The BacOnian HypctheSi

4. A fourth hypothesis is the IA
nous Baconian theory. Joseph {.
Hart, an American, like most OF the
Baconians, I am ashamed to say, was
the first in 1S4S to raise doubts as to
the authorship of the Shaksperean
plays Miss Della Bacon was the
earliest avowed skeptic in regard to
the established facts Of his career.
You will not be surprised to learn
that she died insane in 1859. two years
after the publication Of her views.
William Henry Smith. a Londoner.
enjoys the unenviable distinction of
having first put forward the belief
that Francis Bacon was the author Of
Shakspere's plays.
The arguments OF the Baconians
may be reduced to four: Cd They say
there Is no proof to establish the iden-
tity Of Shakspere, the obscure actor,
with the author OF these dramas.
The reply that the overwhelming mass
of contemporary evidence which one
finds in "a Century OF Praise" and
other testimony collected by Malone,
Halliwell-Phillips, Furnivan, Furness,
and other"a thousand-page Life OF
Shakspere. should be to any rea-
| sonable mind a complete refutauon OF
this arbitrary and baselesS contention.

car at eth street.
The womans face was like yellow
glazed wax and her body wavered with
every hesitating step. The two men
stared after her as she tottered toward
the market. and one said to the other, in
continuation of the subject in hand:
Yes. sir. 1 give that old lady just one
hour to live. She'll never reach home

Then the font Of knowledge got up to
leave the car and the bag woman thank
ed her again. and said something nice
about her luck in meeting up with one
who knew all about making crochet
bags And that was all there was to
the incident. except that
Well. to come right down to 1t, the
Font didn't know how to make crochet
bags. She was simply an authority on
balls. All us experts have to be special

whole business. Some experts have to

anyhow, the Font was that kind. She
just absorbed her knowledge at sea-and
let me tell you right here:
When you have to sit in steamer
chair beside a cherished friend who for
sakes you for a crochet bag: who sits for
hours and days with a steel hook and q
white thread. making a thing that starts
with rose and lattices out to a drawing
String-and then turns in and perpetrates
seventeen balls. and stuffs each with cot
ton like dentist fills a tooth-and passes
each individual ball on to you to note
how hard it is and how round ii is, and
how smooth it is. And you have to tell
seventeen separate fibs and try to look
pleasant about it-and when she tells you,
as a great secret, that she means to
make you one as Christmas gift. you
say how lovely that will be-which makes
fib eighteen
Well, there are just two things you can
do: You can either voice a calm, cold
opinion of crochet bags that will put you
in bad with your cherished friend, or you
can constitute yourself an authority on
balls.
And between two evils 1t is always well
to choose the least.
