Charles Cerlew, vagrant, pleaded be fore a Cleveland police Judge that his whole life has been cursed by his having been christened In babyhood with whisky. What small excuses serve some people as satisfactory Justification of their failure! It's quite the usual thing for a man to plead that he is a drunkard and a gooa-ror-notning oecause nis iainer was such before him. There's the commonest plea of all heredity, and It's the sllllost. Ninety-nine drunkards In every hun dred will tell you that the taste was forced upon them under some pe culiar condition. Thoy He every one of them. The drunkard does not live who at one period in bis life had not a natural repugnance to drink and did not, of his own accord and against the pro tost of his stomach and his better nature, batter down that repugnance and acquire the taste. Heredity has Its limitations. More alluring lies and self-delusions have been hung on that word "hered ity" than on any other perhaps in all .the lexicon of sueclous sophistry. .Man 13 born of a great father and a good mother. Does that make him great and good? Oh! no. It Is never claimed that heredity works that way. The man who gots ahead In life Is usually content to take the credit to himself. But the man who goes to the devil always accuses somebody else of having greased the ways. This is not denying that there Is some force In heredity and more in oarly training and environment, but It Is a force that except In rare In stances may be overcome or rightly directed. And out of inherited faults often bloom great virtues. The knowledge that you have a weak spot Is reason to guard yourself there a reason that a man with the right stuff In him will obey. To one of America's greatest actors was transmitted by his father a double tendency one for the stage and the other for the bottle. The son cultivated the first and repressed the second, and achieved world-wide fame. According to the commonly ac cepted notions concerning heredity he should have reversed the order and gone to the gutter. Heredity Is so easy a way of account ing for wrong tendencies that It ap peals as Irreilstlbly to certain classes of "scientific experts" as It does to criminals, drunkards and loafers. Quacks gain repute for profundity by holding forth on "laws of heredity," as If they were mysterious ukases Is suod from behind nature's vull, which few can understand, but none can re sist Nine-tenths of It all Is moro tommy rot. Lots of pooplo who are not criminals but Just morally lazy, plead In de fense of tholr sins that they are "the sum of their ancestors." Thus thoy derive tho comforting but character rotting conclusion that they are not responsible for tholr deeds. Evory man, If he bo a man at all.
