THE ART OF SELF-SACRI-
Flee.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright, 1914. by Frank Crane.)

SSf-sacrifice is an art. Like the other
arts it has its technique.
There are those who have the gift Of 1t,
as some have the natural bent for music.
These sacrifice themselves gracefully.
Most of us fear to be imposed upon.
The self-sacrificer does not mind. He en-
joys ministering to your comfort: If you
take advantage of his disposition he
seems to enjoy it still more.
All of US sacrifice ourselves a great
deal: in the intercourse with our fam
lily and our friends we are compelled to-
but for the most part we do 1t awk-
wardly.
The man gives up his own desired
amusements for his wife's sake and his
childrens: but he talks about 1t, re-
minds you of it continually. and spoils it.
The woman devotes her time to her
household. denies herself a hundred lib
critics. but grows eloquent in her self
pity: her beneficiaries secretly pray that
she be less noble and more agreeable.
So a deal of so-called acts Of self
sacrifice are commissions of egotism.
II you have not the natural instinct
you must all the more carefully study the The
your left hand not know what your
right hand doeth. The least self-con-
sciousness. the least self-advertisement,
the least manifestation Of expecting
praise, is a fly in the ointment.
There are those who yield their seat
to a lady in a street car, or rise and
present their chair in drawing room.
with an air that makes YOU uncomfort-
able.
There are persons who agree to your
opinion in a way that is half insult
To pay the bill for party in a res
taurant. and to do it in such way as
shall leave a pleasing impression upon all,
requires not a little skill.
40 complain that one does not appre-
ciate what you do, to say that you are
glad to sacrifice yourself If the recipients
your favor are only grateful: shows
that you do not understand the first
principles of the matter.
Self-sacrif1ce must be made in sim
plicity, with ease. concealing the cost.
1t must be with utter self-effacement.
If you cannot do that, if you must
wish for return, for gratitude, for
thanks, and to have your little vanity
line. Do not NEEDLE with an art for
which you have no taste nor ability.
To sacrifice your beliefs. your Unborn
tastes and the essentials of your per-
sonality. even for one you love, Is a mis-
take. II she does not love those very
things about you. she does not love you
at all, only her own notions.
The finest favored self-sacrifice is a
kind Of Indulgence: the pleasure you
give to another appeals more to you than
any pleasure you might secure for your
self.
Thus the act Of sacrifice on your part
pleases me most when l see that you
most please yourself.
The highest type of gentleman or lady
is one who is vtrtuoso in self-con-
quest, one in whom giving pleasure to
others is keener than getting pleasure
for self.
Self-sacrifice is an art; but it is the
most interesting and profitable of all
arts, and adds most to the joy of living
when it Is well done.

TO HONOR NEW JERSEY NEGRO.
Whose Discharge Was in Washing
toms Handwriting.
From the Newark News.

From the Newark news.
The colored women of Princeton are
entitled to much credit for their patriotic
efforts to erect a tablet to the memory
of Oliver Cromwell. This is not the
Cromwell of English history. but the
humber Cromwell. a negro, who fought
in the war of the revolution. His habitat
was in Mercer and Burlington counties;
he fought in the battles Of Trenton,
Princeton and Monmouth and in the pic
ture, THE Passing Of Washington"
hanging in the old barracks in Trenton.
is the figure of a black man on horse
back, supposed to be Oliver Cromwell.
His discharge from the army was in
Washington's own handwriting. and for
several years i.v ...-lved a pension. His
death occurred in 1853. but as yet no stone
marks his grave. Here,i indeed, is a 'Crom-
well guiltless of his countrys blood" not
only, but one who imperiled his life and
gave his best services to Washington and
the new nation that did but little for
him or his race until ten years after
his death. 1t is eminently proper that tie
memory of this humble man should be
respected. and that his quiet resting
place, hitherto unmarked. should bear an
appropriate tribute to his patriotic worth.

Ready Money

James Montgomery's spirited farce.
Ready Money" which attained an eight
month run atthe Maxine Elliot The
alter, in New YORK, and a run of similar
duration at the New Theater, in London.
will be the offering Of the Poll Players
next week. 1t is a comedy of bluff. -
aiming to prove that one need only ap-
pear to have money in order to get it.
The hero In Ready Money" merely
shows twenty thousand dollars In coun-
terfeit bills to men and women whom he
wishes to impress with his prosperity.
The sight of this wealth imbues conf
dence in his associates, and he is flooded
with subscriptions for stock in the mine
he is promotoing. A charming love story
runs through the farce. but its chief ap-
peal lies in it's witty dialogue and its
clever portrayal of the weaknesses and
foibles of human nature.
Richard Butler will be seen as Stephen
Baird, the mine promoter, and Miss
Jewell as Grace Tyler. his inspiration.
