THE MAN WHO KNEW MEN.
A Character Sketch.
Mr. Jonas Fitzbaron was a man
who "knew men." He knew them
with a sir, after the fashion of those
prompt,, peremptory people who are
logic proof and demonstration blind,
and on"whom any other person's ex
perience or knowledge has no more
effect .than rain on a duck's back.
"What' they 'know, sir, they know
and there's an end on't.
Mr. Jonas as we will take leave to
call him was at the head of a flour
ishing" manufacturing business in
Boston. He was short, stout and
sixty. Originally a slender youth, he
began to accumulate flesh when he
was near forty, and before his half
century mile post was turned he
could till the belt of an ideal Santa
Claus, with what his sons irreverently
styled his "bay-window." At first he
was proud of his increasing weight,
as all men are until it comes to bo a
burden as "though size were synony
mous with soundness, or the joggling
of fat when one walks, an indication
of high condition. But his two
hundred pounds so weighed him
down that -he was often heard to say,
when mopping his brow and puffing
for breath after unusual exertion,
that he hoped his spiritual body
wouldn't weigh over a hundred and
thirty; for Mr. Jonas was too sensi
ble a man to believe in fog-wreath or
any vapory habitation as the soul's
tabernacle on the other shora He had
a large head, covered with bristling
gray locks, each particular hair stand
ing at an upright angle peculiarly
and individually its own. Under a
massive forehead, marked by busy
eyebrows of such thickness and
length that the young chaps often
coveted them for mustaches, gleamed
out a pair of small but very bright
and steady blue-gray eyes like the
glint of steel where it has been new
ly cut off. His nose was a beak,
arched and strong; and his mouth
was made for either smiles or com
mands, with a capacity for ringing
laughter one moment and a snap like
a steel trap the next. His heart was
warm with all sweet sympathies, yet
subject to sudden surface chills like
the Gulf stream, where the iceberg
drifts across it
Mr. Jonas's strong point, as I have
intimated, was his knowledge of men.
In his own estimation, he could read
them like so many books; and he was,
therefore, very intolerant of errors of
judgment in this particular in any of
his subordinates.
"You ought to have known better!"
was his customary outbreak, when
some of them had been deceived.
"Didn't you see the man or hear him
or did you trust him by mail or
telegraph See a man, and not know
he was a blank rascal f he would
sputter. "Bring 'em in to me, when
you doubt! Let me read 'em! Do
you suppose the Almighty is a liar or
a bad penman? He writes character
on the face, and it's there to be read.
You don't think, sir. Thinking is
the hardest work that's done in the
world, and the most commonly
shirked, therefore. Now, I use my
faculties. That' what they were
eiven me for. as I understand it. I
just put two and two together. Prod
uct, four. It's the simplest thing in
the world."
"Don't talk to me of phrenology, or
jahizology, or any of the other
ologie3," he would say, indwelling on
his favorite theory. "Match men's
heads with their deeds and charac
ters, and you can upset all the luna
tic theories . in the world. Chaps
with big heads, as bumpy as a cobble
stone pavement, shaped just like
one of the phrenologists' plaster casts,
sell peanuts or sweep the crossings;
while men with little craniums, as
billiard-ball, lead their party, or
rule the market, or charm the senate.
You stick one of the 'professors' with
such examples, and he falls baok on
the 'quality of the brain.' Quality of
fiddlesticks! 'All humbug! All hum
bug, sir!"
And, this point being settled be
yond the chanpe of argument, for
not one of the Fitzbaron tempera
ment and disposition would as soon
think of arguing with Niagara that it
dosen't fall- as of disputing Mr.
Jonas's dictum, he would preceed:
"How do I know men, then? Why,
sir. it's by all those things which,
taken together, sir, we call the 'look'
otaxnan. That tells. The eye, the
mouth, the way in which the lines lie
and the wrinkles run, the lay of the
hair, and the twist of the beard,
and the voice! Why, sir, let me hear
a man talk in the next room, in the
dark, and I "can tell you whether he
bM come from a prayer-meeting, or is
after your silver, or both, by Jove,
air, hypocrite and knave together!
"The laughj who was it that called
laughter a true detective? Emerson?
Well, he talks, straighter sense than I
supposed, from the class of mooning
abf t-sheUs, I hear prating about him.
A laugh often blows a man's mask
off right before your eyes, sir. He
joomea to me as a man; but I hear
from hig.ownjnouth that he i3 a wolf,
fox, or a hyena.. I always look to
see if the safe is locked, and the in
voice lists turned bottom side up,
when I -hear 5ne of those forced, cold,
automaton sort of chuokles that some
men have. Then the simpleton snickers,-
the laughing that is all done
with the lips and teeth, like a dog s;
the artificial laugh, that is always the
same, like the striking of the clock,
lookout foremalll But the merry
laugh; the infectious laugh, child
like in its freedom and full of contag
ion; the great "hearty laugh that uses
I&b voice, the eyes, the muscles of
ihe face, and the whole frame, and
then doesn't seem fully expressed,
von can tie up to these.
"But this alone isn't enough. You
can't always hear a man laugh or
talk naturally. If you can, and put
your eyes on to him besides you
oHght to know him."
"But what about the women?"
once asked a curious friend.
