Alternate and Proxy-Holder Insist on
Voting While Delegate Himself
10 Present.

A southern black-county convention
was in progress, and the hall was
crowded. Among rows upon rows of
the dusky sons of toll an occasional
white delegate stood out like flake
of snow on coal car.
The chairman was calling the roll.
One by one the delegates answered
yea or nay till the name of James
Levy was called. Up jumped burly
negro, as black as ink Use his proxy,
and I votes yea" From across the
hall came another voice: "Mr. Cheer
man, Mr.. Cheerman, Use his alternate,
an I votes nay"
Use de gem imam entitled to dis var
vote, and it's yea"
Don you listen to his talk, Mr..
Cheerman. De alternate's got de say
so, an de vote is nay"
Back and forward, forward and back,
the alternate and proxy of James Levy
wrangled, while the chairman vainly
pounded for silence. A third man in
the hall stood up. and endeavored to
make himself heard above the tumultu-
GUS voting. The chairman caught sight
Of him, and leaping to his feet, he
shouted above the din:
Mr.. Proxy an Mr.. Alternate, If you

A CASE OF NERVES?
Is Crossness a Mood or
Inherent In Just Things?.

Every woman, young and old, knows
what it is to have cross days-days
when, from the rising up of the sun to
the going down of the same, every
mortal thing seems to go wrong, no
matter how hard one tries to have
them go right. For that matter, one
always does try harder on such days
than on the happy go lucky ones when
life flows on smoothly and harmonious
ly, like "a grand, sweet song" Good
ness knows, there is enough conscien-
tious effort wasted on a single cross
day to balance half a year of ordinary
days.
Why is this? Is crossness a disor-
dered state of the mind or an over
wrought condition of the nerves or
simply the reflection of an inexplicable
but unanimous "croSsedneSS" on the
part of things in general? And if it
be any or all of these is there any way
of preventing or overcoming it,
Crossness. like most other conditions
Of life. is the inevitable effect of per-
fectly natural cause Good humor, like
fine weather, cannot possibly last for
ever. If it could it would inevitably
become an intolerable bore. Being
eternally pleasant and agreeable is all
right theoretically, but it is a terrible
strain on the nerves.
1t is dreadfully wearing, too. on 9th
er people. Did you ever have to live
in the same house with somebody who
was always placid. always even tenn
pered. no matter who else was wor-
ried and distraught? And were you
not sometimes seized with an unholy
yearning to do something perfectly
awful and fiendish, that you might for
once startle that placid being out of
his or her maddening imperturbility?
