Reading Versus Thinking.

1t is good to read, mark, learn
but it is better to inwardly digest. 1t
is good to read, better to think-bet-
ter to think one hour than to read ten
hours without thinking. Thinking is
to reading (if the book read have any
thing in IT'D what rain and sunshine
are to the seed cast into the ground
the influence which maketh it bear
and bring forth, thirty, forty, an hun
dredfold. To read is to gather into
the barn or storehouSe of the mind ;
to think is to cast seed corn into the
ground to make it productive. To
read is to collect Information to
think is to evolve power. To read is
to lay a burden on the back; but to
think is to give TO the feet swiftness,
and the hands strength. Yet we have
a thousand or ten thousand readers
for one thinker, as the kind of books
sought after in circulating Libraries
bears witness.
