The Vengeance of the Stupid
BY DR.. Frank Crane
VIZ 1T has been defined as the art Of get

VIZ 1T has been defined as the art of get
w ting oneself disiked.
And certain it is that there is moth
ing more isolating than reputation for say
ing pointed things.
We admire clever people, but we are afraid
Of them.
1 do not deny that there is a distinct
pleasure in making bright remarks; the
laughter of the hearers is sweet to the soul;
the admfring chances 1atter ones seIf-es-
TEEN; we at once move into the spotlight; we
become the circles \center, but it is all
bought at great priCe-the price Of fellow
ship.
The sense of power over ones fellows is
always sweet. Few forms Of it are sweeter
than the power to astound them, to make
them laugh.
But we ought not to forget that there is
an edge of bitterness in laughter. There is
no poison like the leayings of railery
For this reason the last days of a great
wit are likely to be wretched. He finds
himself stunned. He sees with amazement
that the dull man is closing his career sur
rounded by loving friends. He cannot I'M
derstand it.
The reason is simple. The clever man has
burned the commoner, nearer goods of love
and companionship on the akar fires of
praise.
l knew preacher who was the wittfest
man in town. He was sought for all festaI
occasions; his eXtempOraneous talks made
the DdHqueIeTS roar with Sl6e, HIS bon mOtS
were quoted. He was praised admired Then
a little difficulty arose in his church and he
was astounded and cha9rined to find the
number and yigor of his enemies They
arose as one man, also as one woman and
drove him from his pulpit. I was sorry for
him, for he really was a good fellow Only
he had paid too dearly for his whistle
Usually the habit Of saying things is the
cover of a sensitive nature. Dull, tough
people do not care to be brilliant. It is the
tender, quiyering heart that seeks to disguise
its weakness with a hot discharge of pointed
arrows.
1t is rare to find a woman with a clever
tongue who is generally liked.
We don't all admire commonplace minds
Alas. we love them
That is why the bright girl, quick at re-
partee, sparkling with starred speech, is
passed by, and the young man chooses for a
bride the pudding-cheeked and pudding
minded miss, who can only shipper and cling.
If one is unfortunately gifted with mental
brilliancy, therefore, one ought to study to
say no witty thing that may rankIe
For the vengeance of the stupid is terrible
You may sin before them and they NAV
forgive you; you may deceive them and they
may pardon you; but the lance thrust of a
smile they will not forgive nor forget; if you
laugh at them or make others laugh at them
that is the objectionable sin.
And the wrath Of the dull is as a consum-
Ing fire.

France, "but wit does not give heart"

THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. w. H. FELTON,

Harry Thaw, with the cave mans instincts,
shot down Stanford White in one Of the
most noted roof garden cafes in New York
City. The multitude it done
The whole story went into the papers. The
shameless woman helped to spread it abroad
It flung a searchlight into the hidden places
of high society, and everything was told
without reserve-nasty, also raw!
The poor boy told Of his grievance, and
his poor mother had to wake up to his con-
ditiOn, the victim of a scarlet woman who
had made him believe she had been outra-
geOusly manhandled by beast in decent at
tire and in high life; and in a passion Of
rage he had shot the seducer who had vic
timized a helpless young girl etc.
The trial was the topic Of the newspap ers
To save him from the electric chair they had
to pronounce him insane-the usual recourse
when there is a flood Of money to hire legal
counseI-to shirk execution because of
murder
- A long time has passed since Harry Thaw
went to the criminal insane asylum. Evelyn
Nesbit bore a child, who is now nearly
grown, which she testified was a Thaw, and
not a White. With accustomed audacity she
was the chief figure in Thaw's latest attempt
to secure his liberty. She and the son of
Harry Thaw, if she has told the truth, are
being pictured in newspaperdom. She evi-
IDENTIFY expects to handle some of the Thaw
millions as guardian of her son. If there
was no Thaw money to be inherited, would
mother of her own victim, the long-suffering
mother Of the man who shot down Stanford
White, egged by this courtesan who was
anybody's mistress so long as the money was
plentiful?
If it should prove an object lesson to hun
dreds Of young men and women who are
plunging ahead into similar difficulties the
public could patiently submit to this nasty
publicity, for the time being, Of the often
told story of Harry Thaw, and the fidelity OF
his long-suffering mother.
But it is also we'll to recoIlect that the
tendency of this age is toward sexual excite
ment and the flame is fed by such fuel as
the story of Harry Thaw and the woman
(Who had virtually destroyed the lives of
two men who became enamoured with her
face and fgure) is furnishing to countless
readers.
She may be an affectionate mother to her
own child, but what the boy has inherited
from her is more likely to be his bane rather
than help. AS it looks to outsiders, she is
figuring on getting a share of Harry Thaw's
inheritance, by hook or crook, and without
any sense Of shame she puts herself in front
to continue him as an inmate Of the insane
asylum.
Theer should be also a place provided
where scarlet women might be detained to
save other silly men from such vamp cattle

