poses herself to the contumely of con-
viction, on quite conclusive circum-
stantial evidence, as an evil creature.
Now, here is the weakness in the
strength of this play. Mrs. Patrick
does those self-hurting things, not for
brothers, like the girl in ''The Three
of U.s." but for a family of total strang-
ers, who have no sort of claim on her
beyond faithful nursing of the mother
at $25 a week. Moreover, in thus serv-
ing the daughters and the son, she es-

IN PRAISE OF THE BORE.
One Man Rises to Defend an Unpopu-
lar Character.

Stevenson has apologized for the
idlers and the thieves and the canni-
balls, but even that most charitable of
men had never a good word to say
for the bore. Neither in life nor in
literature have we ever found a man
bold enough to speak we'll of him;
the crook may be forgiven. but the
bore never is. Poor devil! How all
the world is against him! And yet
this Is scarcely just; for in his way
he Is an excellent thing; an honest
creature. He rs what he is. God
made him a bore; he struggles not
against his destiny, but bore he re-
mains; there is less of hypocrisy
about him than about other men; he
conceals nothing from his neighbor
that interests himself; out of the kind
ness of his heart he passes on his own
experience; he Is generous of himself;
he has a message, and If the hints Of
his hearers should cause him to abate
one syllable Of it he would feel that
he had been false to his mission; the
little insincerities with which more
ignoble men jolly the hours along are
beneath him. Look at his motives
and you will see that he is unjustly
used; we all of US know him, and we
should treat him with more charity,
for upon occasion we have all been he.

Magazine.
