The popular Idea that geniuses are ueually physical weaklings or men of poor health 1* vigorously combated by Prof, ltudolph M. Binder of New Vori university. As a matter of fact, says Professor Bender, according to the New York Sun, It Ih only because there lias been so much comment about the comparatively few phyaUfal weakling* who were genlufea that the tradition has grown that exceptional < mental power and bodily weakness are related conditions. Declaring his belief that there Is no weakling genius who would not bave been a greater one had ho been of sound body, Professor Binder point** out thai ulftat of the world's greatest geniuses were not only healthy, but often ol ni(?re than ordinary physical strength. "Illustrations of this < oul?r l?r ex tended Indefinitely," said Professor Binder, "but it Is necessary to men tion only a few shining examples down the ages, l.el's begin with Soc rates. The great philosopher . served as a hopllte, which means that be was a member of what we In modern terms would designate as shock troops. He was seventy years old when he was condemned to drink the hemlock. "Omlng down many centuries, Sir Isaac Newton lived to be ellfhty-flve, and was strong and healthy and n hard worker till wltldu a short time of his death. Darwin was born with a rug ged constitution, which he mined by his failure t? care for it, but It enabled him to accomplish a remark able amount of work before he <J,ied at the age tff aeventy-three. "If proof were needed that Herbert Spencer was born with an Iron consti tution it would be provided by that in cident of his boyhood when at the age of thirteen he walked 48 miles one day, 4? the second and 20 the third, and with very little food during the three days. Spencer is another man 'who injured lltflf health by the lack of care ef hlinsolf, but If he had not been naturally Xtrohg he would not bnve lived to be elghty^hree. "Bven Shakespeare who died at flf tjr-two, might bo said to have lived ft good life considering the amount of work he did as playwright, actor and manager. Goethe, an exceedingly busy man, was In good health almost to the tline of his death at eighty-three. "Of the four probably most famous Italians Dante lived to be only flfty eighr, but his life was one of arduous labor} Leonardo da Vinci, an athlete Who outstripped far younger meV In feats of strength, was nearly slxty seven; Michelangelo worked furiously most of hla ninety, years, and Galileo enjoyed good health till his death at seventy-eight. "It was because the population aB a whole wal strong in body that Ath ens produced such a remarkable num ber of geniuses in the days of its glory, and l? we wahtJ&^toci'Case the num ber of geniuses in the world today the way to accomplish It I* to improve the health of all the people.1' , ' ?

Defends Puritan Architecture. Wallace' Nuttings' hook on "Fur niture of the Pllgrhu Century" Is an argument to disprove tho fallacy that the Puritans were Insensible to beauty Of' the rugged substantial rcttcs ot their bulldlhg, Mr. Nuttlri* Mjr* "Tlierfe Is solidity In them, durability, freedom from caprice, and an expres sion of that sober rationality every where characteristic of the Puritan genius. 4 . .. "For adaptation to climate, wise use of accessible ntatertalv inner eon* venlence obtained lit low cost und freedom from discordant lines, Puritan domestic architecture deserves high praise." This Is ne less true of their furnl tuta accessories. It Is wrong to as . sume Hi at tfietr austerity and sim plicity Were forced upon them by mere hardship. Rather were they the out ward expression of an Inner nobility and spiritual exaltation.
