AND COMMENTS A quarry miner of Northumberland, Northumberland, England, has focused attention attention on himself of late by ; reason of his prodigious memory. This singular man appears to possess a mind similar to a phonograph record. record. He can repeat, for example, long lists of words both "'backward and forward after ih°y have been read out to him once only ; he can. reproduce, after a single hearing, as many as half a dozen pages of a book; he recently won a, large wager by glancing through a pamphlet pamphlet of coster songs and reeling them off without an error, though the reading occupied twenty minutes. minutes. 77-- " ' T ' ' ' GRAND TRUNK KSSKÎ Drink Water To Be Boiled. /•■To-, remain young, drink water ---pure and soft water/ , So says a famous physician. . "Age," he says, "is dryness and .ossification/' . Diffèrent authorities give different different amounts of water as the proper proper ones to drink,-but no hard and fast set of rules on this subject can be laid down. Drink a little -more water in the course of the day than you are in the habit of drinking; that is a good rule for the begin- nei\. Gradually .increase the amount until every day you are drinking from three pints to two quarts of--water. . . ' There is a difference of opinion as to the best time tp drink water. -Some physicians and dieticians say not to-drink it with" the meals, and some say that it is needed then. The only way to find out whether it agrees with you at mealtimes is to try drinking it "then. If you have indigestion after -meals, try eating without drinking and drink between meals. A glassful of water as soon as you waken in the morning _ is a good thing. Another at bedtime is good. ; ; .; If clear water is unpleasant" to you, and it is to some persons, try drinking it with a little lemon juice, without sugar, squeezed into it. The lemon juice gives it some character character and taste. This is not lemonade, lemonade, however, - of the" sweet-, - un- flavored sort. This sweet . lemonade lemonade does not-take the place of water. water. Neither does milk, which is a food int itself, and : which really does not contain such a large percentage percentage of water as asparagus does ; and neither do the usual, beverages, beverages, coffee, tea and chocolate. They are either stimulants or food drinks, and in. no way supply the' part which water should take.7 Such a prodigy as this, miner is only a trifle less impressive than the lightning calculator who can extract the cube root Tpf 678,954,- 367,935 in his head, and he serves as an excuse for the London Standard Standard to moralize a bit on the decay of memory. Only among the relatively relatively illiterate, says the Standard, are such : memories likely to be found to-day ; unless people are insulated insulated somehow against the strong current of contemporary print, they rely on "memory .very little. . In the mediaeval days, on the contrary, you might reasonably expect to encounter encounter a man who could unburden his mind of thousands of lines of Vergil or. pages of Tacitus with as great facility as a magician pulls rabbits from a hat.

WÊs CANADIAN NORTHERN ONTARIO RAILWAY Nervous Habits/ It is not ait all rare to see a person, person, especially an adolescent, making making movement, rapid, sudden, arid spasmodic, repeated from time to time; ÿet not due to any definite cause.. These movements are known as "tics." If such a movement be carefully analysed ' it will 7 generally be found to have had a cause originally. originally. Thus a person with- an error of refraction of the eyes may "develop "develop a, habit of blinking, nut if this error be corrected by glasses, and yet this . blinking persist, . a false habit has been set up or, to put it another way, a, tic has .been developed. ■Similarly an uncomfortably uncomfortably balanced hat may be the beginning of, a jerking movement of the head, and an ill-fitting 'coat may cause a shrugging of the shoulders. When such spasmodic actions. are confined to a small group of muscles, as in blinking or sniffing, ' they are " usually called simple tics or habit spasms. Heredity, Heredity, mimicry and a nervous temperament temperament are often responsible for them, and tics of slight severity may be due to overwork or to a condition of 7, general debility. These will disappear when the general general health improves. Where this kind of a habit has become firmly established the only way to cure it is toi educate the higher nervous centres to control the movements. This form of treatment, together with "attention to the general health, will generally soon prove effectual. effectual.

Miss Muffitt had recently joined the "Band of Sisters for Befriending Befriending Burglars, " and was 1 being shown over a-prison-for the first time. " -• One prisoner, evidently a man of education, interested her more than the others. He rose and bowed to her when she entered his cell apologizing apologizing for the poorness of his apartment, v . i Miss Muffitt 'could not help wondering wondering how this refined man came wHhin the clutches of the law. In fact, as she was leaving his cell, she said : "May I ask why you are in this distressing place ?" "Madam," he replied, "I am here for robbery -at a seaside hotel!" . r v .'•"How very interesting 1" said 'Miss Muffitt, '"Were you--er--the proprietor ?" Learning by heart, as. the saying is, used to be a labor of love with our forefathers, if-we are to believe all we hear--which we don't quite. You will read in the biographies of act-ors of the heroic period that, if all the works of Shakespeare had tragically perished in some worldwide worldwide conflagration, such and such a treader of the boards could have sat down if the flames had spared him--and restored Shakespeare word for-word. Literary men like Mac anl ay had a most inconvenient way: of flooring their -opponents in parliament and ' elsewhere/ by apposite apposite quotations frojn the . classics that lacked nothing - whatever in their . fullness. But they tide . has now so completely turned<that, we find Mr. Chesterton making, it , a test of .copious reading to misquote. The place to carry literature is in thé head, he argues; and unless a man misquotes now and theri we may be certain he isn't remembering remembering at all, ' but going back to the original source." Thus Mr. Chesterton Chesterton assumes that . memorizing is more or less of a pretence to-day. MU. TIMOTHY McOHATM 130 Atlantic Ave., Montreal, : .

