THK best advice a young woman who
Is still studying cnn get from a
friend is this: "Don't make a garret
of your mind!" ,
Tour ambition should not be to know
everything, to remember everything, to
discuss everything. This is a fault o
youth. Then ,
"When I was younper'n wut you see me now.
Nothing from Adam's Kali to Huldy's bonnet
Hut I vai full-cocked with my Jedgment
en It.
If ybur lire were to last a thousand
years, and you were to sleeplessly acquire
facts and were to be mysteriously en
dowed of retaining all you might acquire,
you would still be "like a child picking
up pebbles on tho Bhore of the Ocean of
Knowledge." You would still be a mil
lion years away from knowing every
thing. But, as men and women are constituted,
there la no such long existence guaran
teed, there is no euch capacity for sleep
less work, there Is no such Immunity
from lapnes of memory. "We aro what we
are. The problem is to make the most
of ourselves. To do that we must study
first out absolute limitations.
Therefore, throw away the trumpery of
knowledge.
First of all, never remember anything
for the vain glory of remembering it.
You are not likely to seek employment
In a museum a a human cyclopedia.
Nobody is going to fall down and worship
you because you know the date of the
battle of Thermopylae, and he doesn't.
Nobody will be pleasantly affected by
your demonstrated ability to repeat
"Paradise Lost" backward. These things
make serious persons smile. I am sorry,
but I think It must be confessed that too
much of our organized education neglects
this proposition, which seems to me very
self-evident.
Good Servant, Bad Master.
Memory Is like fire a good servant, but
a bad master. It Is, in a sense, the basis
of all the faculties of the mind; the
carpet, if your prefer that figure, on
which we walk to success. But a basis
must be of something besides filigree
work, and the carpet must be neutral in
tone, never distracting one's attention, if
one is to walk across It surely and rapid
ly. The vanity of memory is a chief
stumbling-block to youth of both sexes,
toyo often a stumbling-block that the
merciful hands of time fail to remove.
I know a woman who Is really familiar
with the history of ancient Egypt. She
likes nothing else so much as to dissert
on the dynasties of the Pharaohs, to ex
plain to weary, wondering minds the
worship of Isls and Osiris, the reasons
why the cat was a sacred animal, and to
describe the- glories of the Egyptian
priesthood. She has so many facts at her
tonsue'e end on this subject that she is
a sort of a social leper, and people walk
blocks rather than meet her where there
can be the slightest chance of her break
ing loose.
1 know another woman who has made
a specialty of vocal and instrumental
music. She cannot sing and cannot play
any Instrument. She can give pleasure to
no one through her knowledge. She is a
deadly bore without knowing It.
A third woman of my acauatntance is
equally daft on architecture. If you call
on her she will enow you as fine a col
lection of photographs of the best cathed
rals in all Europe as you can find In any
private house in America, She will spend
two hours, if you will let her, telling
what she has seen and what she has
learned, and incidentally what you have
neither seen nor learned. That is where
.the offensive element of a disordered
memory Is most apparent. There is no
man. woman or child who likes to have
iis own inferiority too strongly brought
out. Few of us ever forgive It. None of
us ever courts a second Interview with
on0 who has been guilty of this lapse
of good breeding.
How One Should Know.
It has been said that one ought to
know something of everything, and every
thing of something. But, like every other
rule, this needs explanation before it can
convey any definite meaning to the mind.
The something of which you should know
everything ethould be related to your vo
cation in iltfe. It should give you an ad
vantage as a worker in your own field.
It should be useful, not ornamental. It
should not be a matter of vanity, but
a matter of calculated utility. The some
thing which you should know of every
thing is in the nature of things limited.
I think I may have told the story of
the man who bought the "Encyclopedia
Brltannica" by sections. He ' had a
wonderful memory, and set out to
memorize all the articles, and make
himself the best equipped person in
the world on matters of general irf
formatlon. He was remarkably suc
cessful. He got down to the end of
"C" before his patience gave out. Even
afcer that he manifested marvelous
knowledge on any subject of which
the catchword begins with "A." "B" or
"C." but was Ignorant on all other
, subjects. He had tried to do too much,
i But the knowledge he had was. In a
I measure, systematized, and to that ex
Item he had the advantage over many
1 of the rest of us, of which he was Just
' ly very proud.
I remember a dear old garret, the
mecca of childhood, where all manner
ot things that had passed their days
of usefulness were stowed away. There
was a rocking-chair with two broken
arms, an old sewing-machine that
j would sew no longer, a pile of volumes
' of the United States census, a shocgun
; with the hammer missing, a half dozen
worn-out umbrellas, a wooden home
made cradle that had done duty for
: two generations, three cracked looking-glasses,
and two trunks full of
oh! I can't begin to tell you what was
In the trunks. But everything was
always In confusion. Too many minds
. are like that garret. . Nothing Is In
order; and, though the list of what
is there might fill a book, nobody
cares what becomes of it all. Such
a hodgepodge of knowledge Is almost
worse than no knowledge at all. There
Is a certain virtue In substituting sim
ple ignorance for the more complex
kind. ,
Value of tho Pigeonhole.
On the other hand, I remember a
study in which every book . on the
shelves was In Us proper place at all
times when not In "service; In which
every drawer In the desk had US defin
ite use, and the pigeonholes above
were full of all sorts of references,
which the owner of the study was
never at a loss to use when there was
occasion for so doing. His pens were
!n one place, his paper In another, his
envelopes and stamps always ready.
There are some minds for which this
study Is a figure. They do not at--