THE STORY OF HARRY THAW


tn HE Thaws were, and are still, very rich
people in Pittsburg, Pa They were an
- ambitious family because of their
wealth, and the sort of wealth that average
people admire and worship. IF | recollect
Alright, one daughter married a nObleman,
and doubtless her share of the ThaW mil
lions made the match. There was a young
boy named Harry. Harry would doubtless
have. been able to make himself financier,
like his dead father, if the Tbaw millions
had not made a fool of him.
Harry ThaW went &the pace. His adOring
mother couldn't refuse him what he wanted.
He had the money and he lavished it until
he got what he was after. Then he turned
attention to other things he decided he
wanted The very fact of possession les
sened their previous value when once OBJ
tanned.
This is the inevitable result Of spendthrift
money. The chasers want things until they
get them, then it is tame affair. The chase
was the vital part Of the business-the snap
in the affair
In the great city Of New York all sorts of
people congregate. There was a very hand
some Vamp young woman known as Evelyn
Nesbit. The god she worshiped was money
and what money brings to such butterflies.
Her beauty was her bane. She had at
tracted the attention of a very prominent
architect. He had a family and lived a
double life. Her desire for luxury and dress
and what is Uppermost in the minds of such
young women led her to sell her pearl Of
great price, namely, her virtue, to the man
who lusted after such young women with
beauty. She became the plaything of the
man who was obsessed with her physical
attractions and who was untrue to his own
domestic ties.
But such yamp women are also rowing in
their instincts and habits. She encountered
the silly, youthful Harry Thaw, and laid in
watt for the foolish creature-she wanted
him. He spent any amount of money on the
woman.
1t so happened that the really big man.
who was at heart a bad man, crossed the
path of the vamp and Harry Thaw once too
often The latter was informed of the hold
that Stanford White had on this woman of
the street, and, strange to tell, this crafty
girl concluded to select a new affinity with
coolies of money and wrench herself loose
from the yoke of the architect, and to make
this possible, and as she hoped, easy she
related to ThaW the story Of her concubnage
with Stanford White. She fed him UP on
the tyrannical conduct Of the man who Law
ished money on her, but claimed to own her
body, soul and being. To make long story
short she was trying to break with the older
HbeTine to get luxury and money from a
young fool more to her notion, and more
lavish with his inherited fortune.

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY

There came then his brethren and his
mother, and, standing Without, sent unto
him, calling him. And the multitude sat
about him, and they said unto him, "Be-
hold, thy mother and thy brethren with
out seek for thee. And he answered them
saying, "Who is my mother, or my breth-
ren~ And he looked round about on
them Who sat about him, and said, "Be-
hold, my mother and my brethren! For
whosoeper shall do the Mill of God, the
same is my brother, and my sister, and
mother" -Mark 5:31-35.

! Our Friend Robin Redbreast

~ GOD citizens all, and nature lovers es-
| pecially, should cooperate to protect
the robins, bluebirds and other feath-
cred friends of man that now are migrating
northward Protection is soreIy needed.
Numerous complaints reach The Journal
touching the destruction of these valuable
BIRDS which it is illegal to kill but hun
dreds of which, nevertheless, die at the
hands of persons who are either grossly ig-
norant or else maliciously defiant Of the law.
All such discovered cases should be report
ed and be vigorously prosecuted.
This is first of all the duty Of game war
around and urgently needed in time when
myrads of useful as we'll as beautiful birds
are greeting us in fight, or tarrying with us
till warmer days. In the nature Of things,
however, the wardens alone, yigilant as
they may be, cannot control an evil which
may break forth at any hour in any one
of ten thousand different places. The au-
thorities must depend largely on public CO.
operation. Their readiest and most efficient
aids are, of course, the Boy Scouts, who
know the exceeding worth of birds and are
ever alert to safeguard them against the
ruthless. But there is also limit to what
the Scouts can do. The help of every school
child of every home owner, of every good
neighbor and good citizen is needed.
The chief offenders, it seems, are boys with
rifles or air guns, and occasionally men, who
have no more sense of what is right and fit
than to shoot, for sheer love Of killing, birds
whose species are worth millions of dollars
to Georgia's farm interests let alone the de-
light they give to all with eyes and ears
for beauty. These violators Of the law are
due no tolerance but in every community
and every neighborhood should be regarded
as the enemies Of the commonwealth.
In "PiIgrims Progress" we read; "Then
as they were coming in from abroad, they
espied a little Robin with great Spider in
his mouth So the Interpreter said, Look
here' So they looked, and Mercy wondered.
But Christana said, What a disparagement
is it to such little pretty bird as the Robin
red-breast is he being also a bird above
many that loveth to maintain kind Of SO
ciableness with man. I had thought they
had lived upon crumbs Of bread, upon
other such harmless matter" Throughout
the two and half centuries since Bunyan
wrote, Robin-red-breast has been doing his
duty against mans many -millioned insect
foes Delicate minded Christiana, If she
were looking on today, would throw him
fresh handfuls of crumbs and count 1t, not
to his disparagement, but to his glory that
he leaves the world with fewer and fewer
spiders But as for those enlarged human
insects who prowl about gardens and groves
and woodlands, killing birds that befriend
mankind beyond all measure, these she
would doom to be lodged forever and
day in the dungeon of the Giant Despair. ,
