A YOUNG woman who has for si*
years been engaged In a love
affair with a young man whose
elation la higher than her own,
finds that he la now becoming Indiffer
ent to her and bestowing hls attention*
upon other* In hls own class. She aks
me to tell her how she can forget him.
The flame of love still hums In her
heart-and ehe U very unhappy. She
wishes to know how she can extin
guish 1L
A man writes me and says: *i am
In love with a girl, who. having de-
deceived and lied to me for several
months, has at last- given me proof
that she is unworthy of any man’s love
and respect; but the fact remains that
I at 111 lore her. How can I obliterate
this wasted paasten from my heart and
her from my mind?”
My two correspondents have given
me a difficult problem to solve. As 1
remarked once before In this column,
w© have many professors of memory
In the land, but none of forgetfulness
There are various methods which teach
us how to recollect, but no method
teaches us how to efface unwelcome
memories from the mind.
Destroy Mementos.
Yet there Is a method for those few
who have the determination, the will
power and the perseverance to pursue
It. In the first place, throw away every
memento and token of the person and
experience you desire to forget. If It Is
possible, change your location and go
among new scenes and surround your- *
self with new faces.
Fill every hour with work nnd study.
Take upon yourself new nnd engross
ing duties..Be occupied; employ your
day* so thoroughly that you are phy
sically and mentally fatigued when night
comes. Exercise In the open air as
much as possible and take cold baths
once or twice a day. This will Induce
sleep.
When the fascinating yet unwelcome
memory undertakes to assert Itself turn
Immediately and busy yourself about
some task which requires all your pow
ers of concentration. Interest yourself
In other people’s Uvea. Do what you
can every hour of every day as you
pass along the highway of life to cheer,
encourage and comfort every fellow'
traveler.
If pou can afford the time neces
sary, take up some one line of study

Ltarn to Forget.
Aak the unseen guardian angels, who
are always accessible to our call, to
help you In your efforts to forget, and
never for a single day fall to keep your-
eelf occupied.
Avoid solitude. Surround yourself
with people os much as possible. Do
not talk about your trouble to them:
listen rather to the stories of their
lives. Good listeners are always moro
popular than good talkers.
You will for weeks, perhaps for
month*. Imagine that you are making
no progress In forgetting, yet us time
wear* on you will dlscovet longer and
longer Intervals In which you do not
think of your sorrow: then, again,
when you Imagine you have almost
forgotten It. It will arise suddenly from
Us grave und confront you: but If
you do not ruddle It and entertain It.
It will go back to the tomb, where all
ghosts belong, and If It finds you busy,
active, occupied and anxious. It will
not so trouble you soon again.
Ghosts do not enjoy th* companion
ship of people of that type, but rather
of the dreamer, lost In languorous retro
spection. The science of forgetfulness la
one of the moat difficult to attain. It
cannot be achieved In a moment; It
must be waited and worked for.

The man who rose to greet me with
that fine simplicity of manner,which
wins'friendship on the instant, I knew
for Ho!on II. Borglum. “the prairie
sculptor”—ha w hose genius has caught
and embodied In bronse and marble
the fierce, elemental spirit of the vast
West, and whose work not only ac
cords him a place In the foremost rank
of American sculptors, but gives prom
Ise of universal greatness. Apart from
there facts, extraordinary Interest and
Importance attaches to Mr. Borglum’*
hasty visit to Atlanta, Inasmuch as he
comes to confer with the Qordon statue
commission in regard to the statue of
General John B. Gordon upon which
the sculptor is now at work; ^The un
veiling of the statue will take place In
Atlanta late In June. Instead ot In May
as was at first Intended, and will be
an event In which centers the love and
enthusiasm of thousands of loyal
Southern hearts. 1 say Southern, nnd
yet the event Is of far greater than
sectional Interest, subscriptions for the
statue having been received from ev
ery part of these United States. Ev
ery hero belongs to the world. ”As
you probably know,” said Mr. Borglum.
when asked to tell of hls work on the
Gordon statue, “the first model I sub
mitted w*as rejected by the commission.
This represented General Gordon on
hls horse, rushing Into battle, hls hand
uplifted In commaftd. Onttrr-pedestal
were Confederate soldiers, marching.
Though this was not accepted, I wax
later given the award of the commis
sion. and learned that the preference of
the veterans was a statue which should
represent General Gordon In review' of
hls troops. Accordingly the statue
w hich will be unve tiled In June
represents your great general In review.
The bas reliefs In bronse on the ped
estal are an important feature of the
work. Orta of these is General Gordon
as the ’Man of the 12th of May,* when
in the battle at Spottsylvanla he rush
ed to the front, turned Lee’s horse
aside, and flying In the face of almost
certain death, led the troops. The oth
er bas relief portrays him as gover
nor. senator and peace-maker."
Surely a great subject for a great
artist, epltmtxlng a life which will
shine one of ihe brightest stars In hls-

