Herbert Spencer's Fussiness a Trial to
Those Who Did Not Know His
Real Kindness.
More examples of Herbert Spencer's
irritating foibles and extraordinary
pettiness are superfluous, but two of
them will bear the telling.
A friend had the opportunity of see-
ing in full working order the famous
ear-stoppers that Spencer used to
wear. Probably some frivolous re-
mark of the friend obtained him this
privilege, for in the middle of the meal
Spencer, with a fixed glance at him,
pressed the spring that closed the
hole of each ear.
After luncheon the host and friend
sat chatting in the garden, when there
came an invitation from Spencer to
take a drive with him in his rubber-
tired carringe, the message adding that
“we are not to talk,”
When they were returning from
Spencer's. funeral Sir Michael Foster
told tlds friend the following story:
Spencer detested cushions, and the
trouble was to find a chair that was
hard in the seat and yet comfortable,
So. at a last resource, he had a seat
covered with some inches of soft plas-
ter of paris, and sitting on that made
gn impress from which a wooden seat
of an exactly fitting pattern was cut.
Against a certain undeniable fus-
sipess there should be set the fact
that Spencer had a soft place in a
heart that seemed adamant, and there
are stories of spontaneous acts of kind-
ness and of offers of help to the trou-
hied and bereaved that redeem much
unlovely behavior.

Franklin has a friend
who vouches for this story. Coming
the ‘elevated one morn-
struck by the explosive
red-faced, choleric man
on a seat nearby, ‘This man, annoyed
because a youth facing him had placed
hes feet on the seat which the man oc-
cupied, burst out in a storm of pas
ston, denouncing the youth In tones
that aroused the attention of passen-
gers in the adjoining cars. He finally
out the platform at a
stop, bolling with rage.
That noon Doctor Franklin's friend
went into a self-service restaurant for
lunch. Getting a plate of vegetables
and meat, and one of pumpkin ple, he
placed broad extension
arm of one of the chairs provided for
lunchers., and made room beside them
for his cup of coffee. As he was fin-
ishing his lunch he reached for the
pumpkin ple, and clumsily knocked it
off the chair arm.
To his horror he saw it disappear
into the gaping pocket of a large over-
flung over the next
chair—and then he perceived the own
or of the overcoat bearing down upon
him, &ll unconscious of the accident,
with a plateful of food. I was the
