THRQ’fI LORGNETTE
it be true that fame liv« af
ter great men only when they save
some immortal poet or historian to
record the marvellous things they
do?
In an article written by Owen Win
ter several years ago on the subject
of the Father of his Country, atten
tion Is called to the fact that to be
famous after you are dead Is one thing
and to be living after you are dead
is quite another. In George Washing
ton, Mr. Wlster thinks, we have the
extraordinary paradox that he stands
the greatest of Americans, yet the
least, alike of all our heroes. This
Is not at all because a hundred years
divide hlta from us. Paul Revere
is as far away as Washington, yet
much more vivid to our Imagination;
so also are Benedict Arnold and
Aaron Burr and Major Andre, so is
Pocahontas. None of these seems to
us unhutnan or made of marble. In
deed to put the thing as superlatively
as possible, is It not true that Cleo
patra's personality is more real to us
than that of Washington? If it is
true, Cleopatra owes that tremendous
survival of herself along with her of
ficial acts to a great biographer and
a great poet. Plutarch and Shakes
peare have handed her down to us
alive, while our American school-books
have frozen George Washington to
death. They have preserved his
fame, but killed him.
In this connection it is Interesting
to read Mr. Wlster’s Interpretation
of the American viewpoint where
Washington is concerned:
"Born Feb. 22, 1732; died Dec. 14,
1799; fought Indlanß—time and place
a little vague—was he not with Brad
dock? Married a widow named Mar
tha; was commander all through our
Revolution; was our first Presi
dent; and had two terms; wrote a
farewell address; know I .aFayette and
Thomas Jefferson; crossed the Dela
ware at Trenton Just before Christ
mas and surprised the Hessians; beat
Cornwallis at Yorktown; and was first
In war, first In peace, and first In the
hearts of his countrymen.
“These ere all public facts. What
does the reader know of Washington
the man? More than likely it will be
as follows:
"Cut down a cherry-tree with a
hatchet; owned up to having done so,
saying "Father, I cannot tell a lie”;
throw a atone far across some river;
climbed up the side of the natural
bridge and cut his Initials; worked
hard at sohool; was very steady;
wa« very good all the time, and every
body looked uj) to him; of course very
brave; of oourse very wise, and a
greut patriot; was one of the greatest
men in all history; was tall, strong,
wore those knee-bjeeches of colonial
days, and a wig; looked stern, would
probably lecture you, and tell you to
be virtuous and you would be happy.
Such, If I mistake not, is the reader's
notion of Washington as a man; cold,
austere, unemotional, without pas
sions, grand, not merely greater than
human, simply not human at all; a
sort of marble statue. A figure to
prize, to be proud of as an American,
a wire to revere, but not a character
to love, to be drawn to, to feel anjl
kinship with. In two words, Immor
tal yet not living."
Never before In the history of Au
gusta has our city been at one time
the .repository of so many jewels as
those that are being worn by the
great number of woalthy tourists who
are here for a more or less lengthy
stay and it is interesting to note,
In observing many of the stonos how
the fashions have changed of late, and
how so many of the stones long
thought ugly and uhlmportant are
now being made Into exi]\ifslte orna
ments that are the envy of all be
holders. The fad for wearing one’s
blrthstone Is responsible, doubtless,
for the Introduction of many stones
valued highly before the beginning
of the Christian era. For Instance, a
very beautiful visitor at Hamptoq
Terrace, a woman famous for her ex
quisite costumes and the uniqueness
of the style In which her Jewels are
set, wears among her diamonds and
rubles, a ring with a bloodstone set
ting, simply because this Is her birth
stone.
Generally speaking, a blood-stone is
not a particularly pretty ring, hut in
this Instance It Is made a thing of
beaut ly by Us elaborate and remark
ably fine carving, a souvenir of a past
so distant that It antedates the birth
of the groat-great-grandmother of the
present owner, indeed goes back Into
almost prehistoric times.
In ancient days, It will be remem
bered, the gems which we count pre
cious were practically unknown. The
Assyrian and Egyptian jewels were
of chalcedony, sardonyx, lapis lazuli,
and Jewel-matrix. Wondefully cut
seals were very highly regarded, and
many of the most ancient of these
have come to Americans through the
Museum of Art.
