Mind A thinking, intelligent being; otherwise called spirit, or soul.

See SOUL. Dr. Watts has given us some admirable thoughts as to the improvement of the mind. "There are five eminent means or methods, " he observes, "whereby the mind is improved in the knowledge of things; and these are, observation, reading, instruction by lectures, conversation, and meditation; which last, in a most peculiar manner, is called study.

See Watts on the Mind, a book which no student should be without.
