EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Did you ever have the experience of
finding yourself suddenly thinking OF
some person or some place which you
hadn't thought of for months. and
which there was apparently nothing in
the landscape, the conversation or your
own trend of thought to suggest to
you?
I'll answer for you. Yes. If you are
my old friend, ''The average person"
of course, you have.
And now another question.
Do you ever attempt to seek out
what has been the train of thought or
the aeroplane of suggestion that has
conveyed this place or person to your
mind?
Again, I'll answer for you. You have
not. But you really ought to try, for
truly it is most interesting expert
ment. Someone suggested it to me
and the other evening I tried it.
I was walking down the street alone,
after visit to the dressmaker's. 1 was
thinking of new spring gown and Of
nothing else when suddenly, quite to
my own surprise. I realized that the
thought of a man I hadn't seen for
year or thought of for the same length
of time had popped into my head. At
first 1t seemed to me that the coming
of this thought at just that moment
was absolutely unaccountable, and
then I searched about in my mind and
found that 1 had just passed the house
where his first wife's people had once
lived. My eye had undoubtedly lit
upon the house and far below the sur
face of my conscious mind the train Of
thought had started that brought that
mans image to me. The process of
suggestion had been so swift that I
had been entirely unaware of it, but it
was there just the same, and suppose
1t always is even when We utterly fail
to identify 1t.
In a somewhat similar fashion, often
during a conversation. after a. mo-
ment's silence. you or your companion
will suddenly speak out on a subject
quite alien to what you had been talk
ing about.
Now you will find it a most interest
ing experiment to trace, or ask him to
trace, the train of thought that car
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-04-13

ried you or him so far away from the
previous topic.
And not only are such experim ents
interesting, but they are also excellent
mental training.
After you have traced a train of
thought a few times you will be sur
prised how much easier the process
comes and how much knowledge you
are acquiring of one of the most fas-
cinating of studies, the psychology of
your own mind.
Y y
For the first spring millinery black
and white is apt to be. from year to
year, the dominant color scheme.
There certainly could not be a more
effective one and a hat in these col
ors is ever safe investment as it pro-
claims neither winter nor summer in
tones which resound too loudly. The
