HIS DooR EVERY Copyright, 1910, by The Prese Publishing Co, (The New York Breaing World And yet that mighty gentus, that man of almost universal wisdom, FOUR, had his supreme benediction for the flat head, the one who has no brains and is, therefore, unable to think. It was as though Humboldt baa said, “Happy is he who was born an idiot.” I feel that I am safe in saying that to the most of us the great scien- tist’s words have the wrong ring. We do not like them, They smack too Mecidedly of cynicism on the one hand and of despair on the other. Lord Byron had something to say of the “Demon Thought,” and every one who has done any honest thinking can fully appreciate what Byron meant. Byron and Humboldt and every one who has seriously tackled the dig job of trying to solve the great root secret of things knows how vain the task is, how brain-racking and heart-breaking it is, and how, after all our mental struggling, we find ourselves facing the wall over which we cannot climb and through which we cannot bore. ‘The problem, in its deeper phases, will not be solved; the impenetrable, unecalable wall wih not take itself our of the wi and the temptation is | A Practical and Conservative Matron’s Frock. * A anne HE air of dignity and sta- bility which this frock @x- ploits will appeal to the matron of middle age who likes to express in her clothes an ac- quaintanceship with D: jon, but in a way ¢ served Two materials are here com: bined, which might be of such contrasting textures as tafveta silk and wool poplin, or satin and lightweight serge.

The flat head, sitting in the sun. CADDY ~ tbe trimming portion, may be shine eating his taffy, untroubled by the problems of the mind, is not to be envied. It is better to be “disturbed ov the joy of elevated thought even though the thoughts be attended by “vanishings and blank misgiv- ings,” than it is to be a flat head or a Caliban. It 1s a joy to think, even though we are often forced to return from the sunt empty-handed. Thinking is brain thrill, mental ecstasy, the most exhilarating of all the delights that are known to us. The ability to think is the badge of our greatness. As Pascal has put it, “Man, for all bis little. | ness and weakness, is a grander thing than the planet, for man can think, white the planet cannot.” The very word MAN means “thinker.” To think is our nature and | eur glory; and while there always will be unsolved problems the active | nind has lots of fun TRYING to solve them.