tempt to hold everything. They have
within Instant reach what is likely to
be needed. Their owners work rapid
ly and logically, because cheir material
does not have to be. searched for. But
in the pigeonholes there is a store
house, not of. facts, but of ways to get
at facts. It is the pigeonholes to which'
I want to call especial attention.
Never take trouble to remember what
can be easily searched out in a refer
ence library or in .reference books of
your own. It is much better to know
where information on a hundred points
can be obtained than to know all about
five points so that you can give your
knowledge as from a book. If you
apply yourself to the sort of memor
izing that I am approving ,you will
be astounded at the range of your
possibilities. Most human knowledge
is recorded 'somewhere. Make it your
business to know where whatever you
want is recorded. When you read,
read with that end in view. Keep a
memorandum that will refresh your
memory as to the exact sort of in
formation to be obtained from a par
ticular book. Let your reading cover
a field, but don't load down your mind
with what it is bound to refuse to
catry.
Effective Cribbing.
I once knew a man who had followed
this plan. He was suddenly asked to de
liver a lecture on the history of French
literature. He never had paid any par
ticular attention t'o the subject. In fact,
I believe he never paid any particular at
tention to any subject. He accepted the
invitation promptly. I went to listen to
him, for I wondered what on earth he
could do with it. His address lasted for
40 minutes and everybody was sorry when
it was finished. It was vivid, instructive
and seemed the result ot .the ripest knowl
edge. He was not talking to Ignorant
people, and any blunder would have been
Instantly detected. When he was through
and had received general congratulations,
I asked wonderingly: "How did you do
it? Did you crib it all from somebody
else's lecture without -giving credit?"
And he answered: "You might hunt from
now until the end of the century, and
you never could tell where I cribbed that
matter. . I didn't crib it. I merely spent
an hour in the Astor Library, digested
the facts I needed, picked from each of
at ma
CHURCH

SHE HAS
half a dozen books and then wrote my
own lecture. My memory system always
stands me In good stead." He was telling-
the truth. I never knew him to be at
a loss for the treatment of any toDlo,
and yet he never tried to remember mora
than where certain information could be
had the pigeonhole In which the recorded
knowledge was stored away.
In practice, the pigeonhole Is every
thing. It does for a mental worker what
an automatic ptanoplayer does for the
person behind the keys. The drudgery of
fingering is avoided, and one can give
exclusive attention to the element of
?s i" flu 1
dp
s.
harmony. So, relieved of the drudgery
of remembering, the mind is able to de
vote itself to synthetic work, to original
work, to work that means something for
oneself and for the world.
Therefore, I end as I began: Throw
away the trumpery of knowledge. Seek
for wisdom, not dead facts. Don't make
a garret of your God-given mind. And
remember that for the mind, as for the
stomach, indigestion is always the intro
duction to dyppepsia. Wisdom and
philosophy are never amiss, for they en
large the mind, but when the brain is
made a storehouse for facts and figures
it becomes inactive. I knew a girl who
had a desire for learning the population
of cities. She even wrote to the Census
Bureau in Washington to secure exact
data. This knowledge never helped her,
and it never failed to disturb the peace
of mind of her friends, for she could talk
of nothing elee. She bored them com
pletely. One by one they deserted her,
and she grew to be considered a narrow
minded, uninteresting, good-for-nothing
person.
LIBRARY AND

