Rare.= }

These words are nearly _alike in meaning_. Other examples: "Choice,
Preference;" "Resolute, Determined;" "Economical, Frugal;" "Ugly,
Ill-looking;" "Insane, Mad;" "Lie, Untruth;" "Reliable, Trustworthy;"
"Air, Atmosphere;" "Resident, Dweller," etc.

=Rare.= } Ex.
=Well done.= }

This pair requires careful notice. "Rare" with reference to "Uncommon"
means _unusual_, _seldom met_, or _unfrequent_; but considered in
reference to "well done," it means _partially cooked_ or _underdone_.
This, then, is a clear case of Exclusion. Other examples: "Men whose
heads do grow beneath their shoulders, and men whose shoulders do grow
beneath their heads;" "Cushion, Mule's Hoof;" "Ungoverned, Henpecked;"
"Bed of Ease, Hornet's Nest;" "Waltz, Breakdown."

=Well done.= } Ex.
=Badly done.= }

A clear case of Exclusion. They are both "done," but one is done "well,"
and the other "badly done," or the opposite of well.

=Badly done.= } Ex.
=Good.= }

A relation is sometimes found between one word and a part of another
word or phrase. Here "Bad" is the opposite of "Good."

=Good.= } In. by G. & S.
=Good Princess.= }

"Good" covers all cases, whatsoever, of its kind, but "Good Princess" is
a particular kind of species of good things or persons. Examples:
"Snake, Copperhead;" "Spider, Tarantula;" "Horse, Dray horse," etc.

Now carefully read over the eleven words, and _recall_ or ascertain the
relations between them:

Fieldhand.
Millionnaire.
Pauper.
Wealth.
Commonwealth.
Uncommon.
Rare.
Well done.
Badly done.
Good.
Good Princess.

When you have _carefully realised the relations_ between these words,
lay aside the lesson and recall the entire series from memory,
proceeding from Fieldhand to Good Princess, and back from Good Princess
to Fieldhand. Do this five times--_each time from memory and more
rapidly than before_.

Again, repeat from memory, at least five times, the series from Building
to Good Princess, and back from Good Princess to Building, reciting as
fast as possible each time.

THIRD AND LAST LAW OF MEMORY.

=Good Princess.= } In. & Con.
=Pocahontas.= }

A proper name as such has little meaning. It is usually a mere _sound_
to which the person that bears it answers as the dog responds to the
name "Carlo." It is a sound which we call a name, and which we apply to
one person to di
