By the Greatest American Humorists THE 1MILLS OF THE GODS By RICHARD S. (JRAVBS v___y When it was first mentioned that the mills of the gods grind slowly I hare no doubt it was true. Every thing was slow in those days. The mills had always been grinding slowly when those words were first written, perhaps as slowly as some of the courts grind at this time, anil there was no reason to believe they would ever Improve. The observer added as a sort of consolation that they grind exceeding ly flue, and let it go at that. Even that Is more than can be said of some courts, to continue the comparison between the mills and the courts. The mills of the gods were very slow at one time. There Is no doubt about it. There was an era when men stalked around covered with ar mor, firm in the belief that they were warriors, and the kind of conversa tion they carried on with each other, if the historical novelists have reported it correctly, wus sufficient provocation for throwing them into the nearest and fastest mill. There was another period when men wore knee trousers and powdered their hair. Those who wore armor and the others who dresed them selves like clowns are all dead now, but they were allowed to live out the usual span of life. At a later time people listened to stump speeches and allowed the speakers to live. Considering some of the speeches history has preserved for us It is almost certain the mills of the gods must have been undergoing re pairs just then. It Is Impossible to doubt that the mills ground slowly after taking one glance Into the past. We may recon cile this condition to the crying need of those days by the reflection that all machinery Is Imperfect at first. If Robert Kulton could come back now and be present at the anniversary celebration he would have to admit that tho steamboats he used to build were dinky. The mills of the gods may not have advanced as rapidly as steamships and automobiles In recent years, but they still are grinding. I think they began to Improve some years ago. I have noticed several of the grists that have been turned out and as far as I could see they were all right. Neither could any complaint be made by a reason able person about the celerity with which the work was done. There was a brass band in a country town a few years ago, the members of --r_ »•— -1 "Practicing In a Room Back of the Livery Stable.” which practiced five nights each week, nnd It will serve as an Illustra tion of the work the mills of the gods have been doing. The practicing was done in a room back of the livery stable. The building had been a corn crib and was open, but the roof was good. The rehearsals were rather publio and this was called to the at tention of the players but they did not care. Tho noise they made would have torn the sides out of any other building, so It did not matter. The Instruments were placed In a large chest nnd left in the building when the hand was not practicing, but It was not often that they were in the chest. One night a fire broke out In the corner of the building where the chest stood, somebody having careless ly poured a lot of coal oil there. Be fore the fire could be quenched the In struments were reduced to blackened and worthless brass. They were a total loss, there being no Insurance. The town never raised enough money to replace the Instruments. Nobody thought of It at the time, but I know now that the grist was turned out by one of the mills of the gods. I wish I knew which mill. There are other grists I would like to take there. Anybody can see that the grist was exceeding fine, and that Is evidence that It was from one of the mills. It may be circumstantial, but still it la evidence. Thoee who have listened to the music of a band hailing from a small town will readily agree with the posi tion I have taken. The fact that about a barrel of coal oil was spilled in the corner of the building may or may not be taken Into consideration. The result Is the same in any event. It Is useless to try to convince me that the mills of the gods do not grind faster now than they used to years ago. The band had been practicing only 30 days. (Copyright, 1909, by W. <3.
