A youth and girl were married not
long ago. They promised to love,
cherish and obey-all the things that
are a part Of regular marriage ser
vice, and mean much or little, as the
case may be. The man and woman
were strangers. They met on the
day of their marriage. The courtship
was a matter of correspondence, and
the correspondence was the sequel to
wager made by the youth with his
college chum. Why will men and
women triAe with matrlmony? They
wouldn't invest 500 in a gold watch
without thorough investigation. They
would ask for n guarantee. They
would be certain that what looked
like gold was not brass. They would
consult an expert. They would be
sure that the timepiece was real

Nowadays we read too much, as we
eat too much; the memory, like the
digestion, is weakened by surfeit-"
These words are taken from recent
biography of Whittier. The author
shows how meager in quantity was the
intellectual diet of the poet in boy
hood. The Bible, "Pilgrim's Progress"
and few of the volumes which form
ed the Quaker library Of his parents
were the chief staple of his reading.
The contrast between conditions Of
boyhood which produced such men as
of our day are nurtured is frequently
pointed QUITO the disadvantage Of
the present. 1t Is the fashion to be-
wall the multiplication Of books and
magazines. Because one person or an
other tries to read them all and fails,
or meets with that success which turns
his mind into scrap-bag riddled with
holes, 1t Is argued that modern condi-
tions are all wrong, and that "civili-
! Zation" should turn back to earlier
ways. 1t is a plausible cry, but is it
quite convincing? The world is full Of
a number of things which did not ex-
ist a hundred years ago. Moreover, its
population has enormously increased
which is to say that where there was
| formerly one boy or girl looking for
| knowledge, there are now hundreds of
similar seekers. Therefore the agen-
cies Of knowledge have inevitably be.
wiideringly increased. But must the
| individual inevitably be bewildered
| That there is no more of a cat than its
skin is homely statement of unchang-
ing truth. The human mind is still
the human minl Not even a Bacon
can presume in our days to take all
knowledge for his province. Out of
every thousand printed pages there
may possibly be one or two for any
| given person. The teacher-of another
and Of himself-must learn to discrimi-
nate. The wise man will rejoice In
every new road to learning, but, after
treading the few paths proved the best
by the wisdom of the ages, will enter
those new roads only which are meant
for him.
