Description

Excerpt from Are You a Bromide? Or, the Sulphitic Theory: Expounded and Exemplified According to the Most Recent Researches Into the Psychology of Boredom, Including Many Well-Known Bromidioms Now in Use In attempting to solve the prob lem which for so long was the de spair of philosophers I have made modest use of the word theory. But to the Sulphite, this simple, convincing, comprehensive expla nation is more; it is an opinion, even a belief, if not a credo. It is the crux by which society is tested. But as I shall proceed scientifi cally, my conclusion will, I trust, effect rational proof of what was an a priori hypothesis. The history of the origin of the theory is brief. The Chatelaine of a certain sugar plantation in Louisiana, in preparing a list of guests for her house-party, dis covered, in one of those explosive moments of inspiration, that all people were easily divided into twofundamental groups or families, the Sulphites and the Bromides. The revelation was apodictic, con vincing; it made life a different thing; it made society almost plau sible. So, too, it simplified hu man relationship and gave the first hint of a method by which to ad just and equalize affinities. The primary theorems sprang quickly into her mind, and, such is their power, they have attained almost the nature of axioms. The dis covery, indeed, was greater, more f ar-reaching than she knew, for, having undergone the test of philosophical analysis as well as of practical application, it stands, now, a vital, convincing interpre tation of the mysteries of human nature.
