This time I am summing up the fourth chapter of "Matter and Memory". First of all, we choose between the images, emphasising the strong, extinguishing the weak, although both have, a priori, the same interest for pure knowledge; we make this choice above all by according preference to impressions of touch, which are the most useful from the practical point of view.

They must be women of independent means. I do not know why it is, but well-off people are seldom as eager about emphasising sectarian differences as those who have to work for small incomes. Perhaps they have more chance of getting interested in other things.

'Really, said Twemlow, emphasising still further his seriousness. 'Has she ever been taught? 'Only by a local teacher up here at Hillport, Leonora told him. 'She ought to have lessons from a first-class master. 'Why? asked Stanway abruptly. 'Well, Twemlow said, 'you never know 'You honestly think her voice is worth cultivating? John demanded, impelled to participate in Twemlow's gravity.

But she begged me to say, sir, that she had formerly the honour of being acquainted with Miss Dorrit. The lady said, sir, the youngest Miss Dorrit. Mr Dorrit knitted his brows and rejoined, after a moment or two, 'Inform Mrs Finching, sir, emphasising the name as if the innocent man were solely responsible for it, 'that she can come up.

"Go back to bed like a dear fellow," he pleaded, "and your sheep will turn up all right in the morning." "I daresay," said Bertie gloomily, "without their tails. Nice fool I shall look with a lot of Manx sheep." And by way of emphasising his annoyance at the prospect he sent Waldo's pillows flying to the top of the wardrobe.

Thus the fact of religion becomes a perpetual task, and leads to the highest activity. Eucken speaks of two types of religion Universal and Characteristic Religion. The line of division between them is not easy to draw, but the distinction gives an opportunity for emphasising again the essential elements of true religion.

"The Anarchist must be free: he hates laws and authority" all three traits unite in one; but Hamon's investigations completely confirm our assertion, that Anarchism is principally an emphasising of the sentiment of individuality and freedom, and cannot be explained sufficiently perhaps not at all by mere pauperism; in other words, Anarchism is not an economic but a political question.

Slavery was always at base an economic question and was now awaiting some national economic issue before it would manifest its ugly self. The emancipation plans which had been adopted by the Northern States were emphasising slavery as a sectional issue. It would make even more difficult the task of balancing the two sections.

At last, when all was ready, Edward issued an appeal to his subjects, protesting the purity of his motives, and emphasising the inexorable necessity under which he was forced to play the tyrant in the interests of the whole realm. By the beginning of August such barons as were willing to go to Flanders began to assemble in arms at London.

Not even the strongest prejudice in favour of underrating the wealth and population of early England, a prejudice which has for it objects the emphasising of our modern perfection, would admit so ludicrous a conclusion. But while we may be perfectly certain that the population of Wallingford was far larger than this minimum, to obtain a maximum is not so easy.
