Envoy Bocobo, Learned in Law,
Holds That Genius, Wit and
Wisdom of People Prove Case.
Editorial Correspondence of The Sun
day American.
WASHINGTON, June 12.-<Jorge
Hocobo, member of the Philippine
Commission and dean of the Law
University of the Philippines, has
promulgated a new theory. It is that
the psychology of a people is best|
Judged by its proverbs.
Meeting Mr. Bocobo and tnquiring
ehsually as to the progress of the
eampaign for Philippine independence
J was rather nonplussed by his re
ply, which seemed to be entirely eva
sive.
“Do you hold Lord Bacon to have
been a wise man?” he asked,
*Alexander Pope declared him to
bave been the wisest of mankind,” I
replied.
“Exactly,” said Mr. Bocobo, “Now
you may recall that Bacon sald, “The
genius, wit and spirit of a nation are
discovered in its proverbs'”
“Well, what of it?” I asked.
*This,* said Mr. Bocobo. *“1 have
gathered some of the best proverbs
©of the Philippine race, and 1 present
them to you that you may have a true
fnsight into the psychology of the!
race and decide for yourself wh('!h--rl
they are not a people fit for self
government.’
These are the proverbs which Mr,
Bocobo gave me

The Revelations of a Wife
A New Story of Married Life.
By Adele Garrison. | -
(Continued from Yesterday’s
Georgian.)
‘¢ FLL, old girl, what sort
W of day did you have?”
Dicky's cheery voice
came like a fresh breeze through
the stale alr of a closed room. I
had been brooding all the afternoon.
The discourtesy and ingratitude of
the woman across the hall, and my
experience with Harry Underwood
on the omnibus had depressed me,
I had sat pretending to read, but
in reality idly thinking ever since
I had come baeck from my unpleas
ant bus ride, 1 had eaten no lunch
eon, for we had breakfasted so late,
and this was the first time I had
seen Dicky since morning.
“A perfectly horrid day, Dicky.
Oh! but I'm glad to see you!"
I clung to him as he kissed me.
He evidently read my need of his
sympathy, for he picked me up and
carried me to our armechalir, and sat
down, gathering me close to him,
and smoothing my hair.
“Now tell me all about it” he
sald, “Get it out of your system
and you'll feel better.”
1 had to decide swiftly how much
T should tell him of Harry Under
wood's annoying persistence in
seeking my society. 1 knew Dicky's
unreasonable chiylish jealousy, 1
did not wish to céouse it if I could
possibly handle the situation my
self. 1 made up my mind to hold
my tongue concerning hig friend's
ridieulous actions for a ’hlle, at
least.
“You were right and 1 was wrong
his morning about those people
across the hall,’ I began,
“Why! what did they do? Were
they rude to you?" Dicky bristled at
the mere iden of rudeness to me,
“I' tell you all about it, and you
can judge for yourself.”
So for the second time I retailed
the petty little story of the rude
ness of my neighbor across the hall,
EJ Jove!” Dicky ejaculated when
Ih finishel, “I never heard any
thing to equal that. We saved
her baby's life among us, and she
considers it a bore to meet you,
Well! I guess the next nursemaid
who rushes in here with a dying
infant will be told.to beat it to the
nearest hospital.”
I could not help but smile at
Dicky's indignation and his way of
expressing it,
"’reu mo all about it, this min
ute!”
“There couldn’'t anything like that
happen again, It is too strange an
occurrance to come more than
once.”
“I should hope so.® Dicky's tone
was still wrathful,
“Let us forget all about it. I'm
sure 1 never want to think about it
again” »
“All right. What did you do when
you walked away like a tragedy
queen ?”
“Nearly walked into an automo
bile and had my life saved by a
policem@an.” I smiled at the recol
lection, . .
“Whit! You're joking, Madge!”
“Indend, I'm not, but there wasn’t
any danger, I think, even if the po-
Neeman did scold me.”
He ligtened quietly until T had
finished, then took me by the shoul
ders and shook me playfully, yet
the grip of his hands hurt me. But
I did not mind, for both the clasp
of his handg and his scolding words
warmed my heart with the message
of love and concern for me they be
trayed.
“Don’t ever, ever do such a thing
again,” he sald. “What do you
think would become of me if any
thing should happen to you? 1
don’t want to think or talk of it.”
He shook his shoulders as |if
throwing off the memory of the
occurrance,
“l hope yon had a pleasant ride,
It surely should have been a dandy
to make up for the rest of the
morning.”
1 smiled grimly to myself at the
hateful memory of the ride. But I
must not let Dicky suspect the
truth, :
“The ride was well enough” I
sald indifferently, “Mr. Underwood
boarded the bus a few blocks after
I did and rode a number of blocks
with me. He ig rather tiresome,
don't you think so?"
Dicky looked at me keenly,
“Not many women say that about
him,” he replied,
“Well, T thick him decidedly tire
some,” I returned. “When [ ride
on the top of a 'bus, I either want

“Like me?” Diaky teased, smiling
at me.
“Like you,” I answered, returning
his smile,
“Dinner ready,” Katle's voice ‘
broke in.
“And here I have not even my
overcoat off. 'That's what comes
of comforting downhearted wives."
Dicky hurried into hig room,
The little talk with, Dicky had
restored my cheerfulness, We were
both hungry, and ‘we made a most
excellent meal, neither of us talk
ing much until the coffee came in.
“l have a dandy scheme for to
morrow.”
Dicky lighted his cigar as he
epoke and stretched himself luxu
riously.
“What is it?”
“Well, if tomorrow ig like today,
I've just got to get a whiff of coun
try air. Today was like spring, and
the minute anytNng like spring
comes, I'm like a fish out of water
until 1 get to the country. There's
the bulliest piece of country out
on Long Island about 256 miles, real
brooks and woods and meadows and
things like that, And there's an
old inn that datek back a hundred
years or more, where you can get
the bulliest meals you ever até”
“We'll go to bed early tonight,
and get up tomorrow in time to
take the 8:10 train from the Penn
sylvania station, That will get us
out there at 9, and we'll have a long,
glorious day.”
“Oh! Dicky, won't that be splen
did? I don’'t know of anything in
the world | would rather do. 1 have
always wanted to live in the coun
try ever since I left it when I was
a little girl.”
“Well! 1 don't know about living
in it the year aronnd,” Dicky sald
dubiously, *“I imadgine it would be
an awful bore in the winter time.
But in the summer time it is the
only thing to do. That's one thing
I want to go out there for tomor
row, Perhaps we can pick up some
place we would like for the sum
* mer.”
“Oh! Dicky!” I repeated inanely.
To live a whole long luxuriously
summer in the real country! It was
too good to be true, I had had short
trips to summer resorts, weeks of
vacation spent at farmhouses de
voted to the entertainment of sum
mer guests, but housekeeping in a
real country home-—it seemed like a
glimpse of paradise,
“I know you will enjoy it tomor
row,” Dicky said. “By the way,
amuse yourself with this for a few
moments. I'm ont of cigars, I find.
I'll run out and get some.”
“This’ was a box of sugared
almonds, my favorite bonbon. I
settled myself luxuriously in my
chair to wait for Dicky's return
when a sudden disquieting thought
struck me,