Well, now you are leading me into
deep crater," said Mr. Jonas, sitting
down as though he had a session on
hand, tipping back in his easy chair,
crossing tiis fat legs, and laying his
Infer suggestively on the side of his
notf. "I don't pretend to understand
women," ho continued, almost in a
whisper, looking furtively around as
though he apprehended some one
might be near, a performance that
threw a whole reflector-full of light
on his domestic relations
"Nobody understands women, at
least, more than one or two. Men
pretend to,but they don't All fus
tian, jir. Woman, considered gener
ically, is a Sphinx, a Sphinx, sir. I
dare say the Maker knows the an
swer to the riddle, but he has never
revealed it"
"And yet, as' the old wit said, rid
dle though she be, men will never
give her up," suggested his friend.
"Why, no, of course not God bless
her! Of course notP Mr. Jonas was
rather particular in the matter of
jokes.
"The fact is," he continued, as
though no interruption had occurred,
"the women are not trained rightly.
They have ever so many thousand
years of subjection, of various sorts,
back of them. "We men have never
given 'em a fair chance from Adam's
time down if the scientific gentle
men have left us any Adam. "We have
acted as though we had a divine com
mission to settle her state for her on
this earth, when we haven't a scrap
of warrant for our assumption. Man
is a living souL "Woman is a living
souL God made each for the other,
not both for one. And in one or two
hundred years more, when her rights
as an individual soul are recognized,
she may have a fair chance."
"But at present," continued Mr.
Jonas, rousing from his unusual
preachment, "women are trained to
deceit and dissembling, and seeming
to be and to feel other than they are
or do, vastly more than men are.
Much of it is innocent enough, per
haps; but it is bad bad. She is
taught to appear unconscious, when
she is painfully otherwise; to look in
different, when she is intensely inter
ested; to seem pleased, when she is
bored; and happy, when she has the
heartache. If the command, 'Thou
shalt not lie,' has more than one
meaning, society, or the woman it
makes, has much to answer for. I
am a plain man, sir; and 1 say it is a
blink shame IIIooil. Such are Dyxpeptia, Billlfnimat,
'Take the matter of social calls, , order ncadachi. Backache. General Weak

them do complain enough for all the (
rest, but there's commonly reason for .
it One old maid I knew," said the
philosopher, a smile rippling over his
rosy features, "who never heard any
body speak of illness that she hadn't
experienced herself. She had been
through, according to her tell, the
whole line of ills that flesh is heir to;
and the only way my wife could stop
her sympathetic but unconscious
lying was to go to talking about our
twins. That stumped her!" And
Mr. Jonas laughed till his fat sides
shook.
"Then take homo life domestic
affairs, sir how many women are
really and thoroughly happy, out of
those that look so, or try to.' l am
not quite blind, myself, and a woman
friend of mine, who has been in the
world a long time, and under no ends
of roofs, with her keen eyes widei
open, says there are just nine per-
foctly mated, utterly lover-like, ideally
happy married couples out of five
hundred that she knows; not even the
finger-joint of a skeleton in their '
closets, you understand no mere
housekeenins or family-rearing part
nerships, but homes of love with all ,
mat mciuues. oau n ien out ui u
hundred, and, before you double it,
even, run over the list of your inti
mate acquaintances carefully, and you
see what actresses society makes of
its seemine-happy wives!
"Why, when I was a young fellow,
sir, thirty years ago, I knewintimate
ly a lovely girl, with splendid capaci
ties for enjoying and bestowing the
best happiness this world affords,
who married to please her family, not
herself, though nobody knew it but
the man himself, whom she frankly
told, like the thoroughbred lady she
was? Of course he took her, notwith-
Standing; we men always do. Thej
day before the wedding, I met her; x
and she said to me, with almost her
usual radiant smile, 'you are coming
up to the sacrifice to-morrow aren't
your" xc was use ociiig siauueu
Willi till lUlCltr. -n.llCi LUC uciciuuu.r, I
as I went up to tender congratula
tions with the rest not one of whom
knew or guessed her secret she
looked me through with her glorious,
great, serene eyes, looked farther
away, both as to distance and time,
than any glance I ever saw before,
and killed with the look the words of
formal congratulation that were on
my lips. I pressed her cold hand,
and said only, 'God help you!' But
she was an angel of a wife to the
good man she married, while she
lived, and carried the face of one
through it all with a courage and
sweetness that made me a worshiper
of the sex. How is a man going to
know such a splendid creature as
that, unless she voluntarily opens to
him a corner of her heart?"
"I knew another woman," said
Jonas, rising to terminate the inter
view, "who lived three as distinct
lives as though she had been born
triplets, more so, in fact. She was
a brilliant young woman, ambitious,
studious, learning everything by in
tuition, fond of the best books and
the finest music. She hated care,
rebelled against restriction, disliked
young men, and was as girlish in al
most all ways as a healthful and
handsome girl could be. Suddenly,
she married off-hand a man of the
world, and for vears lived assiduous
ly, and apparently with keen relish,
the life of a gay, spenatnnir, aressy,
flirty woman of society. Her hus
band was her more bill-payer and con
venience. He died when she was
thirty, and after a year of travel she
married a sober-sides of a college
professor, and made for many years a
sedate, simple-living, high-thinking,
devoted wife and model mother. At
what period in her life, I should
like fo know, could a man be said to
have known that woman?
"I tell you, sir, you have got to
mam your woman to know her; and,
if she is at all smart, she will keep on
giving you revelations and surprises
for a dozen years at that At least
I've found it so," said Mr. Jonas,
with a comical twist to his eye, as he
took up his gold-headed oane and
went out
