Master of Memory.

It was Whistler's habit to memorize an effect in nature, and MT. T. R. Way, in his recent Memories" gives an example of his cleverness at it. I shall never forget a lesson he gave me one evening. We had left the studio when 1t was quite dusk and were walking along the road by the gardens of the Chelsea hospital, when he pointed to a group of buildings in the distance, an old pull lie house at the corner of the road, with windows and shops showing golden lights through the gathering mists of twi- light.
 Look" he said
 As he did not seem to have anything to sketch or make notes on, took out notebook and offered it to him.
 No, no; be quiet!" he said; and after long pause he turned and walked back few yards; then, with his back to the scene, he said:
 Now, see if have learned it," and then he gave a description of the scene, perfect in every detail of ar- rangement and color, as he might have repeated poem he had learned by heart.
 Then we went on, and soon there came another picture that appealed to me even more than the former tried to call his attention to it, but he would not look at it.
 "No. mo-" he said; lone thing at time."
 In few days I was at the studio again, and there on the easel was the picture-Youth's Companion.

Chauvinism.

A chauvinist is one who is absurdly jealous of his country's honor or puffed up with an exaggerated sense of national glory. The words "chau- whist" and "chauvinism" are taken from the name of Nicolas Chauvin, a soldier of Napoleon. who was so mo- torious for his exaggerated and de- monstrative devotion to the imperial cause that he was caricatured on the stage, and his name came to stand for all people who work mischief by their unreasoning, irascible and vainglor- tous patriotism.
