An amusing story Of Swinburns In
told by Edmund Gosse. At the age Of
twenty-thres Swinburne was sent to
study history under Bishop StubbA
who was then In charge OF q country
parish In Essex. He arrived thoRe on
. Saturday and vas excused ee11nA-
ance at Sunday morning church on the
ground that he must be tired with his
Journey.
He had breakfast in bed, but finding
It glorious morning he arrayed him
self IN scarlet slippers ard a light
crimson dressing gown, sauntered into
the garden and leaned pensively over
the gate. with his red hair flaming bril-
hantly In the sunlight.
The church bells were ringing and
the Practitioners had all to pass the
parsonage gate to get to church. But
none Of them dared to pass the ham-
ing apparition, and all came to . halt
The church bells stopped, but at the
instance Of the vicar. who could not
believe that all the parishionsrs had
deserted him. were rung again
At last the boldest man In tho VII
iage bolted past the gate and the rest
stampeded after him, Swinburne gazr
ing at them in quiet wonder at their
strange method. Of going to church.

William Dana circuit, whose new
novel, The Moth" has Just been pub
llshed by the Harpars, IL noted for his
extreme diligence In verifying all his
torical facts that appear in his novels.
When writing one of his earlier nov.
els, 1.-THE Spell" he made q special
trip to Florence In order to verify Ger.
tain illusions and locations. One OF
the first, pilgrimages was to San Do
menico to find the ancient Inscription
upon the wall, which Helen Armstrong
points out to her hus band In the hrst
chapter. Says the author, Il had never
been able to discover where obtained
this data. SO was particularly anxious
to verify it. One morning. accompanied
by Mrs. circuit, set out ON what seem.
ed hopeless quest. We located the
old Etruscan wall, with its curious
marks, but no legends. Finally We
came to some laring posters announ.
cling an auction sale. and beneath
these, when pulled aside. we found
the Latin words, cut deep In the.
stone.

DIVIDED INTO Two CLASSES
Differing Processes Of the Mind May
Be cIassed Either as the wis
uaI" or the "Auditivs.s

The great majority OF people can be
classified in one or other OF two pay
Geological types. corresponding TO the
great senses OF sight and hearing.
These classes sometimes are called
the ''visuals" and the "suditives" re-
spectlvely. The "visuals" or visualiz-
ePs seem to conduct the majority OF
uheir mental processes by visual sym
bolism. They think In pictures"
their mental method is graphic. The
majority of women belong TO this
group. and, OF course. the majority OF
painters, sculptors. architects. deco
rators, engineers and mechanically
gifted people Such people readily APP
prehend space relations, and can CON
ceive new or IS. II they posssss this
power in high degree they may paint
hne pictures, build new types Of archi.
lecture. conceive new machines.
The auditives, on the other hand.
think more in sounds and words and
not in pictures. They naturally In
clude the musicians, the men OF let
tiers and the scientific and philosophic
among men than among women. They
notice things around them less, and
are more commonly credited with be-
Ing "absent-minded."
II great development of either is
rare, vastly rarer ID great develop
ment of both in one and the same In
divldual. Such individuals stand out
as the few supreme examples of what
we call versatility, and Of these the
most notable representative in the his
tory of the world 10 Leonardo da Vinci.