Seething
hough familiar from boyhood with
the history of the Civil war,” said Mr.
Borglum. ”1 Immediately began to
study minutely Gordon’s career. For
two years and a half, I have continued
to study It. and the troubled era in
which he figured so conspicuously. AmFf'
speaking of this Southern subject re
minds me that the South offers to the
sculptor material as rich and pictur
esque ns any to be found In the West,
or elsewhere on the globe. 1 hope to
do other Southern subjects later.”
Who, I wonder, will be the first- to
carve In stone the epic of our Civil
war; the fierce drama of our Recon
struction period, when the flower of
Southern chivalry lay shattered In the
dust; and the dark shadow of the race

Borglum, Mon and Sculptor. (
When good foreign blood mlxee with j
American, or aaalmllates the beat In '
American life, the result Is often he- :
role. Solon Borglum, born In Ogden, |
Utah, of Danish parents, exemplifies
Ihe truth of the statement. , j
A* a buy and youth he gave little |
promlae. however, of being more than '
a successful ranchman. A timid, quiet
child, with an Imagination more lively
than any one knew, .he waa considered
a failure at school, and at the age of :
fifteen he was permitted by hi* father
tn take charge of a ranch. Until he
wee tw-enly-three he lived the wild, ►
free life of Ihe plain*. One day hi*
brother, who ua, a successful painter,
casually asked. “Why don’t you beconio
•in artist, Solon? You're such a work
er I believe you'd succeed." Strange
ns It may seem, thla chance remark
was the turning point of hls cureer,
and after he left the ranch we find
him atruggllng against poverty In Loa
Angelea and later In Cincinnati, and
IrylnR to learn to paint. T.hr paaalon
for url, which had been latent In him
ao long, waa now fully arouaed and hu
worked Incessantly. It was almost bv
accident that he began to do aoma
modeling and that he discovered sculp
ture to be for him the true medium
of expression.
"That very year." Mr. Borglum told
me. "I won n special award at the
Cincinnati Art Institute, and later a
scholarship Thsn t ael ouljor I'arU. i
But when I got there I said to myself,
‘These people have copied from naturo
and that la what I must do at home.
Why have I come?' And the whole
time I stayed. I struggled hard not to
let my work lose Its stamp of Ameri
can life. That Is what nur artists and
sculptors fall tn prevent. They go to
Europe and become Europeans. They
absorb the mythology and classicism
which In Europe are the true thing,
but which are not true In Apierlca. I
wish I could tell you how deep In mo
Ilea this American Idea, how sacred It
Is to me—the ambition to make my
work typically American, to let It ex
press the democracy, the splendid
youth, the crudeness, too. If you will,
of my native country. 8uch ambition
in 'us all Is ihe only basis tor a great
national life."
As we review hie work we see how
faithful he has been to this Ideal.
Wherever hls groups are found, tn the
Salon, In the Louvre In Paris, In the
Metropolitan In New York, In Cincin
nati, Chicago or elsewhere, they ex
press a phase of life typically Ameri
can. He »« In sculpture what Walt
Whitman Is In literature—a force as
elemental, as unselt-conadous, and Ir
resistible as the wind or rain.
Speaking of hla work, some critic
has optly remarked that Inasmuch ns
hls message Is not a personal or eelf-
consclous one It become! the message
of the great West Itself. What changes
hls work will undergo, and whether it
will rise to the full measure of greet-
