Many people complain of having a bad memory, aa If it were semething they could not help, like a headache, or Home similar ailment; yet even that can be helped nowadays by the appli cation of a little common sense. After all, there is no reason why anybody should have a bad memory. I t l s mere ly a matter of training and is, more over, a matter In which it is never too late to attend to its training. For grown-ups many methods are advo cated, all of them, no doubt, based on the principle of mental concentration. In a young child the faculty can be cultivated by making the child de scribe everything it has seen In Its morning walk, taking care that no fact is exaggerated, but that strict atten tion is paid to truth in every detail. In the matter of memorising it is an excellent plan to let the child learn one line of poetry a day, which it should repeat the following morning, and at the end of a week it will be able to siy the seven lines. The young brain should not be overloaded with knowledge, but allowed to assimilate a fragment each day. A re V i s i t i n g L i s t s Too L o n g ? Mrs. De Fashion (average society lady making her round of calls owing to av erage society friends)— Is Mrs. VViggins- Van Mortlande at home?

The water escaped from a jar and fell into a receptacle beneath, in which float ed a small oar, which, by its rising on the water, pointed out the hours. A great deal of sympathy is given a preacher because he doesn’t always get his salary. Transfer it to his wife( who works twice as hard, and is not suppos ed to get anything but board and clothes, and a chance to praise the Lord. A New Jersey woman thinks she is entitled to two pensions because she is the widow of one soldier and the grass widow of another. Of course, no girl really wants to mar She ouly yields to some poor man's solicitations to help make his life misera ble because she feels sorry for him. ly , The baunna is a perfect food.

H lT Y I am compelled by a sense of gratitude to tell you the great good your remedy has done me in acaseof Contagious Blood Poison. Among other symptoms I was se verely afflicted with Rheumatism, and got almost past going. The disease got a firm hold upon my system; my blood was thor oughly poisoned with the virus. I lost iu weight, was run down, had sore throat, eruptions, splotches and other evidences of the disease. I was truly in a bad shape when I began the use of S. S. S., but the persistent use of it brought me out of my trouble safe and sound, and I have the courage to publicly testify to the virtues of your great blood remedy, S. S. S., and to recommend it to all blood-poison suffer ers, sincerely believing if it is taken ac cording to directions, and given a fair trial, it will thoroughly eliminate every particle of the virus.
