SHE DEFENDS
LAZINESS
-RY LucY LOWeLI-

K
II AZINEsS Is a very hard thing
~ indeed, taken in homeopathic
doses not too close together.
Genius, we have long been told.
Is no more than infinite capacity
for taking pains and this Is all
very well and very true. But the
shine rubs off genius which keeps
too everlastingly at it; all work
and no play makes the brightest
mind in the world stodgy and
prosy and dyspeptic.
Fasten the mind upon some
thing; study that thing concentra-
tedIy, from all angles, exhaustively.
You will find in the end that con.
gciously you have retained only
some Of what you have learned
about 1T.
But subconsciously you have
filled a great mental storehouse
with facts and it is in your peri
DDS of Iaziness- those times when
you are loafing, doing nothing,
thinking nothing, that these facts
begin to assemble themselves into
a definite pattern. building UP
in your mind that rare thing,
Original Idea.
AS a matter of fact. original
idea Is no more than your own
concept Of the accumulated con-
cepts of othersa sort OF syn
thetic picture of many pictures,
but ii is the measure Of your
mental development.
Just as seed must lie in the
ground, with periods Of quiet be-
tween watering and cultivation.
before it suddenly springs into
green and beautiful life, so infor-
nation must rest in the subcon-
scious undisturbed at times before
it flowers into conscious knowl-
edge.
Crowd the mind too full OF ef.
fort and you subject yourself to
the dangers of mental Indigestion.
Take time to be lazy now and
then. You will find it a good in
vestment.
