May we not say, moreover, while so
many Of our late heroes have worked
rather as revolutionary men, that
nevertheless every great man. every
genuine man, Is by the nature Of him
son Of order, not of disorder? 1t
is tragic position for true man to
work In revolutions. He seems an
anarchist, and indeed painful ele-
ment of anarchy does encounter him
at every step-him to whose whole
soul anarchy Is hostile. hateful. His
mission Is order; every mans Is. He
is here to make what was disorderly,
chaotic, into a thing ruled, regular. He
Is the missionary of order, Is not all
work of man in this world a making
OF order? The carpenter finds rough
trees; shapes them, constrains them
into square fitness, into purpose and
use. We are all born enemies of
disorder; 1t Is tragical for us all TO
be concerned In image breaking and
down pulling; for the great man.

you, without an instants hesitation,
just what the action of black cat
might mean, what the finding OF a
four-leaf clover, under certain condi-
lions, signifies; just how and when
horoscope should be cast. But the
other night he came cropper. After
hard days work he had tumbled into
bed, only to have his rest disturbed
by most distressing nightmare, the
salient feature of which was the pic
ture of his handsome suit of black and
gray hair having departed, leaving him
nearly as bald as the front-row
patrons Of the od-time burlesque
shows. Did he get up in the morn
ing and consult one Of the dream
hooks that occupy prominent place
in his library? He did not He hur-
riedly dressed, bolted his breakfast
