Oh fife, fie on any other subject l shall be delighted, charmed to converse with you; but l owe il 10 my character not to pursue thls topic for another moment" He kissed his delicate hand gracefully as a token of dismissal, and the man, giv- ing Sir John one look, withdrew

 He listened the next day to the city clocks booming out the hour of noon When they had ceased he knew that Hugh was dead. He went abroad that evening, the same polished gentleman that he always had been unruffled geniGl, smiling.
 He remained unrufled even when he learned that Edward Chester had mar ried Emma iIaredale with the free and glad permission of her uncle, who had come 10 know and respect the young man so well that 1t broke down his ha- tred of the Chester race
 ''I have lived a mistaken life" said
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-02-11

@IR JOHN CHESTER was well past
 50 but age sat beautifully on him. N His face, always calm and pleas ant, was quite juvenile in it's bloom and clearness. A constant, gracious smile showed white well ordered teeth. The daintiest of lace ruffles fell over delicate hands, tended as scrupulously as a beau- tvs. There were on his serene age no marks of age or passion, envy, hate or discontent.
 Nobody ever saw. his graceful, slender body attired in anything except the height of fashion, from his laced hat to his sword. He was as dainty in the pri- vaoy of, his bed Hchamber in public. Silks and lowered brocades wrapped him round in slumber; and if Sir John had been haed suddenly from bed, he would have appeared smiling and perfect.
 No man knew so well as he tl'at thoughtfuness and passion beget wrinK- les No one knew so well as he that it is more becoming to bless a man than to curse him. No man knew so well as he that the finest code of mortality in the world, the most elevated thoughts, and the most gentlemanly sentiments were those expressed by that writer who should eyer be England's pride-my Lord Chesterfield Schooling himself accord ing to the precepts laid down by that profound and perfect gentleman, Sir John Chester never was guilty of an ungentle- manly action
 Unhappily, Sir John suffered sad dis appointment in his son Edward. After Lady Chester's death, the son had been sent away to be educated at a distance, because boy hardly is the sort of thing that a gentleman can have about hiIl. He had been educated carefully that he might do full credit to Sir John; and his fathcr had every reason to believe that his training had been such as to bring out in him the same qualities of mind ,and heart that he possessed in such full measure himself.
 ] But Edward betrayed a discouraging, not to say pebeian, weakness for all those characteristics and impulses that are calculated to. shock a gentleman whose rules of life are those of my Lord Chesterfield Edward developed that form of rudeness which common persons call frankness and candor. He had a crude habit of associating with people
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-02-11

A dominant note in every novel of Charles Dickens, the note that makes mankind love him almost as much as he is loved for humor is his noble hatred ot all forms of eruelty-the cruelty of greedy ignorance in Squeers; the cruelty of selfshness and hypocrisy in Peeksniff; the cruelty of avariee in Ralph Nickleby and Jonas Chuzzlewlt; the cruelty of self love and pride in Steerforth; the cruelty of obstinacy in MT. Donlbey; the cruelty of false shame in Pip;' the cruelty of false mission and purpose in Mrs. Clenman and Thomas Gradgrind.
 It is in keeping with his warm, gener- ous nature that he should assail these cruelties more vehemently than those cruelties that spring up in creatures dis torted by unhappy birth and conditions. Thus, though he depicts Bill Silles as the brute that he is, a brute without a single better impulse, without a qualifying trait, Dickens spirit does not rise against him as jt does when he tells of Peclsniff, the educated man. or when he depicts the cruelty, conscious or unconscious. of the other characters just named. Even in Cuip, that nightmare study of malicious, perneating, complete cruelty. he draws a creature of mere animal cruelty. His gorge does not rise against Qulp.
 But in Sir John Chester of "Barnaby Rndge," Dickens paints the most cruel of those cruel types that he truly hates Sir John, talented, wise, rich, blessed by birth and breeding. is his greatest picture of cruelty, because it is a cruelty born and nutured in an intelligent mind. Sprneing up at first merely as an incl dental thing in life of cold, egotistical calculation. it so grows within it's posses sor that at last he has as much pleasure in being cruel as he has in his pursuit of other pleasures.
 Sir John Chesters treatment of Hugh may seem to make him, at first sight, an incredible monster of eruelty-but the sta tistics of the founding asylums of earth will answer that he is no monster, or, if he is, that there have been, and arc many hundred thousands of monsters like him among men,
