MAN

LIKE A MUSIC BOX

II

So Says an Arctic Explorer Who States that When Men Have Played Their Tunes Over and Over Again They Drive People Crazy.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Boiled down, it's all a matter of endurance. A retired arctic explorer has been making some curious remarks supporting this statement recently. Not that, of course, he knew he was supporting it. Unconsciously he, however, "helped some," toward the gayety of newspaper life in Richmond, Indiana. This man said it wasn't the cold that drove this class of adventurers mad. But the continued and undiluted society of their companions. That his fellow conspirators in the near-pole marathon were all "good fellows." That they didn't lack in intelligence.

Or, indeed, versatility, of a sort. "But," says this philosopher, "a man is like a music box. He has a certain number of tunes and after he's played these over and over again his repertoire's exhausted." Not exactly in those words but to that effect. And, with no relief in sight and the thermometer at one or two hundred below zero, the strain is too great. No human can stand it. So they go mad and eat each other's ears. "Did they really eat each other's ears?" asked Marguerite in her most ingenue manner. "Fricaseed 'em!" growled the misanthrope. "Not Dr. Cook's," said Marguerite, "because I saw them last summer at the Chautauqua." "And you'll see them at many another of these out-door vaudevilles," said the misanthrope. "Doctor Cook'll last longer than an arctic winter." "I don't care. I believe everything he said!" cried Marguerite. "I shook hands with him he's a real nice man." "Did you buy his book?" grinned the misanthrope. "Yes, I did and he autographed it!" "Ha! Ha!" sardonically chortled the misanthrope. "I'd hate to have a disposition like yours!" flounced Marguerite. "You'd suffer fewer disappointments if you did," preachily responded the misanthrope. "Now you see I don't expect anything. I always look for the worst. Consequently it's impossible to disappoint me. Sometimes I'm so agreeably surprised that I pretty near enjoy myself," he grinned again. "If I saw you really enjoying yourself I'd fall down in a swoon," said Marguerite. "No, you wouldn't," said the misanthrope. "Why, I would, too!" expostulated Marguerite. "I'd like to know what'd prevent me!" "I would I'd catch you. And then maybe I'd kiss you!" whispered the misanthrope darkly. "Well, of all the fools!" exclaimed Marguerite, making for the door. It's the truth, however, that one of the agencies toward total depravity, murder, divorce, sudden death and all

uncharitableness is constant and forced companionship.

Although the moralists rise up and

howl when you say it, it's what's the matter with marriage.

People get tired to death of each

other.

Nothing is so cloying as the everlasting presence of any other one person. "Variety is the spice of life," is an

old, old saying. But one of those ancient, dog-eared old saws that is based on a well known, but stoutly

denied, truth. Nobody really wants anything they can have. If you could really go down town and buy a $500,000 diamond tiara, you wouldn't do it. You'd look in the glass, run your fingers through your hair, yawn and say you wish your hair was the color of Lil's. "Nothing in the way of making it that way, is there?" inquired the misanthrope Nothing is so delightful as uncertainty. If you were absolutely sure of heav

en, say, your investigations of the sulphurous regions would be profound and continuous. The charm of the pre-matrimonial season is its lack of continuity. It haphazards along and things as old as the world seem as new as America when Columbus discovered it. When you can pluck the rose every morning you are apt, after a time, to leave it hanging on the bush. The rose may be more beautiful than ever blush rosier, smell sweeter. But you simply don't want it. And the rose mournfully wonders why you stopped and picked a sunflower from its stalk a common, measley, yellow, seedy, old sun-flower. The sun-flower, however, attracted you for the moment. It suddenly loomed up as the most desirable flower in the garden. Not that you really thought it was pretty. If you'd stop to analyze you'd have admitted that it could not hold a candle to the rose. But it's the first sun-flower. you'd noticed and you wanted it. You could have roses any time. In the course of things you find that you can have sun-flowers whenever you want 'em and so pass 'em up for the daisy or the poppy or the tulip or the tiger-lilly or any other blossom that bursts into bloom under your wandering, and perchance, fascinated gaze. The continued proximity of a beautiful woman or a handsome man may, in time, drive to drink and disaster. We can't stand an eternity of the same thing. That's why the conventional heaven with its throne and crowns and angels and glittering golden sreets does not satisfy our spiritual longings. That's the reason that everybody should have a vacation. Away not so much from the mading crowd as from the family. Their habits get on your nerves. There's Susan who drives you to distraction by snuffling when she talks. You know she can't help it. That she's got catarrh and hasn't been able to cure it although she's tried every known remedy, patent or otherwise. You feel sorry for Susan. Because she's good, is Susan. Al-

ways ready to stay at home with the children or lend you her best hat or give you the biggest piece of pie. But that snuffle well, it's unendurable. It recurs at fixed intervals. And Susan, dear soul, loves to go into voluminous detail about the doings of her restricted world. She talks and talks and talks and you find yourself listening for that snuffle like the recurring motif in a symphony. If it is prolonged beyond the occult instant you work yourself into a

frenzy for fear it lost forever. If I

it gets in two beats ahead you want to shriek and beat the table and gouge out Susan's eyes. Finally you tell Susan that you want to read that you have so little time, yes, you know she never gets to see you any more and that you never want to talk about anything you admit that you seem selfish but you've got to have some time to yourself

And Susan, hurt and injured retires I

to an upper chamber to discuss your unregenerate manners with anybody who will listen. You feel ashamed of yourself but Susan's snuffle is too much. You simply can't stand it. You don't want to go to the gallows or the guillotine by the route of its devilish operations on your temperament. But you know that is what will happen if you hold prolonged converse with the excellent and beloved, if snuffling, Susan.
