The newsboys on the street corners have no right to take the credit for my scareheads." "They are a self-respecting race, Bobby; they don't want to." "How unkind of you, Sally! But the cases are analogous. And my final point, aside from professional jealousy, is the economy of time.
That boy is trustworthy, or I'll eat my hat." "Well, I think so too. Then he simply corrupted Ferguson and wormed the whole thing out of him. Pretty clever, the whole thing, wasn't it? How much Ferguson may really know, or suspect, I have no idea. Of course, there is only one thing to fear now, and that is scareheads in the New York papers to-morrow attempted kidnapping foiled, and so on.
If that's not creating, I should like to know what is. They never have any connection with facts." "What is your grievance?" Thayer asked languidly. "I was just getting to that. As I say, I create. You only interpret. I don't know as it counts that you don't try to interpret my scareheads, though some of them would make stunning fugues.
The opposition papers put the accident into scareheads with the result that public opinion became very bitter. It looked like a bad crisis at the very beginning and the old ring politicians made the most of it. But they had reckoned without the political shrewdness of the socialists.
The papers were to tell of him again, but casually, without scareheads, among the yesterdays and aviators in France. That though was later. Meanwhile an enigma remained. Very heroically a young man had done nothing. Hurrah and good-bye! The calciums of curiosity turned on an obscure fiddler who, after murdering another young man, had succeeded in bilking the chair.

And you notice how quickly the papers finished with the Kress' thing." Eyer knew, all right. The papers had broken the story of the return in flaming scareheads. Then the thing had come to a full stop.
The whole effect of crowds on the individual man is to emphasize scareheads and appearances, advertisements, and the huge general showing off. The ride in the train from New Haven to New York is the true portrait of a crowd.
You have only to look at the Senate of the United States, to see how that body is capable of turning itself into a court of preliminary hearings for the Last Judgment, wasting its time and our time and absorbing public enthusiasm and newspaper scareheads.
"We know that Thayer's voice is beyond all odds the best we have heard for a three years. How do you do it, Thayer? You look as calm as a Dutch dolly; but you manage to tear us all to bits. Even I felt sanctified at your recital, and Miss Van Osdel's lashes were freighted with unshed tears." "That must be one of your next week's scareheads," she objected.
"It is out of my line. I am a greater artist than he is, a typographical song without words. I do scareheads, and buffet the devil. Thayer?" "Yes?" "Do you honestly enjoy this sort of thing?"
