WHY WRITE OF THE PERFECT?

book reviewer discussing the writings of Maxim
Gorky makes the comparison between two bushes,
one healthy and beautiful the other stricken with
disease and asks: Would any good purpose to
refer persistently to the roseDush in decay" He
answers ut would not" He makes the comparison be-
Gory devotes his fine talents to descriptions of the
under fe the misery and the wrechedness Because he
please of humanity This is the diseased rosebush the
reviewer speaks Of 1t strikes us the question might be
reversed and be asked why write persstently of the
perfect rosebush? We add nothing to its beauty or
to its perfectonby telling of it. On the other hand the
story of the diseased bush calls attention the fact that
something should be done to better it's condition and
make it. too, perfect BUSH There is beauty and per-
fecon to degree in lfe and these are admirable but
why write persistenty about them? They need nothing
There is also misery, ugness, disease want hunger
dtons that will not permit the rosehush bear beautiful
blooms to attract the eye with it's pleasing coors Why
not bring these conditions persisteny before the public
in order that something may be done to better them?
Gorky writes of these things because he is pleased
with hem because he likes to rye pictures of want
and degradation but to call attention to them so that all
the roSebushes of the human family may be made more
perfect and the condition causing disease and decay be
removed The perfect bush needs nothing the imperfect
one everything There will be diseased human bushes
just there will real ones perhaps foverer but that
should hide the fact and dull consciences
with remembering only the perfect and the beautiful on
the principal advocated by this reviewer the press
should print nothing of the terrible conditions in America
because in other countries conditions perfect 1t
should not mention the unspeakabe atrocities of the
Germans in France and Belgium, because other armies
humane and conditions under their control
much better 1t is the bad conditions, the evils the
wrongs of the world that should be written of perssten
and in following this line Gorky is best serving humanity

Saturday she made speech verbal with patriotism and
at the time vocal with bids for the votes of the l.

ton, and that we are engaged in great war in which
must all stand together and work in spirit of self
sacrifice At the time she denounced the lynchng

mands for higher wages and that she would help them get
them if she could The lady from Montana is attempting
the world renowned circus feat announced by Barnum

ROOT AND La Fo11ErrE.

Elihu Root has always represented

the former and supported the latter.
Now, however, the country is at war
and patriots have forgotten partisan
ship. Greater issues are at stake than
local pohtics-the existence Of demoe-
racy, the life of the nation. He who
places petty partisanship above pat
riotism is a mighty poor American.
Root has honorably represented his
country in Russia and shown that be
possesses a high type of patriotism as
well as the sympathy for the oppressed
that distinguishes true democrat. Real
Americans are proud of him. La Fol-
lette has proven that his sympathies are
with the enemies Of his country, with
the autoeracy whose creed is the op-
preston of humanity-and hence is a
fake democrat. Real Americans are
ashamed of him.
As Mr.. Root, the conservative states
man, says: I" AS sure as the sun rises
tomorrow, if this war ends with the
triumph of Germany, our people will
be subject nation of the German rul-
ing nation.' Yet we find Mr.. La Fol-
lette using his position and influence
to oppose needed war measures, to ere

to keep the nation from prosecuting a
vigorous and successful war and doing
what he can to aid and comfort the

CHAPTER CxXvII.

"DOn't try-in words" he said as
the boy left the office.
''Oh, but must thank youl" I ex-
claimed. The touch of the crisp notes
in my hand made me feel that l had
a new lease on life, that now / should
get everything Strengthened out, and
Tom would not be cross with me any
more.
HYou shall, some day." he said with
meaning utterly lost on me at the
time. Then he opened the door and
bowed me out, after saying that he
would come up for a cup of tea the
next afternoon.
How light and gay felt as I hurried
from one place to another and paid the
bills which could not be put off longer
without Tom finding out about them.
Heloise bill was considerably lessened
by the commissions coming to me be-
cause of Vivian Morton s extravagant
orders. But much to my disgust Madame
informed me that she was going to dis
continue her habit of giving commits
sions. That the times were such she
couldn't afford to do so longer.
Ny six hundred dollars was nearly
gone and I had not paid Callman. he
won t dun me, 1 thought, so IN not
try to give him anything, but viii buy
and pay for some things had wanted,
but had not dared purchase, as they
were luxuries could do without. An
elaborate pale silk tea gown, and silk
underwear, ,daiatily trimmed with lace. I
never thought that the tea gown was
inappropriate to wear in our simple
surroundings, nor that it was so perish
able that few times wearing would
finish it. 1t was lovely and becoming.

at least [ was, and Tom appeared to be.
The children were well and I had no
trouble with them. My allowance COW
cred my expenses now that l was
caught up---the how long it would do so
was a question, so there was nothing
for Tom to find fault about, or to cause
us to quarrel.
There was only one thing which an
noyed me as spring drew near and that
was Carol Blackjack IS actions. Several
times he had said things I neither un-
derstood nor liked, and once he had
taken me in his arms and kissed me,
but l had forgiven him when he prom
ised not to do it again, and had flat
tered me by saying 1 looked so sweet
he couldn't resist it.
Neither he nor l had ever mentioned
my debt to him. 1 had gone on buying
what wished at Callman IS and as be-
fore they had sent TIVE bills minus the
dreaded please remit of the other peo-
ple-with whom dealt,-when 1 kept
them waiting.
He spent more and more of his time
with me, and finally Tom noticed and
