Talked Too Much.

In a certain village of New Hamp-
shire there is a quaint old character
known as Boss Mellin keenly alive to
the truth Of the old saying, "Silence is
golden" Mellin's gift In this respect
approaches genius, though he was full
ly aware of what he deemed his short
comlngs therein.
Mcllin used to make mattresses for
a living. One day n native Of the place
entered his shop and asked. BOSS,
what's the best kind of a mattress?"
"Husks." was the laconic response Of
Boss.
Twenty years later. Sc runs the ira.
dition. the same man again entered the
shop and again asked what, in the
opinion OF Mellin. was the best kind of
a mattress.
STRAW" said Boss.
STRAW? You told me husks was the
BEST"
Boss Mellin emitted a sigh. 1--WE al
ways ruined myself by talkin'." said
he.

When Goethe Dictated.

up from the rccollections of his last
secretary, Christian Schuchardt. or
Goethe's method when he dictated
"Wilhelm Meister" Schuchardt says:
"He dictated with a certainty and ra.
pidity which made II fancy that he
was reading from a printed book. If
this had bagn done in quiet and with
out interruption, | would not have
marveled so much. But while the
work was proceeding there came the
barber, the hairdresser-Goethe had his
hair singed every other day and had 1t
dressed daily-the library servant, Of
ten the former secretary, his clerk, all
of whom had access to his study unan
nounced. Friends called, the barber
gosslped. the librarian told about books
newly received. some member Of the
family would enter and join In the on.

again quiet. I would read the last
sentence. and the dictatiOn would pro.
