MARVELOUS A memory , New York Reporter*« Head Which la Heller Thau a Note-Book. Ho sitki: “It is w< rth while to pause a mo­ ment to consider I he principle in- r lved.

"I have my stenographic notes of the lecture in my hands. You didn’t touch pencil to paper during tho en­ tire evening.” Two reporters employed on rival morning papers were reluming to their offices from a lecture in an up­ town hall. During their journey on the elevated train a dispute arose con­ cerning a certain passage which tho q eaker had used ••That may all be true,” answered die first disputant, “but 1 would rather • nisi my memory than your notes. You lon’t know what was said without re- terring to them. You don’t keep any track of the subject in your mind. You worked mechanically over your note­ book, while I recollect every word he Ipoka.” ••Prove it.” “I will. Open your note-book.” The skeptical reporter did so. “Now follow me closely.” To the amazement of the former, the man with a memory repeated page after page verbatim, not only the lan­ guage but with tho proper emphasis of the lecturer. • Oil! I know how you did it,” ex­ claimed the note-taker. “You have heard the speech before and committed it to memory.” “I nover saw him before to-nigh% and I never heard him read a word of the lecture before I went to the hall.” “Then how did you do it?” ‘•I simply remembered it.” •Oi! You’ve been taking a course at one of the memory schools?” “Yes, it was a memory school, but not one of the kind you refer to, and the course of study was the most pain­ ful you can possibly imagine.” “What was the school?” “The school of bitter experience. I was blind the fi st twenty-two years of my life—stone blind. During that time I had to make my memory d > service, not only for my memorandum pad, but for my text-books as well. 1 bad a naturally quick memory, and this cons!ant straining so developed it that I can easily recollect a whole con­ versation verbatim without a single note. I can’t recollect what I read so well unless I read ¡tout loud, as I was taught to remember through my ears.” “Do all blind men remember so well?” “No, not all. B it memory is one of the faculties which na'ure gives to supply the sense of seeing, and blind men. as a rule, remember far more easily than those who are gifted with all their fac tlt’es. Well, here we are, and next time you may accept my rec­ ollection without asking for proofs.” HE WAS ADMITTED. A Searching Examination Which Called Forth a Hearty Welcome. A horseman dismounted before a lonely dugout in Missouri, and con­ fronting the proprietor of the place asked for accommodations for the night. The farmer surveyed him crit­ ically and said: “Air you selling a cure for hog cholera?” “No, sir; I’m selling nothing.” “Is that so? Well, p’r’aps ye mout roost in the barn ef that’s so. But, say, stranger, yer not takin’ ary subscrip­ tions for the ‘Life of Grant,’ air ye?” “No, sir.” “If that’s the case I mout let ye bunk on the floor of my dugout. But yer not sellin’ ary new-fangled oats, air ye, that'll perjure four bushels to one of ary other kind?” “I have nothing to do with oats, I assure you. ” “Wai, this beats all! I’ll lief to try an’ rig up a cot fer ye to sleep on, an’ I guess I’ll find room fer yer hoss in the cattle shed. But see hyar, stranger, I want a squ.tr deal. Ye won’t spring ary patent revolving churn on us ef we treat ye right, w ill ye?” “I don't know a churn from a water­ wheel.” “Now, this is sing’lar. Ye seem to be a white man, an’ I guess I’ll chuck ye in the spar room n put yer hoss in the barn. But I want ye to look me squar in the eye an’ say that ye haven't ary condition powders to sell; ye don’t want to flash out ary stove polish, er French blackin’, er harness ile. Do ye promise?” “Certainly I do. I’m not an agent for any sort of a trap. In fact I'm out here trying to find and arrest a rascally -dealer in mowing machines who swin­ dled a lot of farmers ^n our neighbor­ hood.” “Stranger, ye’ll sleep In my bed ter­ night, an’ mean’theole woman’ll bunk on the floor.
