THE HUMAN SIDE * By FRANK COBB. Punsters had called Brainerd the brains of the car aign against Saul ! Jones, the bos6 of i^awrencetown. His cartoons created a nation-wide sensa tion, and did much to turn the tide of public opinion against the man who ' had for so long been supreme in the city. The one which made the sensa tion of the week depicted Jones in con vict garb, ascending the wall of a building marked “Public Efficiency.” , The idea was not startling, but it was the expression on the boss’ face that did the work. And Jones won the election. Four weeks before it occurred Brainerd seemed to lose his grip. True, he drew cartoons as of yore; but they were mild and milk-like in comparison with his vitriolic contributions to the Eagle during preceding issues. After the election It got known that Jones had seen Brainerd at hie house, the day following the appearance of the convict cartoon. The word went round that Brainerd had been “fixed." : He lost his post, of course, and no other newspaper would employ him. That is, with the exception of Jones’ sheet, the Clarion-Democrat. Brainerd refused the offer, pc.cs.ed up, and left Lawrenceiown. I happen to know what occurred, because Brainerd told me. He told me two nights before he left. He had j come to ask the loan of $200 to take I him to Net^ York. He is doing well j there; but that doesn't look ae if he ■ had been paid very much for dropping his attack on Jones, does It? Brainerd was heart and soul in his work. He was all for reform and good government. The night the convict cartoon came out was one of the hap * Never Dreamed to See the Haggard Looking Man Who Stood Before Him. piest of his life. He went home to sleep, after planning a new one that would pulverize all that remained of Jones. He got a telephone message in the morning. “This i6 Saul Joaes, Mr. Brainerd," said the voice. "I want to see you very much. Can you come to my house before going on to your office?*’ If Brainerd had been wise he would have declined. But he was human enough to enjoy the anticipation of meeting Jones face to face, and refus ing the bribe which he had no doubt Jones meant to offer him. Jones had a nice house in a good district, and Brainerd was surprised at the good taste it 6howed inside. He was more surprised at the quiet, lady like woman who came in to him as he waited in the library and announced herself as Mrs. Jones. “My husband will be down in a minute,” she said. “I know who you are, Mr. Brainerd, and you can't ex pect me to feel very kindly toward you. However, I suppose you get your living by cartooning your political op ponents. Only, let me tell you that my husband has never done a dishonest thing in the whole course of his life.” With that she flounced out of the room, if such an expression can be | applied to the angry swish of an angry' woman’s gown. Brainerd smiled rather bitterly. “Hiding behind a woman's skirt,” he said to himeelf. “Won’t I trounce him tomorrow!” iiitu juue& m ai uie uwr. Rrainerd had seen the boss at a dis tance. He knew that he was a very ordinary-looking citizen, with a good- i natured aspect and a tendency to avoirdupois. He had never dreamed to see the haggard-looking man who stood before him. "You are Mr. Brainerd?” inquired the boss. "Sit down. I have asked you to come here with reference to your cartoon in yesterday's Eagle.” "Yes." answered Brainerd, think ing that his fun was just going to begin. "How much?" inquired Saul Jones, sinking into a chair and resting his chin on one hand. His searching eyes were fixed penetratingly upon the car- j toonist’s. Brainerd rose up. “I was expecting that question, Mr. Jones,” he answered. ”1 take it that you are offering me a sum of money to cease cartooning you. Let me tell you that I am not to be bought, sir, for all the money in Law rencetown.” How he was enjoying himself! He told me so himself. Everybody likes to play the virtuous man when he has the chance to. As Brainerd was going toward the doer the boss sprang from his chair and caught him by the arm. “I’m not asking you to stop attack ing me,” he said huskily. ‘Tve been attacked pretty well all through my public life, and I have managed to sur vive it. I ask you how ^nuch you will take, Mr. Brainerd, not to betray what vou have discovered? Come, a lump sum—and for the rest you can attack me every minute of your working hours. "Ah. you young men!" he resumed. “It is so easy to crush your enemy, isn't it? But when you have lived as long as I have you will have come to see that magnanimity pays—yea. sir, pays, because you never know what is going to come into your own life, or what you will do under temp tation. Mr. Brainerd. “Yob saw my wife? I sent her in to you, so that you should be able to judge. She knows nothing about it. She thinks I am the best man in the world. And it is thirty years ago— my God! I didn't think anybody would have found that out against me. “I was a young fellow of twenty two. It was my first and only crime. I put my employer's name on a check They gave me six months in state's prison for it. And I escaped—like a fool, I escaped, wearing the stripes, too, and I had only three months to serve. I have been a harried and hounded man all my life in conse quence.” The boss sunk his head upon his hands, and Brainerd. amazed at this confession, stood still, not knowing what to do. It was quite a few mi nutes before he realized what had happened. Jones had connected the cartoon with the secret in his past life, and he read in it a threat of ex posure which Brainerd had never meant, and for a crime of which the artist had been entirely ignorant. "Well?" asked the boss, raising his head. "Are you going to break up > my home and ruin my life, young man. to gratify your hate: or are you going to let bygones be bygones and take $5,000?" That was where Brainerd did the right thing. If he had told Jones that he had not known about that episode, he would have left the man crushed and humiliated by his folly in betray ing it. He stretched his hand out and grasped the boss’. “Mr. Jones," he said, “I was a young fool and you have taught me a much needed lesson. There is no question of money—and the "Eagle" will never again publish a cartoon like the “Con j vict." rvv l uts » ui u. “You see,” Brainerd explained to ; me afterward. “I was really quite cap , able of doing such a thing with de- ! liberate design, if I had known. But nobody knew, and the man had been the victim of his own conscience. And after I had seen him in his home, and learned that all men are made more or less out of the same clay—why. i the thing came home to me. And ! somehow I could never put my heart into my work again. The managing editor thought I had been ‘fixed.’ So i do the public, I guess. I’m going to New York—and. I say, I want you to let me have a couple of hundred to keep things going till I get started.” (Copyright. 1914. by IV. G. Chapman.) EARLY AGES OF LEARNING Progress Throughout the Centuries Has Been of Consistent if Not Rapid Growth. About 650 B. C. there arose Thales who. by his wide experience and the persistent enthusiaEin with which he carried on investigation, earned the title of "father of science.” And shortly after him, Anaximander, by committing his knowledge to writing, | brought into existence the first sci entific manuscript. The sixth cen tury, like the seventh, was still a pe- ; riod of origins. It saw the physical researches of Pythagoras, and the his torical studies of Hecataeus. In the fifth century. Greek learning reached its climax. This age was resplen dent with the names of Thucydides, who wrote history with critical care: of Heraclitus, who conceived of a uni versal reign of law. and of Hippo crates. the "father of medicine.” Its greatest character was Socrates, the barefooted qaestioning sage of the market places of Athens. With ever burning enthusiasm for truth, this i great teacher attempted, by quiet and candid debate, to aid _ men to make their concepts clear, and to give words definite meanings. trusting that through the correct use of the rea son they would arrive at a recognition of superiority of right actions. The next century was both an advance and a decline. It comprised the work of Plato and Aristotle; the one elabo rating the concepts of Socrates with poetic power, the other systematizing knowledge in truly scientific form. But in this age the demand for brilliant : superficial learning as an asset for climbers, led to the rise of the Soph j ists. These popular teachers, by their careless sweeping generaliza- ! tions and their rhetorical embejlish- ; ment.s, turned the Greek mind aside ' from the simple pursuit of truth, and entangled it in unprofitable meta physical speculation. — Engineering Magazine.

