Whether being beaten over the head with a broom by your wife is conductive to philosophic re trospection or deductive cogita tion or not is open to discussion, but the fact remains that this was Socrates' daily portion and he was the wisest man the world has ever known, all the morals of all religious are founded on his d. scourges and he was the greatest philosopher of all time, according to Marshall J. Gauvin, who delivered the first of the season's series of Rationalistic lectures in the Academy theatre last night under the auspices of the Pittsburg Rationalistic So ciety. "Every man who reads and thinks today reads and thinks the thoughts of Socrates," de dared Mr. Gauvin, "Is it not a disgrace that millions in this twentieth century never heard of his life and death?" Mr. Gauvin got about as much applause from the crowded house as is usually given on week- nights to the choruses of pretty girls and the comedians. He told of the life of Socrates, and especially of the latter's wife, who, the world has acceded for the last 2.400, was the meanest woman in history. Socrates mar ried her, thinking that if he was able to get along with her it would be very easy for him to be in pence with the most terrible of the world, other than her. Pittsburg Leader.
