moral to a story, nor tell a story with

tale, sees not. though -he have eyes.

The soul of Shakespeare is in nis

to be, using no text save the lives ot
men, deducting no morals, save the
visible and necessary consequences
of acts, good and evil, unconscious,
but none the less, perhaps the more,
real and effective. Shakespeare
teaches like nature, noiselessly ana
silently, proclaiming no laws of moral

nature is governed by laws to which
man must conform, so Is human life
conditioned by moral laws, which arc

Shakespeare Justifies this standard.
respecting him. What point of moral
has he not suggested? Here ho is
true to nature. He presents to us
life's moral problems, though he does
not simultaneously give us the solu
tion which we must dig out, not
dream, achieve, not guess, for our
selves. Life is not unlike tho sphynx
In demanding the sacrifice of life
from him who fails to come upon the
key to the riddle of the universe.
Dowden, one of the most illuminating
of Shakespearean critics, has put this
thought very simply: "Shakespeare
will present life as It is. If life pro
poses unexplicable riddles, Shake
speare's art must propose tUein also."
Inexplicable riddles! Is life made
up of these? Let us take a nearer
view of two of the tragedies of Shake
speare and leafn that he was great
and overtowerlng, for as much as the
light of his genius piercod through
the darkness of somo of the unfath
omable mysteries of life, so that much
became inexplicable to him.
Lear and Macbeth, it Is true, bear
out the words of Lowell, "His busi
ness was with men, as they were, not
as they ought to be." But it is none
the less true that this man of vision
"who saw life steadily and saw it
whole," seeing man as ho Is, the
naked moral being as he is, has hplp
ed us to sf-e man as he ough to be,
and as he ought not to be.
Lear Is a study In gratitude, the
vice of black ingratitude to which
monBter, Shakespeare, In words of
Victor Hugo, "Gives two headH,
Goncril and Regan." So terrible Is
this sin, so utterly unspeakable Is Its
manifestation, that words iannot con
vey the hideous and loathsome quali
ty. The turmoil and discord of the
elements are needed lo convey the
horror, the sffrightened storm, the
pitiless rain, tho crash of the ele
ments, all in fitting accompaniment
to the moral clash and ruin which
Goncril and Regan have brought up
on the world; nothing can be worse.
The universe is topsy-turvy, for its
moral foundation has been assailed.
The world must go to pieces, for lovo
and reverence and gratitude have
been dethroned and trampled upon,
and enthroned is the devil with all
tho cohorts of hell. The earth quakes
and things are shaken to their very
core, for love, which is the sanction
and support of life, has been annihi
lated and leviled.
Nothing can be more tragic than
the tragedy of Iar, and still there
Is that which lifts up the tragic Into
the region of the sublime, into the
realm of the divine.
It Is the salntliness of Cordolia,
which throuchout opposes the claims
of goodness and light and power of
darkness and evil, raven n ine iov

able has been said, 'ITioso who know
tho young man aro familiar with the
clrcumstancps of tho case and tell
the following facts:
Last spring tho young man's father
bought several head of steers and
gave them to him in tho valley. They
were driven into tho Potts country
to range and it seems that a calf be
longing to a neighbor got Into tho
band and was branded with young
Blackburn's brand.
A few weeks ago ho was out round
ing up his cnttlo and came across tho
calf. A neighbor was with him, who
told Blackburn that tho calf was not
his. Blackburn said If Oil was tho
case tho branding was done through
mistake and ho thought It was his
and that tho owner could have the
calf. His friends thou told him that
ho would have to defaco his own
brand or ho might get himself Into
troiiblo. so tho culf was caught and
tho brand defaced bo Blackburn's
brand was not noticeable. This was
what caused tho talk of defacing
hrnudu. but it Ih assorted by tho
neighbors of Blackburn, ono of whom
is County commissioner unmanu,
and la In town today, that he wwM