One hundred lines of Vergil or à page of Cicero 7 used t-o be the regular regular sentence imposed upon luckless luckless youth."kept in" after school.

How dreary became the pastoral view so lovingly lovingly depicted by the poet. The murmur murmur of the sea, among the mountains mountains could hardly compensate for the want' of the. murmur" of the winds among the trees of freedom. One wonders how many who have forgotten even the tale of Dido could yet reel off one hundred lines of choicest Latin--^he last bit of heroic memorizing they ever accomplished accomplished ?

"Well,. you know. the old saying about the fool and his money;" _ "Thanks, I just made a bet with him that you would make that remark remark within five minutes." 7 A WOMAN'S WORK sometimes reduces her strength to the depths of weakness---her devotion to household cares prevents sufficient rest and recreation. Thousands of women "in this condition find Scott's. Emulsion exactly what they, need; it is predigested body-food so medically perfected that every drop yields direct returns in strengthening the organs and tissues and ..in making healthy, life-sustainmg blood. Scott's Emulsion is devoid of alcohol or- any harmful drugs,, and overcomes tiredness and neivousness in a marvelous way. Veils Are Popular. With the coming of autumn and the predicted exclusive reign of the small hat--at least for street wear--the veil comes again; into its own. Some devotees, of course, rèmain true to the veil even- in the; warmer. weather: - Some veil-lovers , try to get around the fact that-veils are ùncoriifortable by wearing a freak vëâf Uike- z the nose - veil, seen at some7 of the. seaside resorts--a little veil .that was 1 if ten from the chin to the nose and tied under the Panama: hat. And,, there are always women ready To take up a fancy, no matter matter how warm the weather, like the mystery ; veils--heavy veils that showed only the eyes through a little clearing of transparent net. , But'" most women, ^devotees . to veils though they be, refuse to wear them in the 'summer. And ■when summer sanctions the wearing wearing of big hats the veil is-forgotten. Veil weather is coming back again in America, and with it a big showing of interesting weaves and designs on* the part of the makers of veils. . Thé most interesting, of the new veils are important. French women, women, it is said, are'not paying much attention to veils this season,; but American women always like them. They- are called "novelties." Like many new things, -this "novelty'"' veiling; is. expensive--partly because because it is ; aliovelty and partly because. because. it is. well made. The mesh I is of rather heavy'cotton threads, 1 woven together to. form lace-like patterns on various sorts of backgrounds. backgrounds. Some of the grounds are of almost almost tulle-like fineness, and some are lined heavily with threads running running parallel to each other, all in one direction,- from end to end of the veiling. :l Some hâve . checked backgrounds, -squared off with heavy threads. -This veiling is made in both black and white. 1 _ - - Thèse .new veils are worn trimly' and snugly; fitted over the ' ha,t brim,,arid are then drawn over the face, slacked a. little over the point of the nose arid chin and pulled in in fords about the neck.

President Joseph Smith, head of the Mormon Church throughout the world, has just made a visit to; Canada, Canada, and while here dedicated the ground for the first Mormon Temple on British soil. The occasion was marked by a civic celebration-in the town of Gardsvon,, Alberta, where the event- occurred. The president came in a private train with his councillors, bishops, and advisors, and spent three days on Canadian soil. - The Mormon people are making rapid gains in Canada. They are the pioneers of Southern Alberta, and own upwards of 200,000 acres of land in this country. Seven years ago the Church purchased one tract of 67,000 âcres, which is being colonized colonized with people from Utah. Jeseph Fielding Smith was born at Far West, Missouri, on the 13th of November, 1838. He was the son of Hyrum" Smith, brother of the original original Joseph- Smith, founder ; of The Mormon Church.

In 1848, when the long trek was made to Utah, the Smith boy, then 8 years of age, drove a team of oxen across the Western plains. Arriving in the Salt Lake Valley, Joseph was nine years old, and became a herd boy of the Mormon cattle.
