalism. but by the larger SEN
timent attaching to first-class man, who
has made good for Wisconsin and the
party in the broadcast field in the country,
and as respects the biggest questions the
country has now at heart.

Spooner and La Follette.

II 1t shall prove to be true that Mr.. La
Toilette Is sharpening his knife to take the
scalp of his colleague, Mr.. Spooner, he will
discover that 1t Is not exclusively a Wis
consin AFFAIR. The country at large has.
and Will manifest. some interest in the
fate of so able and useful a man. No de-
batter In the Senate Is the superior of Mr.
Spooner. and but few are rated as his
equals. His party Invariably puts him
forward when the firing is brisk. and /,
has never once had occasion to regret Its
choice. He Is ready. witty. eloquent, re-
sourceful In every way. He knows the
law. the rules of procedure and the Con-
stitution. His personal popularity gives
him a prestige OF fits own on both sides OF
the chamber. The disappearance of such
a man. therefore. from such an arena would
be in the nature of a national loss.
Like all strong men. Mr.. Spooner has
aroused antagonisms. and as the result OF
them Is the subject OF much msrepresenta-
ton He has more than once been set
down as secret opponent of the Presi-
dent. when, a matter of fact. he has
been a constant and a welcome caller at the
White House. There was no ambiguity In
his deliverances last session on the railroad
rate bill. although his critics Insisted that
he desired the defeat of the measure under
discussion. He shirks no duty. lodges nc
vote. II Is as easy to find him when a
battle is on as any man In the chamber.

Human Nature and Revolving Door

human NATURE du0 0oVO4VAuS 0OOTSs
Gradually. but slowly. the world is ad-
justing itself to the revolving door. It Is a
tedious and occasionally a painful process,
attended by bumps and embarrassments
and sprains This Is no fault of the re-
volvlng door, which Is an institution Of ex-
cellent qualities, but 1t is due to certain
traits of human nature, which do not easily
adjust to the new device. 1t would seem as
though there are some men and women
who simply cannot get acquainted with the
revolving door. They balk at 1t Just as q
nervous horse shies at sheet Of paper.
Something about it either stirs all the per-
versity in them or paralyzes their reason
ing faculties. They fight the revolving
door In the spirit Of Don Quixote fitting at
windmilis.
Why otherwise. Is it that so many women
will persist in trying to force their way
through a revolving doorway by pushing
the wrong way? The door sticks and
moves a few inches and then comes to q
sullen stop. The would-be pusher puts ON
more steam and the door shakes and re-
sists Then more steam and perhaps an
inch is gained. Then a bright light Is shed
upon the brain of the pusher. and she sees
the space beyond the stubborn panel and
enters that and repeats the process. The
door is still obdurate. Once In great
while the machine is moved around by
these assaults until its eonqueror is enabled
to squeeze through. putting and high COM
plexioned-
Then there is the door fighter who yields
after a few pushes in the wrong direction
and goes around to another entrance. and
tries the trick again. The same thing hap
pens. and than loud are the walls and.
