ALL HIS GLORY OF THE PAST Actor Who Has Once Lost Favor of the Fickle Public Seldom Able to Regain It. He was gaunt and drawn, a striking contrast to the rather heavy face, the confident air, and the swagger, which had extended even to the buttons on his coat but a few years ago. At that time ranting melodrama was a popu- lar art, the star an elaborately built plece of mechanism, and this man the star’s chief support. His fate was a common one, dra- matically emphasized by his outward appearance. Like a dilapidated sign flapping in the wind, his threadbare “prop” frock coat told the tale of for- mer glory, while the resignation that poured in a flood light of despair from his moist eyes attested that that glory would never be renewed. Like the old profile engine which was wont to thrill the gallery with its factitious bombast, and which now rot- ted, forgotten in the storeroom, this poor human, whose art at its best had been but a “profile” one, was forgot- ten and wasting, waiting like the other to be swept out in the great mass of uselessness, his ephemcral mission ended, his purgatory, nature’s storeroom, a waiting room of poverty and despair, lightened by a rapidly fading ray of mem_ofles—memor!es of a short-lived lime-light popularity. ; Double His Assessment. “syVould you,” inquires the ' Green« verdict, T you were on the Jury, who s suing for damages because he al- leges that he is paying for preaching he can’t hear?” Personally we'd be inclined to ren- der a verdict after the fashion of the immortal Paddy Divver. As the story goes, & loyal henchman of the clan, named Danny, was arrested for an en- thusiastic and successful assault upon an innocent third party. It was just before election, and Danny sent for his leader. The leader heard Danny’s story and went to see Paddy Divver. “Judge,” he sald, “I wish you'd be light on Danny. He's & good fellow, and can help us a lot in #he’election.” “All right!” sald Paddy, “Tll give him thirty days!” “But that will keep him in jail over the election!” the leader protested. “H—," said Paddy, “I mean the plaintiff!” As to Discipline. The young teacher should learn and the older teacher remember that for every teacher that fails on aceount of lax discipline, there is another who fails on_account of over-government. Some teachers assume the same atti: tude as the policeman who found two men talking on the street corner and ordered them to move on, as thers was an ordinance prohibiting crowds gathering on the streets. One man re- monstrated, saylng that two did not make a crowd. “One makes a crowd, - |it 1 say 80,” answered the policeman. i'| A teacher who assumes that whatever he says is law, and it 18 law because he says 1t, wood Journal, “give the deaf man a When the pupils have a definite aim to do and the teacher has a definite alm in what he does, there will be no time nor occasion to “maintain or- der.” It will maintain itself.—Mis souri School Journal. Cautious Through Experience. “Come over and play with my little hoy, sonnie,” called the pleasant-faced new neighbor to the solemn-faced urchin on the fence between the two lots. “Is your little boy sick of anything?” came the child’s earnest question, - “No, indeed, sonny, Why?” “’Cause I've had my tonsils taken out, an’ my adenoids removed, an’ my appendix cut out, an’ I've been vao- cinated an’ serumized for typhoid an’ gpinal meningitis, an’ I've had anti toxin injected, an’ I do hope I won't have to have anything done to me this year, go’s for a little while T can have a'bit o’ fun!” | o Work For Kings. 3 The sphere of foreign affairs is one in which a British monarch, for 211 his complete subordination . to constitue tutional forms, still exercises real pow- er. Unlike the late king, who was his pwn traveling ambassador, and whose personality made him welcome in the capitals of Europe, George V. chooses 'to .work thwough his' ministers, but there i8 every reason to believe that {he monarch’s views will carry weight with the cabinet. Situated as ®m is sbove party, the king may, readily work for international friendship and peace without being accused of .be- traying the country’s interests.
