When Knowledge Is Valuable.

The faculty of having one’s mind pigeonholed Is of great value. Some people have i their ipental bookcases and storerooms piled up with masses of material, all valuable perhaps in their way, but jumbled up mid piled together so that when any oue thing is wanted It Is uot to be had without overhauling ten times as much other material, which, however valuable it may be In itself, has no particular use at tbe moment of search. Other people can lay their mental bands on any particular fact or fancy at n moment’s notice aud can keep on pulling out other facts and fancies -of the same general character until they have told or found all they know. There is such a thing as an embarrassment of riches in one's mental treasury as well as tn matters material.—Exchange.
