Mr.. BmersOn's Memory.

One evening, when Ralph Waldo
Emerson was engaged in preparing his
new lecture, Mrs. Emerson, who had at
that momen fiattened her finger while
irving to drive a nail with the smooth
ing iron, thrust her head into his study
and said:
"See here, sir / want you to drop that
everlasting pen Of yours, for a minute
or two, at least, and go down to the
grocery and get a mackerel for break
fast.n
"AIy dear" replied Mr.. Emerson,
looking up from his work; "my dear,
can't you go? You see Im billed in a
dozen places to deliver this lecture on
Memory and il isn't half finished
DAnd that's what you call your infer
nal lecture, is il ?" says Mrs. Emerson,
sharply. "a nice party you are TO de-
liver a lecture on Memory
"And why, my love ?' said Mr..
Emerson, meekly.
"Nou never 90 out Of the house that
you don't forget to put on your hat or
your boots, aud you never take letter
Of mine to mail that you don't carry in
your pocket six mouths or a year unless
find il sooner. During the past thirty
days you have carried out Of this house
and forgot TO bring back no less than
seventy-fye or eighty umbrellas. And
you know yourself that the last time
you went 10 church you took out your
false teeth, because, as you said, they
hurt your cOrns, aud came away
and left them I'm the seat. l say
you're a nice man to talk to a cul-
tured audience on Memory and il
you don't trot right of to the grocery
! I'll expose you before you're twenty-foul
hours older"
Mr.. Emerson started on a jump fol
the grocery, and when he got there h'
couldn't for the life OF him recollec
what he had come for.

incumbent, J. 3. Fast has proved him
self to be fully capable of filling the

Under the head of announcements
appears that of Mr.. T. s. Slower for
county clerk, subject to the Republican
Convention. 1t is hardly necessary for
US to more than call attention to the
announcement, As it is probable that he
will be nominated by reclamation and
be elected by the largest majority of any
one on the ticket. The opposition will
60 through the form of nominating some
weak sister, who will be mercilessly
slaughtered by Democrats as we'll as
Republicans. As Slower has made the
best county clerk We have ever had he
will be supported by men of all parties
who desire honest and capable manage
ment of the county's affairs.