HYPNOTISM FOR THE AILING Famous French Physician Claims to Be Able So to Cure Many of the Ills of Mankind. Dr. Bertillon of Paris asserts that psychotherapia, or soul-culture, is the medicine of the future. He does not put his patients into hypnotic trances, but places than in an environment which creates an ap petite for sleep. He invites them to repose on their beds and think of nothing. Then he leaves them, and i they gradually succumb to the '•tick tack” of a metronome. When a patient is in a hypnotic slumber, if it is desired that he shall be cured of a tendency to excessive indulgence in alcohol, the psychother apist suggests to him that he cannot raise a glass of absinthe to his lips, and repeats the suggestion until the prohibition is so engraved upon the brain that if the patient would he could not do so. Dr. Bertillon is frequently consulted by those who have had unhappy love affairs, and ft is said that through hyp notism they obtain release from their unrequited passion. Nature's Wonders.

The vicar of an English mining vil lage sent a pair of boots to the cob bler's for repairs, but Bill, who had been imbibing rather freely, felt no inclination for work, so ihe boots w ere not touched that day. Next morning Ins'nerves were rather shaky and he longed for "a hair of the dog that bit him.” His own boots were rather dir ty, so he thought there was no harm in putting on the parson's, which he accordingly did, and turned off into the village pub. for a big “reviver." He had not gone very far when whom did he meet but the vicar, who Said: “I sent my boots down for repairs, William. Are you not finished with them yet?" “Wey, mistor,” answered Bill, calm ly, “they're not mended yit, but they're on t>« road.” In Difficulty. A newly-married young woman had a gas cooker fixed in her kitchen. The gas company sent her a card of rules, with instructions to study them well, and what she couldn't understand they would explain to her. Imagine the clerk’s surprise the next morning when he read the following note: “Dear Sir—I can understand all the rules except the one at the bottom of the card— 'See other side.’ It's im passible to see the other side: the man has fixed it against the wall.” Horn Jewelry.

We do not ask you to do our experimenting During the twenty-one years in which we have been bnilding motor cars, we have never asked the public to do our experimenting. Every unit of the Haynes car is designed, checked and thoroughly tested before receiving its final O.K. The American Simms Dual High Tension Magneto is positively the most simple dual ignition ever devised. It was recommended by the Haynes engineers after careful speed and compression tests proved beyond doubt that it was unusually efficient and absolutely dependable. The Leece-N’eville Starting and Lighting Separata Unit System was chosen in 1910 because of its high effi ciency and has been u^ed on the Haynes car ever since, although numerous other starting and lighting systems have been tested in our laboratories from time to time. This system is dust-proof and has proven itself 100% effi cient in every i nstance. There is no apparatus, however, on tus America's First Car that has been subjected to a more severe lest than the Vulcan Electric Gear Shift. This device is even a greater improvement than the starting and lighting system, because it not only sim plifies the control but positively prevents stripping of gears. While the electric gear shift is a great invention, it is not radically new, being just a natural development of the electro-magnet, which has been in use since 1820. The same principle Is used by steel companies to lift tons and tons of metal; the electric railways adopted it long ago to shift switches automatically, .and the little hammer that strikes the bell in your telephone is actuated by the im pulse of a similar magnet. The Haynes car is not an experiment. It represents the height 'of refinement, convenience and reliability in motor car design. It's the year-ahead car.
