Sir Arthur Iearson, whose death in London was recently announced in cable dispatches, will be remembered chiefly for his labors in behalf of the blind, although his career was notable quite aside fromhe glory into which he transformed his affliction; for Sir Artlmr was stricken with blindness at the age of forty-eighbut not until he had achieved successes which few men attain in a lifetime. The fortune he .built up in his highly successful publishing business he devoted to this V" relief of the sightless. From the time that hlindne first threatened him, seven years ag be had trained himself to do without sight. He prided himself upon his .Complete mastery of the daily details of his life and snffered no one to help him.

'Tie was the son of the Jiev. Arthur 'Cyril Pearson and was born in Wooky near Wells, February 24, 1866. He had four years at a private school and three years at Winchester college. Hig first job, which paid him $500 a year, he obtained in competition" with 3000 others, which Titbit ofgrinning a prize fered for the person submitting the best answers for three months to the questions published in its inquiry. While he was a clerk in the office of Titbits he formed a friendship with Alfred narmsworth, now Lord North-clif- f o, which never weakened, although 'Sir5 Arthur is said to have been his friends chief rival when the latter was , negotiating for the London Times. In 1890 he founded Pearsons Weekly, "which attained immediate success. Within the next, eight years he had established a dozen other magazines, among them Pearsons Magazine,. all of which were thriving and profitable. By thf fnd of 1898 hia magazine had an aggregate circulation of more than t, 3,00000. .

The South Sea island erase waa started by a book which described in the moat luscious language that paradise of eternal summer, of easy living, of few clothes, of no restraints, and ct beautiful native maiden who fell In love with white men on a ght, and kneyr little or nothing about marriage,, The material for this book, It la said, was supplied by a man who had. spent some years in the islands, but the luscious writing waa done by a clever woman who had nkver been to the Islands at all. The book waa quickly followed by other books by the same author, and by others. Boats bound for the South seas began to be packed wl;ti tourists. Then came the! inevitable reaction. Th wanderers found that the South Sea Islands were just about lika Florida, California, or any other winter resort country. They found that instead of lying around and picking up breadfruit whenever they got hungry, they had to pay $12 a dey at tha hotel . Instead of capering nearly naked on coral strands, they had to dress for dinner. Ther weren't nearly enough beautiful native maidens to go around. As for the Climate, it was nice fer a while, but no tropical climate agrees with a white man for very long at a stretch. In a, word, the tourist found that th KarealffiloUEumi(hnfe: dogged him even to the South Sea (elands, and that the books had been mostly fairy tale. So many were the disappointed tourists that a literature poking fun at ths South . Sea islands has sprung into Many magazine articles have been written to that tune, and now a book is out which Is a parody of al othe rbooks that told about the hresppustbos delights of ths South seas.

Of course, what the writers describe, and what the readers hanker after and often go In search of, la not tha South Sea Islands as they really are, but a purely imaginary 'realm which will give play to all of the longlnre which they cannot as t lafy - at hom. These periodic erases about strange faraway Arcadlas are aim-pl- y evidence of the fact that moat men are only half satisfied by the reality and so live largely in their dreams. This craving for some place else is chiefly as revealing the unsatisfied longings of men. The South Sea Island are by no means the only popular never-nevland. The Orient la another one which has a spell of popularity every few It, too, is having one just how. jears. A series cf spectacular plays, purporting to describe i.fe in the Orient, have had a great sucrose.

In there anything strange in their liking for these pictures and books Snd -- plays, which life aa a thing of freedom, adventure and lust? N'oth.ng at all. In each of those worthy citizens is buried a subliminal self that longs for Just those things, and' the preposterous books and pictures give him a sort of vicarious satisfaction. These books and plays and pictures, then, are, above all, a d agnosia .of civilised life In America. They show what it lacks by showing what Hie man who is living It Instinctively craves. And the things which he craves invariably ar less work, less restraint, more adventure, more freedom, and especially more freedom tn the matter of love The instinct cf the average man aa to what la the matter with hit I fe Is prob-ab.- y Most people doubtless do right. work too hard, and above all they work too monotonously They do the same things over and over again until those There is not things become meaningless enough of change and excitement in their lives There Is not enough to feed their Imaginations and develop their emotions Most people, too, are not satisfied In love.

The book he reads, tho pictures and plays he goes tn see nr his confession of longing and aspiration. Where he Is wrong Is in supposing that If he could just go to some faraway place all would be different. Aa a matter of fact, life Is amazingly similar wherever vou go.