Moffat, Yard & Co. have opened an office
at 6 Henrietta .street. Coven t Garden, London.
"Cleveland Education Through Ita Chamber

"Japan's Modern Novelists." by Tone
Noguohl, with portraits, appears in the Na
tional Magazine, and has a fresh, distinctive
Interest. "How the Siege Was Raised," by
F. A. McCormJck, is a stirring war story of
the fine style of Stephen Crane.
e
Margnerite Mertngton's sparkling novel,
"Scarlett of the Mounted," will soon be pub
lished by MofTat, Yard & Co. The author's
widely known dramatic talent has full wtn
In this frolicsome novel of the gold-lined and
ice-plated Northwest. The story has incisive
wit. brilliant dialogue and a rapid succession
of humorous situations. The juxtaposition of
the extremely sophisticated girl of the Ejt
and the rough frontier characters affords many
a lively and laughable situation.
"The Making of a Socialist." by William
Hard, is a justification of Socialism by a
lawyer who never read Marx, and It certainly
provides food for thought In the August
World's "Work. Charles M. Harvey dlscuttaes
"Roosevelt's Successes and Failures."
Two of the principal articles in the Mertx
Magaslne are: "Modern Business Building,"
by E. G. Jones, the advertising manager of
The Portland Oregonlan, and "Advertising I
Would Like to See." by Tom Richardson,
manager of the Portland Commercial Club.
"Our Country Roads." by Henrietta Sowle,
is the principal feature In Suburban Life. It
deals with the random thoughts, fleeting Im
pression and the more lasting memories
of a day's drive on rural highways. William
Macfarland writes on "Climbing Vines in the
Back Yard."
"The Curb Bit," a record of some effective
rats regulations, and written by Ethel Hut
son, appears in the Reader for August, and
contains many interesting features of the Texas
railway struggle. Geraldlne Bonner talks of
"The Passing of the Argonauts' City" Ran
Francisco. The Action features In this num
ber are up to par.
In his story, "The Builders. Where CUt
and Ranch, MeetJ" Ralph Paine in Outing
writes in an optimistic, cheerful strain of the
country surrounding Los Angeles. L. De B.
Hundley tells of "Speed Swimming, the Three
Recognized Methods." The colored pictures
are above the ordinary.
The Woman's Home Companion for its out
side cover has a charming picture of a little
maiden a la Kate Greenway, so much above
the ordinary that It alone is worth the price
of the number and Is worth framing to grace
your favorite wall. Marlon Harland writes
an article on this poser; "Are New York
Club Women Shallow?"
The Western Magazine, with a home office
at San Diego. Cal., makes its bow with Its
first number for August. It Is edited by John
Bcott Mills and its mission is to helo to
make known the varied resources of the West,
particularly the California slope. The tab!e
of contents ts a strong one, and the magazine
well worth reading. Ben B. Lyster contributes
one story, "A Night In Oregon."
Professor A. E, Kennelly, of Harvard Uni
versity, Is putting the finishing touches to a
popular work on "Wireless Telegraphy" which
brings this fascinating subject to Its last de
velopment, scientific and commercial. He
makes the whole subject clear to the un
scientific mind, sketches Its history and dwells
In some detail on Its development In America.
The book Is Illustrated in funning! y with dia
grams and plans.

"Disenchanted" Is to be the title of Pierre
Lotl's book, which the MacmlUan Company
Is to publish In the Autumn. This novel,
which deals with harem life in Constantinople,
has roused a great deal of discussion during
Its run. which is not yet concluded, in the
pases of the Revue Des Deux Monde. It
will appear simultaneously in France, Eng
land and the United States.

There is evidently a revival of Interest in
the work of Edgar Saltus, Judging from ths
new editions of his works published by Mitchell
Kennerley. Two months ago "Imperial Pur
ple." originally published In 1892. again ed
peared, and now there Is announced a now
edition of "Mary Magdalen," first published
In 1891, and which has been out of print
since the original publishers failed.
Bram Stoker's "Reminiscences of Fir
Henry Irving" is now well under way, and
the Macmiilan Company announces that in
all probability the book will be. published
October 13, the anniversary of Irving's
death. The two volumes will be fully lllus
trated with portraits and views connected
with the great actor's life. This seems like
ly to prove one of the most memorable and
widsly read biographies of the year.

