New York Reporter*« Head Which la
Heller Thau a Note-Book.
Ho sitki:
“It is w< rth while to pause a mo

“I Iwg your pardon," was the reply,
••and I lliink I ought to know."
• Vt liy should you know any better
than 1 du?” returned the first speaker,
bully.
.
"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

of my life—stone blind.

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

the barn.
But I want ye to look me

“Certainly I do.