The fact most noticable In connec
tion with the modern wearing of Jew
•ls Is that there Is a marked tendency
to return to the old superstitious be
lief lu the miraculous power* of cer
tain stones.
The extreme form of the old belief
which Is now being resurrected, in
cludes agate counteracting poisons,
amber sore throat, bloodstone stop
ping bleeding, and diamonds restoring
strength and courage.
The garnet was once universally
believed to cure fever, the moonstone
cured epilepsy, the sapphire Insanity,
the topaz burns, the turquoise pre
vented bruises, pearls brought sorrow
and emeralds were supposed to ren
der a celibate Invisible

Willie Dunlay, with “The Honeymooners,” at the
Grand tonight.
CALENDAR.
Tonight, George Cohan's musical
play, "The Honeymooners.''
Monday, matinee and night (Wash
ington's birthday), “The Man of the
Hour.”
Tuesday, matinee and night, Max
Figman in "The Substitute.”
‘The Honeymooners.”
As everyone knows a summer suc
cess in New York Is the hardest won
success In the show business. Geo.
M. Cohan’s “The Honeymooners,”
which comes to the Grand tonight,
ran ail summer at the New Amster
day theatre. This summer hit of
“The Honeymooners” on Broadway
was the tribute of New York to the
genius of the brillant young author
and composer who in "The Honey
mooners” has done the best work of
his marvelous career. Tills great Co
han song play comes with the com
plete New York production and a
powerful Broadway cast. There are
two score pretty girls costumed in
Paris gowns; there are a score of
typical Cohan song hits and there Is
action every second and a story that
carries one away with it.
"The Honeymooners” combines in
one fascinating entertainment all the
Cohan excellencies and the verdict of
New York Is enthusiastically indorsed
everywhere.
Seats now selling. Prices for to
night, 25c to $1.50.
“The Man of the Hour.”
Every man, woman and child in the
United States In recent months has
heard the expressions: “He’s a game
bird; but he flies funny;" but there
is doubt that more than 25 per cent
of those who have heard or have used
the expression know its source. It is
one of the big laughing speeches in
“The Man of the Hour,” which will
be acted here by William A. Brady
and Joseph R. tClrlsmer’s special com
pany, made up of well known actors,
on next Monday, matinee and night,
at the Grand.
“Where does the laugh come in?”
many will ask who have not seen the
play. Where does the laugh come in
with any of the best jokes of the
ages unless the whole story be told?
Nobody will laugh at the sentence:
“To get to the other side.” In the
bare form in which it is here given;
but preceded by the interrogation,
“Why does a chicken cross the road?”
that lino has created more laughter
than any combination of words In
the English language. Moral: If you
want to get the full measures of
laughter from “He's a game bird, but
he flies funny.” go to the Grand Mon
day, matinee and night, and hear Al
derman Jimmy Phelan speak It In re
ply to Mayor Bennett, just before
that nervy young man wins hack the
love of the woman for whose respect
and admiration he has done and dared
so much.
Seats now- on sale. Prices, matinee,
25c to $1.00; nlghf. 25c to $1.50.
Max Figman, in “The Substitute.”
It is seldom that one can sit in a
theatre and become so engrossed In
the story that they entirely forget
thetr surroundings and forget that It
is ail only make! believe and the men
and women on the stage are only
acting. It is true, however, of Max
Flgman's play, "The Substitute,”
which appears here on Tuesday,- mab
Inee and night.
The characters are drawn so natur
ally and the development of the story
so consistent you almost think you
are part and parcel of the story your
self and mingling among people you
meet every day. This is real art In
dramatic writing
Seats are now on sale. Prices, mat
jnee. 25c to $1.00; night, 25c to $1.50.

NO SUFFERING TOO GREAT.
Not long since, a young woman, :
suffering with an incurable disease,
applied for admission to a hospital in;
a southern city.
“I know I must die,” she said simp
ly to the attendant physician, “but do
something to keep me alive for a lit
tle while for my bathes’ sake. In
a few years they will not need me so
much.”
Her one chance lay in a very pain
ful operation, but her heart was so
weak that the surgeon dared not ad
minister an anesthetic. Very gently
ho explained the situation —the opera
tion would make but a year’s differ
ence at most; it seemed hardly wortij
while to suffer so much for so brief
a respite; she would best go home
and —wait, but the little woman shook
her head.
