Conscience or Cold Feet.

one of the things that people used to
write about, and occasionally read about,
was conscience 1t was thought that
there was something very fine about
conscience, something SO fine that,
although many possessed 1t, few un-
ledstood it, and poets Were privi-
legged to say anything they chose to say
about it. AT that time only such eharac-
ters as Richard III and Lady Macbeth,
who had no conscience at all, claimed to
know all about it.
Today it appears that conscience is not
in such general use, and that it has,
lost interest even to authors. The truth
is that conscience has degenerated into
plain cold feet" and, of course. nobody
has anything fine to say about cold feet
When you We're little boy or a little
girl, and wanted to take an apple from
the corner fruit stand, was it conscience
or cold feet that made you hesitate Was
it something that hurt you inside or were

serenely through the cafe of the Plaza
to the door of the kitchen, where he

stand. The head cook, who has been
instructed not TO forget Otello under
penalty of losing his place, prepares a
tasty feast out of scraps of meat, veg
etables and other delicacies. wrap

about with stout cord.
He gives it to Otello, who takes the
knotted cord carefully in his mouth
and ambles back to the fire house. In
front of the open door he hats before
the fireman on duty and lays the pack
age at his feet. The fireman unwraps
1t and spreads the paper and its con-
tents out on the sidewalk. But not
even then does Otello start to devour
the feast. He did once on time and
