THE POINT OF VIEW

nR. ANNA SHAW, president of the Ma
- tional Suffrage Association addressed
gathering of New York's fashionable women
at the Fifth-ave. home of rich suffragist.
AT the close of the meeting, in response to
DR.. Shaw's invitation to answer any ques-
tions, a wife of one of the big corporation
presidents said, "I think it would be all right
to give the ballot to us who are intelligent
and would know how to use it; but what
of that great army of uneducated East Side
women?"
A few nights later DR.. Shaw was address
ing a meeting of tenement house women at
an East Side settlement. Nearly all were
accompanied by babies and young children.
When DR.. Shaw finally asked for questions,
it seemed as though all the women and chill
dren at once raised their hands
All appeared to be of one mind in asking
questions. at would be all right to give us

Other voices came to him on the air of
stray passersby,-a laugh, a whistling boy or
man, the prattle of child toddling between
its proud parents, a hand in each of theirs,
the singing of a bird, rejoicing in the sun
light, the ringing of bells for late church
goers, all one tremendous chorus of Joy and
peace.

All that was in him cried out and commanded

of memory, and
his heart swelling within him, a horrible
weight lifted from his shoulders. Yes, it was
over, and he was going back.
Two men passed by him, one talking in
loud and positive tone. "My dear fellow.

laugh This was illustrated in a recent Incl
dent that took place on the evening of one
of our important premleres.
The occasion was the revival OF an old
favorite, and the important roles in the piece
were being interpreted by an all-star cast,
comprising some of the most prominent
actors in the country. Among these was an
actress who first rose to prominence IN the
West. She is an artist of great ability, and
came East with splendid record and a Won
derful reputation behind her Unfortunately
she has never had the fullest opportunity to
show Eastern audiences the highest reaches
OF her art, and so her reputation has re-
manned greater, perhaps, in the West than 1t
is in the East. Playing opposite her was an
authoritative actor of the modern school,
brainv, studiouS man who represents the
best in his art today.
Everything went well in the first act. In
the second. however, there was a passage of
unusual difficulty between these two players.
Now, whether it was from nervousness or
from stage fright or from fatigue. no one
could say, for the part had been thoroughly
rchearsed; but in this passage the actress
wabbled, and her wabbly acting threw the
Best in His Art man out.
There was stormy scene when the cur
tain went down. The authoritative actor

IN THE BALANCE

lace had been the last man seen with him,
and in violent alteration.
Time had given him his proper balance,
and wife and child his happiness. Success
had done the rest.
One day, when glancing over a newspaper
at his office, an item headed X had drawn
his attention, and he read of the illness of
James Wallace in the penitentiary of that
State, under life sentence for the murder of
Sydney Styles.
THERE had been short, fierce struggle.
: Now he was here to pay, and pay hard,
his debt to the man punished for him. And
he came to find the other gone-to life eter
nal, He could do nothing for him now.
Why not go back? Yes, why not?
He raised his head from his hands and
looked about him. The church was deserted.
Before the altar burned a solitary lamp
watching He shuddered, reused himself,
rose, and went out
As he stepped into the morning sunlight
the fresh air touched his face. 1t was burn
ing hot.
Gods. how bright the world looked! How
good life seemed. Life! That was all he
wanted-life and her and the boy To leave
them all and die-cold, silent alone? He
STuOQt1tQ dSdl1l dIll WdlhtU OIL
But what if they would not condemn him
to death? What if, instead of life, he should
be compelled to give his liberty only-only!
As if it was not more than life itself! What
would life be without it? Days-hundreds
of days-thousands of days-in which to
think, to think! Nothing to do but think;
for no matter what else he might do, he
must always think. How horrible thought
would become. To hunger and regret and
long for liberty and her or-death! Surely
God would take pity on him and deprive him
of life or reason after time. But when one
longs to lose it, the thread of life becomes
chain.
Why need it all be now? What was the
use? Why not go back to her?
But what of the memory of this man with
a stain upon it? Yet were not liberty and
love more to him than a cleared memory to
a dead man2 But what of the wife and
children with the husband and fathers stain
upon them? Still he could not give them
back husband and father, as he had come
to do. That was no fault of his. He could
however, give them back good name and
sweetened memory, if he would.
Yet, did they need that as much as she
and the boy needed him, living, loving, and
beloved2 Who would watch over them?
Who would protect themo From the very
fact that James Wallace was taken instead
of himself, and that he had returned only to
find him dead-was it not proof that he,
Thomas Wright, was more needed on earth
than the other, and that Providence had
taken the matter in hand? Perhaps he was
destined to do some great good, to prevent
a huge disaster?
He paused at the corner and looked up at
the house where his steps had been irresist-
IDLY led. The shades were drawn. There
was Grape on the door. A voice seemed to
come from it, addressing him, "The only
disaster you can prevent. the only good that
