Milk wiiRons go ho fust on Hellbent

""IIH surrender of d 'Amiimzio concludes one of the most dramatic
J- nix I picturesque episodes of tliis generation. Tliiwe who feel
tlmt only the sprrtiiculiir death of the insurgent poet uoulil render
the mclo-ilranm nrlistically complete, fail to comprehend the phyehol
o:y of the principal aetor. ,
D'Aniiiiii.io is primarily an artist of temperament, of the Latin
leniperainent. AVith him symbols are realities. That scratch oil his
arid dome, from a shell splinter sufficiently ami much more viviiliy
lypil'i"'d the hero's coup de iracc, than any more realistic ceremony,
involving the services of a sordid and unimaginative undertaker.
And in d'Annunzio's scenario, he must he both the corpse and
the grave digger. The details can he left 1o no bungling hand. If
riddled by machine gun builds, he could have executed a high dive
from Finnic 'n Campanile, mid satisfied that the climax had been well
done, could have directed the final obsequies including the military
salute, the mere fact of holding' his rendezvous with death would not
have deterred him.
Hut there were physical obstacles, which even his genius for
creative realism could not overcome. 80 be allowed the cranial
scratch to suffice, just as the Kaiser, instead of leading bis forces to
u glorious death, allowed 'rheumatism and wood chopper cramp to
suffice. Deallt to a sell'-driiinati.ed egotist is so, well not only in
artistic but disappointing.

PAYfNG BILLS.
ONU sport my jaded spirit Ihrilis, and warms me through and
through ; it is the sport of paying, bills when those. same bills
arel due. AW other pastimes lose their charm as years roll on
their way, and old men, viewing with alarm, observe their domes
are gray. Each month I lake my- fountain pen and make the
green ink flow, and write out checks for iron men to every man
1 owe. And alter that 1 push my car athwart tho spangled lea,
or whack the golf halls near and far, or practice archery. 'Home
