What follows is meant for the Uninstructed Reader. The Uninstructed are not the Unintelligent. You will find good natural even peasant intelligences that, knowing nothing of the facts of a given case or of a given branch of Knowledge, will yet, on the facts being laid before them, arrive at surprisingly just conclusions. On the other hand the Instructed are only too often the unintelligent; when they are not unintelligent they are only too often the wilfully self-blinded. They make for safety, just as, a year or so ago certain men made for safety by means of the S.I. W. It is a sad fact that too many perhaps a majority of those who, having been instructed, instruct us in turn, in Literature, do not know what those letters mean. It is a fact sadder still that most of those who know the significance of those majuscules have little if any means of forming judgments as to Literature. They love Books; they pass longish hours in reading; but as is to be awaited the temperaments of the above I nstructed, render their teachings disagreeable in manner and repulsive in matter, to those accustomed to lives passed outside studies lined with frequently unimportant and usually not attractive, Printed Matter.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