Herbert Quick writes a helpful article In
the World's Work for August on "Desert
Farming Without Irrigation," describing the
simple, Inexpensive Campbell system of work
ing the soli that produces abundant crops la
arid regions, and he tells the story of Its
discovery, methods and results. One Illustra
tion is given of a field at Holdredge, Neb.,
where 54H buehels of wheat were grown to
the acre. Splendid pictures are also given
illustrating marine photography.
A peculiar circumstance In connection with
the publication of "The Incubator Baby,"
Ellis Parker Butler's new book, is that neither
the author nor the illustrator of the book
had ever seen an Incubator baby until after
the story had been written and Illustrated.
The rather clever way In which the Incu
bator baby makes her entrance Into the tale,
the fidelity of the drawings and descriptions
of Incubators and incubator babies when com
pared with the real thing in the incubator
baby show at Coney Island are therefore the
more remarkable.
Commander Peary has a timely article on
"The Lure of the Pole" In one of the August
numbers of the Youth's Companion timely,
because the attractions set forth by the ex
plorer are of a kind which appear more
tempting in August than in February. The
numbers are brightened also by stories of
all parts of the world. Rowland Thomas
serial of life in the Philippines. "Coming
Into His Inheritance," Is continued; there Is
a sea story of the Qrand Banks by Theodore
Roberts; another of adventure in Southern
California by Dane Cbolidge, and a capital

A breery novel will be published this month
by Moffat, Yard & Co. under the title of
"Richard the Brazen." It is the joint work
of two accomplished craftsmen, one a novel
ist, the other a playwright, namely, Cyrus
Townsend Brady and Edward Peple. the lat
ter author of "The Prince Chap." Imagine
two financial magnates, one a New Yorker
and the other a Texan, with a finish feud
between them and their daughter and son,
respectively, deeply In love but uncertain of
each other's Identities. Richard, the Texan,
tackles the complicated problem of Eastern
finance, society and lovemaklng with genuine
Texan fervor, and there results such a tancle
of trouble that the reader's brain reels with
its difficulties.

McClure, Phillips & Co. announce for im
mediate publication "Letters to a Chinese
Official," by William Jennings Bryan, a re
ply to ths famous volume which has attracted
such widespread attention both In England
and America "Letters From a Chinese Of
ficial" in which the Ideals and state of civiliz
ation of the Western world were criticised
from an Oriental point of view and in com
parison with Chinese standards. The story of
the writing ot Mr. Bryan's book has a pe
culiar interest of its own. Mr. Bryan was in
China when the above-mentioned little book
was brought to his attention: and because ie
felt that the cause against his own race was
overstated, and too glowing a picture was
painted of the condition of affairs in the
Celestial empire, he sat down In an Interval
on shipboard and wrots a reply, sending it
to this country from Sues, Egypt. Mr. Bryan's
book ts more than a mere reply to another
book. It Is a glowing confession of faith
in ths Ideals and purposes of our race, and
more particularly those of the American peo
ple. It is permeated with a spirit of wise
and serene ODtimlsm,

Close to the western shores of Laurel Lake
in Lenox, Mass., Is Mount, ths beautiful Sum
mer villa of Mrs. Edith Wharton, novelist,
where she wrote "The House of Mirth." In
this Summer home Mrs. Wharton lives with
her husband, Edward R. Wharton, until long
after snow flies in December; there they en
tertain during the gay Lenox season some of
the -best known men and women of literature
in the country. While Mrs. Wharton built
the Mount for recreation and pleasure, she
does much of her writing there, and- she is
said to have secured some of her types for
"The House of Mirth' from Lenox life. For
her principal chracter, Lily Bart, however,
she had to go elsewhers.
Mr. md Mrs. Wharton enter Into all ts
social life of Lenox. They attend the gaxrVn
parties, the afternoon teas and the dinners,
but they dislike notoriety. Almost in the
center of the l&o-aor tract and commanding
a picturesque view across Laurel Lake and
to tha hills beyond is Mrs. Wharton's country
place. It Is approached by a winding drive
first along the border of ths forest and later
beneath its inviting shade. The driveway
ends In a circular courtyard, surrounded by
a high brick wall. A statue rests In a niche
at either side, and creeping vines struggle
toward the top. The house l of ths English
seventeenth century style, a copy of Belton,
a famous English home, the seat of Lord
Brown low In Lincolnshire, Its taateful archi
tectural lines, its well-chosen location and Its
pure whiteness combine to sive the house
an air of statellness and dignity. The villa
was built four years ago.
P. Berkeley Smith, whose books of Paris

whose new book, "In London Town," will
