and his tragedy as being elemen-
tary melodrama. They think, per-
haps, that chroTnos are as fine as paint
1ngs, and in paintings they see no. diff
ference between TrumbulI and Cole,
and the most finished products of the
school of Barbizon. All sorts of things,
in word, can give them pleasure They
are undiscriminating and for that very
reason they are always finding some
thing to admire and enjoy On the
other hand the ultra cultivated man,
who has been educated to a nice appre-
citation of the very finest work in liter
AZURE, in art in music, and in all else
that ministers to aesthetic qualification,
is necessarily most difficult to please.
When he enjoys, he enjoys far more
intensely and with far more intelligence
and insight than his unenlighteneh
neighborsl He even enjoys his own en-
joyment, for he can give an eXplaaat ton
of it, and it gratifies him to contemplate
the unerring certainty of his own taste;
yet necessarily the sphere of his enjoy
ment becomes very limited. His critical
faculty, growing more and more severe
by constant exercise, will more and
more reject whatever savors of the
usual and the commonplace. If he have
a love for music, there will be a time
when the Italian composers will give
him pleasure and when he will think
that Beethoven and Mendeassohn are
mighty masters; but as time goes on he
will outgrow this comparatively elei-
mental estimate. He will become Wag
merriam and will find pleasure only in
the extraordinary combinations and the
intellectual art of that epoch making
master. Then, later on, even Wagner
will seem to him inadequate and insin-
cere, and out of all the music that ex-
lists he will give himself completely up
to that of Brahms alone. And it is the
same with everything else. His taste
and his knowledge and his power of dis
elimination will become SO inordinateiy
developed as to bring him in all things
to the vanishing point, and perhaps his
chief pleasure will then lie in the in
tense conviction which will take hold
of him that he has grown beyond pretty
nearly everything that ordinary men
and women care for, and such happi-
ness as he enjoys will be the rather
sEylobatic happiness Of one who SITS
upon a peak reared high above the
world and hugging himself in silence at
the thought of his own intellectual iso-
lationl
It is a very difficult question and one
that does not we'll admit of a dogmatic
answer. But on the analogy of what is
true in other spheres it may, perhaps,
be safely said to be alsp true of intel
lectual and aesthetic pleasure that there
are a maximum and a minimum pre-
scribed for every human being; that if
one gains an added zest through the
quality of his enjoyment he loses the
equivalent in respect to quantity; if he
knows a keerler happiness than his fell
low, he is able to experience it far less
often; and that if he is capable of
deeper. subtler and more intelligent
pleasure, he can find but few things in
this world quite capable of giving it,
