LAME AND LOVELY
By DR.. Frank Crane

About the best thing you can say of. any
work of man is that it is human.
When you say that you mean that it is
warm, close to the commences of mankind,
not in anywise exotic.
People are queer, always striving to be ex-
elusive, and always hating to be excluded.
We say we love perfection; in reality we
love defects.
Any little sin in man brings us near to
him; we deprecate it, perhaps rebuke him,
but he comes closer.
Who could be neighborly with Venus or
chum with Apollo? Friendship has nowhere
to cling with it's tendrils when it seeks to
embrace perfection.
No; the charm of the son Of woman is that
of which Charles Lamb spoke, in his dream,
when he described one as "he that goeth
lame and lovely"
Principles have wrecked more marriages
than faults, and virtues must be held with
great humility by, human hands.
It is not the most beautiful women that In
spire and keep the greatest devotion Inc
best loved women are rather plain.
And as for men, it is the standing paradox
that strong and fine males do not seem capa-
BILE of arousing in a woman that dognKe al
lection, that passionate championship, which
a Wastrel can kindle.
1t is because what we love is humanity
and not virtue, and il is the flaws that are
The characterizations of Joseph Jefferson
and Sol Smith Russell had this touch. 1t is
the secret of David Warf1eld's appeal.
And in that incompatible play, "Lightnin ~
one of the successes of this season, the same
homely road to the human heart is opened.
The hero, a drunksrd and ne'er-do-well, a.
vain boaster and a shameless prevaricator,
grips your heart and moves you to tears and
smiles as polished paragon could posi-
bly, do.
We all want to be admired and envied,
yet it is only when are forgiven that we
conquer.
Reuben Thomas, of the old Church of
Brooklne, used to say, 81 like to see man
have a few redeeming vices.
-Of course you should never ffb, and never
kiss the girls, and never play hockey, and
always obey your teacher-please do not I'M
derstand me to say that you should ever be
naughty Verify verify, you shall have your
reward
But you will not have everything. There
is certain tender spot of love in the heart
that you can only reach by stumbling his
Go on, and be a success, and you will gain
lot; but theer is also a reward that is re-
served for failures. The weak, of body and of
morals, break our hearts, but they reach our
hearts. They burden US, but they own us.
Frail humanity comes to us with a note of
challenge no angel can utter.

Forward With Business.

Those are seasonable and heartening words
from Secretary Glass, of the Treasury Depart
ment. F'The Government says he, lis in
tensely DESTROYS of seeing formulated a GER
tain policy that business may follow; the
Government wants to see business go for
ward" For many years past business has
moved with hesitant, and sometimes fear
some, mind. The reforms and readjustments
through which it has passed were in the
main essential and ultimately will rebound to
it's freedom and vigor. But the processes or
reconstruction were not infrequently hamper
ing, and in some instances dispiriting. But
now surely, the time has come for full steam
ahead AS Secretary Glass puts it: eve have
a great future Immediately at hand-pros-
perity is before us, and we cannot afford to
stand back" These are the words and the
sentiment of the Government. The days OF

about their food just now than their kultur.

for year or three years or five years in order
that an adequate policy for this great issue
may be worked out, by all means let the
Government do so. Assuredly it is to be
hoped that no long period of suspense will be
needful; and it will not be, we assume, if
Congress buckles to the task with the right
will and in the right spirit. But the
supremacy important thing is that the roads
shall not be thrust thoughtlessly back to the
old regime, which in the judgment of all COM
petent observers, railway executives and out
side students alike, growing more and
more unavoidable, more and more hazardous
for the interests of all concerned.

THE CANDLE AND THE STARS

So let me live that all my days
Run EDWARDS to amending ways,
Since down Times corridors I see
Sure footprint to Eeternity:
Remembering still that all do
And all | am continues through
This worlds dark passage, poorly lit,
Into the shining Infinite.
May all l suffer, 1--we and learn
Light cand es in Gods House to burn
And make little radiance, bright
Even in that undreamed of Light.

Your Income Tax.

Persons subject to the Federal Income Tax
who have not yet made returns, together
with initial payments, should take notice that
Saturday, March the fifteenth, is the last day
the law allows them. Delinquents in this
imperative duty will pay dear; and those MAX
ing false or misleading returns, more dearly
still.
If one is in doubt regarding any material
point, he can obtain competent counsel from
his bank or from the Revenue officials or
from expert business advisers But bear
uppermost in mind the fact that return OF
some kind. accompanied by the first install
ment of the tax, must be in the Collectors
office by Saturday, March the fifteenth.
