A CURIOUS CASE OF MEMO
RY POWER

An American correspon dent Of Ma
tire tells a curious story of an Ameri-
can waiter at the New York Fifth
Avenue Hotel, who can take charge
of 500 hats at once, and always return
the right hat to the owner, though
mostof the five hundred owners. and OF
course most of their hats, are COM
pletely strange to him. This waiter
says that he "forms a mental picture
of the owners face inside the hat, and
that on looking at any hat, the wear
er's face is instantly brought before
his minds eye" Here, then,-if the
account be accurate,-is another a
of a memory indefinitely strengthened
by a power of visualising Impressions
which most men never ,visualise at
all. This man visualises hats with
faces under them as great chess-piay-
ers who play without the board visua-
lise the pieces set in particular squares ;
only this is a more remarkable exer-
else of the same power, since five
hundred hats must contain many nesr-
ly exact copies Of each other, while
none of the. sixty-tour squares on q
chess-board can, be confused togeth or
al. all, byIany oneIwho can makehhn-
self any accurate picture of them

American mothers have acquir-
ed no little reputation abroad for
skill and energy in connubial
management ON behalf of their
daughters. They are not general
ly, we imagine, more inclinded to
management OF this sort than
mothers of other nationalities !;
but some of them display so re-
markable talent for settling their
girls advantageously, that they
have made name for their en-
tire tribe. A Paris newspaper
gives a recent instance of the great
success of an American mamma of
the peculiar order. Her elder
daughter had sailed from New
York with some friends for a tour
to Europe, and, after doing the
Continent, had returned to the
French capital for several months
Of rest and pleasuring. Attractive
anc clever she had many suitor5,
some more, some less desirable.
She could not marry them all. so
she adroitly reduced the number
to two-the best of the lot, of
course. THEN she wrote the fact
TO her mamma, adding that they
were 30 handsome, agreeable, well
connected, and rich, that she could
not decide between them. and
closed with the question, what
shall | do ?" Ten days later she
received cablegram from mann
ma, Il sail tomorrow. Hold both
till | come" The next Transat-
lantique.steamer carried Mrs.
with ner young daughter, turned
Is, and Just out school. On arri-
val she Immediately took the
helm of affairs, and steered so deft-
ly through the dangerous waters,
that in few weeks she had reach
ed port with all the colors flying.
To drop metaphor, she attended
the wedding OF the two daughters
at the American chapel the same
morning. After due examination,
she decided neither of the nice
fellows should go out of the FAM
lily.

Many women, says Harriet B.
stowe, suppose that they love
their husbands, when uniortunate-
ly. they have not the beginning
of an idea what love Is. Let me
explain it to you my dear lady.
Loving to be admired by q man,
loving to be petted by him, loving
to be caressed by him, and loving
to be praised by him, is not low
ing man. All these may be
when woman has no power Of
loving at all-they may all be
simple because she loves herself,
and loves to be fiattered, praised,
caressed, coaxed-a5 a cat likes to
be coaxed, and stroked, and fed
with cream, and have warm
corner.
But all this Is not love. 1t may
exist, to be sure, where there is
love; 1t generally does. But it
may also exist where there is no
love. Love my dear ladies, Is
self-sacl lfice 1t Is a life out OF self
and in another. It's very essence
is the prefering of the comfort, the
ease, the wishes of another TO
ones own, for the love we bear
them. Love IL giving, and re-
ceiving. Love Is not sheet of
blotting paper or sponge, suck
ing in everything to itself; it is an
outspringing fountain, giving
from itself. Loves motto has
been dropped In this world as q
chance gem of great price by the
lovliest, the fairest, the purest, the
strongest of lovers that ever trod
this mortal earth, of whom 1t Is
recorded that He said: 1T Ia
more blessed to give than TO re-
ceive." Now, in love there are
ten receivers to one giver. There
are ten persons In this world who
like to be loved. and love, where
there is one who knows how to
love.
