Lysander John Rebels
by THOMAS TAPER.

on August 7, 1911, there died at Graz,
Austria. a man who was essentially great,
true to himself and to his calling.
His name was Max Dc IIpman. He
was by birth a baron but he preferred
not 10 use tho title, ana to live among
his associates as a man successful in
his calling. lie was the foremost news
paper illustrator In the United States,
when, IN 1885, he was stricken with
paralysis.
Readers recall this artists work; that
ne produced with his creative brain and
his right hand.
Then he became paralyzed. his speech
was affected, ana his right hand and arm
became useless. What did he do?
lie patiently set himself 10 work 10
study drawing again with his left hand
This task this going 20 school to mas
ter the other side OF his body, while try
! ing 10 adjust himself to life with half his
body stricken with uselessness, took
! eighteen months. Then he went back to
! his desk again.
! Up 10 the time OF hts death he worked
with the same enthusiasm that made him
determined to conquer his left hand. II
Is said Of him that he made pen and ink
| sketches Of more men in public life than
any other living areist,
1t Is often impressive TO read what men

move us. We are apt to think that they
/ belong to other days. But here Is a case

| here among US. Max De LiDman, from
the day Of his physical misfortune in 1898
was solving as difficult task as falls "a

with body broken IN health, he under

dreds OF thousands of dollars with his

lutely deaf for quarter OF a century
went on undaunted writing the music
that he could not hear save In the imagi
nation that gave It birth.

he pronounced judgment upon us, But
he has studied us in Paris, OH dear, yes.
All OF our frothy, freaky specimens who
can't be endured ut home, all our artistic
temperaments who necessarily have sacrl-
feed rational everyday living to their
studies, all our idle rich, including many
OF our fashionable Divorces, who couldn't
recognize a LASTING" quality, let alone
possess one-all of these representative"
American types Mr.. Bennett has studied.
And that is all that is necessary.
Sh-h! sister, don't say It,
Yes, | know that there are some mil
lions OF us who never saw Paris, who
couldn't voice an epigram TO save our
lives, wNs couldn't Exhaust ourselves In
brllliancy or repartes," because we don't
possess any OF either article.
Millions OF MS who keep house, raise
our babies, share our husbands cares
and Joys and sorrows, and, according to
the testimony OF the men of our own
families who know us best, wear and
last and understand while there is
breath In our bodies.
But don't whisper II TO Mr.. Bennett.
An Engllshman doesn't want to be told
anything. IL he once determined upon a
statement II holds good for time and
eternity, world without end. Amen.
Tho only woman who could have
changed Mr.. Benefits opinion of Ameri-
can women is that famous bride who
cuddled close to her husband, laid her
cheek upon his shoulder, and, looking up
into his eyes soulfully duerled:
Tell me, dear, Is the world round2"
II she had married Mr.. Bennett
But / always have had my doubts
about her being an American girl. There
must have been strain Of English blood
in her somewhere.
or course, It is going TO be very hard
to struggle along under the stigma of Mr..
Benefits characterization. But then,
sisters. we've heard this sort OF impu,
dence far more than some OF us would
care to confess, and stlll we live and move
and have our being and manage to secure
the lions share OF the love, loyalty and
pocketbook OF that prince OF mankind,
| the American man.
SO let us reconsider any impulse to shed
the life blood of the tabloid Englishman.
Miss Petty did her little best, you
know.
Let II rest there.

than is that chapter In his American
Notes that relates his Impressions OF
Miss BrIdgmans attainment.
1t is wonderful privilege to have a
body finely attuned, In splendid comb
ton, capable Of responding to any de-
mand We make on It. But We must al
ways remember that back OF the body
there Is the mind, ready and capable OF
speaking It's message, even though tho
body on which II has depended is sud
denly bruised and broken.
Men who face affliction and rise SUI
perior to 1t are they who realize the
supremacy OF tho mind. II one cylinder

But they como In.
First-It Is easy to learn TO depend on
outside helps, and to overlook the mind
power that IS the one real thing.
Max De Lpman kept his title OF baron
hidden, and offered himself to the world

as an artist.
Second-lt Is easy when afflction over

own body and give up losing sight OF the
very power that makes the body act

II aside, to forget 1t, TO sit down patti

mated their hearts grow into a calm af-
lection, and many a little sliding panel
in the heart is left unguarded-the little
panel of vanity the little panel of self
Indulgence, the little panel of love, Of
power-and through the small doors enter
discord, danger and despair, unless the
caretakers are on guard, ready with gun
and sword to drive them off the domain
of peace and happiness.
There are few women so completely
and absorbngly in love with their hus-
bands that they are insensible to the ad-
miration of other men; and few men
capable of a love so masterful that they
turn away unmoved when temptation
looks them in the eyes.
But there are many women, thank God
and some men, who love enough and who
have sufficient common sense and good
taste to turn admiration into respect, and
to say to temptation, Get thee behind
me, satan" and so keep their own beau
tiful kingdom of romance free from de-
vastating marauders ...g.
And those men and women go down
the western slope of life together know
ing a happiness and a peace and a love
impossible to be understood by those who
have yielded TO every passing within Of
the mind, to every call of the sense, to
each magnetic influence,
And only such know real happiness.
After there has been a trespasser on
te domain, after good sense, unselfish-
ness or will has slept at the post of duty
and let in the poachers, life can never
again know the old white, strong, clear
light of perfect peace, perfect confidence,
absolute trust.
But it can know calmness, freedom
from pain, and gratitude that the devas-
tation was not greater
SO this man who has taken back his
wife will have many peaceful hours,
many moments Of satisfaction that he
did no send his erring woman on n down
ward path alone and so many women
who have taken back faithess and I'M
kind husbands enjoy a pale second
honeymoon, basking in the dim light Of
the depleted orb, glad that even that is
left to them
And it all means experience and is all
a part of the character building for which
mortals are sent to earth.
And it is wholly in accord with the
marriage vows, which men and women
take SO thoughtessly and so frequently
violate when the times comes to carry
out the promise of taking this man, or
woman, FOR worse" instead OF better"
All honor to the men and women who
forgive and try to forget! And all sym
pathy for them, since it is the law that
sorrows crown Of sorrow is remember
ing happier things!"-Copyright, 1911,
by American-Jo Journal Examiner.

The affinity refused and made sneer-
ing remarks.
Whereupon the husband killed him.
Now, having been freed by the jury,
according to the unwritten law, the hus-
band has asked his wife to return to
him and go away and begin life over
under new conditions
This man seems to feel the force of the
words he used on his wedding day, ITO
take this woman for better or for worse
until death do us part
His love for her must have died a pain
full death; but pity has taken its place,
and a high sense of duty.
The man feels responsible for the future
of the woman he married, and instead of
letting her go the downward path, while
he seeks happiness with some other bet
ter woman, he is standing by her side,
ready to guard and protect her to the end,
1t is not possible for two people to
know absolute romantic happiness after
a third person has intruded upon their
domain.
When a man and woman set forth in
life as lovers and establish marital
kingdom, where the doves of peace and
the love birds build their nests among
green trees, good sense, judgment un-
selflshness and will must be stationed
at intervals, as caretakers. and the men,
