While all of us think we know something about patriotism there are few who can make much of a success in telling what it is. Here s definition which appeared recent ly in Golfers and is accredited tc Mrs. J. Ellen Foster of Washing ton, D. G.:
 Patriotism is such a loving sense of the unity and the vitality of the national life as will lead one g!a fly to obey the law, to guard it's dig lity to aid in it's enforcement, 10 exercise a noble self-restraint, to cultivate civic virtues and polit- ical wisdom. to sacrifice, to suffer, ana. if need be, to die for the eoun- try

 All this was of no moment to Moore. He glanced anxiously at Rorke Vivian. He was the oldest of the party. He had done London, Paris, New York in journalistic way, had written three books, spoke little, and then to a pur- pose. He sat now his finely chiseled face half hidden by his hand, and said nothing,
 There was where the whip scourged, there lay the bitter sting for Moore! One word or look of appreciation from Vivian would have been more to the aspiring young writer than all the others might put in volumes.

He rather evaded Moore, the latter thought When Vivian was gone the group broke up Moore was glad of It.. His soul was bruised. He wished to be alone, to think.

 He thrust the manuscript into an in- side coat pocket with savage punch of his fist Then he braced for a long walk. He was emptying out of his mind all the grand plans he had for a story, if his colleagues had given him the least encouragement-especially | Vivian.
 A favorite stroll of his was along | the city edge, where broken stretch had been developed into striking pic 1 turesqueness, and a number of fine residences had exclusive location. At one spot pretty rustic bridge spanned a gully with wayward stream trickling through. He paused there, leaning pn the railing of the bridge.
 The surroundings were magically i entrancing in the clear white moon light and conducive to quiet thought, but Moore brooded. Something had gone out of his life. The first child of his brain had been ruthlessly ban ished.
 Its the humdrum dog trot and the bread and butter after this" he ut l tered, almost bitterly. "Good-by!"
 He ierked the roll of manuscript 1 from his pocket in a resolute way and gave it a vehement fling far as he could beyond the bridge. A breeze was blowing, and the leaves separated 1 He watched them moodily skithel here and there and finally settle doWI

Mankind is prone to regard a good memory as possession be- yond price. This it certainly is within limitations. Yet there are conditions under which a short memory would be much more val uable. We would benefit by for getting the petty sights and in- sults;;1 by ceasing to envy those more fortunate3 by wiping from our mind all traces, of bitterness over wrongs and injustice. Such fac ulty for forgetting would leave ih the human heart memories the a. tithesis of these, that would bless and sweeten our lives and the lives of those about us.
