The larger the number of orders the greater will be the amount of additional matter which will be published.

B. Perry deals more generally with his attitude in philosophy and shows how "pragmatism" has been with him a matter both of temperament and of deliberate theory; and Professor Neilson, bringing a hearty tribute from another department of the Faculty, writes with discrimination of Professor James as a lecturer and author.
