more truly resemble the charac-
tiers of real life than the fasci-
mating, though sometimes false,
reasonings and achievements Of
Sherlock Holmes resembles the
proceedings and methods Of sue
cessful living detectives.
In the very best fiction the
characters presented are, by the
nature of the case, forced prod
ucts, like plants sprouted and de-
veloped under artificial, invented,
and exaggerated conditions. Even
If the writer of q fiction allows
himself to float unrcsisting on the
current Of his ideas as to what
a given character would do. or
become, in given circumstances,
the result cannot be true repre-
sentation of nature: it is colored
by all his unconscious prejudices
and all his ignorance.
On the other hand, If he de-
Iiberately shapes the course Of de-
velopment in accord with acts,
situations, and motives supplied
out OF his own invention, he must
possess great effrontery to claim
that he has held the mirror up

y PRICKED up my ears, meta :
phorically, when I saw in
4 LIE Temps, of Paris, under
the general head: Medical Chat,
(Causerie Medically, an article
"Apropos of Psychonalysis, signed
by a doctor. ]. Logre. 1t
was not any .ievouring interest
in Freud'sss speculations that
moved me, but sentence in Doc
tor Logre's opening, which seemed
to promise something trust
worthy, at last, on that dream
translated, read:
''In order to enable the cult
waited public to seize the relative
business and the interest of this
doctrine F'reud's 'libido1, it seems
to US best to choose a precise
example, a clinical case well
known to all, and giving oppor-
tunity for somewhat detailed
demonstration"
Good, said to myself, now we
are going to get something solid
and truly scientific. But imagine
my revulsion when, eager to see
this promised precise example"
and clinical case" read on to
the following effect:
Nov, there is in French liter
allure hero whose singular
agreements (errors, wanderings
of the spirit, are, without doubt,
dependent on the psychological
mechanism invoked by Freud. It
is Paphnuce, the monk uncon-

the middle of a characteristic
French romance instead Of being
introduced into the presence Of

the nature of a demonstration,
with precise details, of the "just-

Life is too short and too seri-
GUS to be wasted In considering
the kind Of psychology" present
ed In love stories, even when the
writer of the story happens to
have been a great ''stylist," such
as was Anatole France.
There has been much progress
in recent years in truly expert
mental study Of the operations Of
the mind, and 1t is to destroy the
value OF such genuine investiga-
tons to mix UP their results with
dreams, fancies and unverifiable
speculations based on the mag
Sned doings of imagined men and
women. Science is even less suit
able than history for presentation
in the dress Of fiction.
This IL not to say that all
stories called psychological are
worthless, considered as stories.
Some Of them are very powerful
and fascinating, but it is both alb
surd and harmful to take them
seriously as substitutes for genu-
inc psychology, as a great num-
