Profanity is very convenient in many ways. In case of anger it is supposed to prevent the peeved per— son from blowing out; through the seams. After a man has emitted about 10 cubic feet of high tension profanity his pounded thumb feels better and he no longer desires to throw the hammer through a $10 window pane. l Profanity is also used indust1iallyl by steamboat mates and automobilei mint s. it is next to impossible to' operate a 'eamboat Without a full; head 01’ profanity.

Profanity is also used by poor talkers to 1111 in blanks in their c1111- versation when their brains are m 1. By the aid of profanity,' a man with a one candle power brain ' can talk steadily for a long time, slipping: in one cuss word to two 111'- llnai'y words and thus making liis' mg lire. 1 supply last longei. Piofanity is mostif, desciiptive and is \ci'y vivid Some oi it is such accurate description that afte1 a man has finished using it, the ail“ smells like an old-fashioned eight: day match. Profanity is also very irritating to the hearei. Al'tel tihu recipient has listened to a few min— utes of profanity produced by an: other man, he often takes the pr ducei‘ by the neck and cleans off hall' a block of sidewalk with him. lt‘: takes a very intelligent man to stai'tl a quarrel without the use 01' pi'oi‘a - < ity, but with its help any one can cook up a fight in three minutes. Profanity is not refined, and it is 1eg'arded with horior by the best people, except when it is heard on the stage. 11' the hired girl were to say “damn” in the aveiage family, she would be fired forthwith, but this l word is always greeted with greatl applause in a play, and it is a great‘ boon to the weary author, who would 1 otherwise have to think up something ' original at that point. Profanity is not a hard art to ac- , quire. It can be learned in the home 1 with the aid of a telephone or a weak , chested furnace in a very few leis->1 sons.
