FACTS.

Those contemplating trip westward
will certainly do we'll to carefully con-
suit the time tables of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. Its celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest, make it beyond all
controversy the best line west, Colo
nists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure comfort and convenience.
Trains run through without change Of
Jars to Chicago, where direct connection
is made with al leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
hut single change of cars to Iowa,
R,usss, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota.
u.c. No other line can offer such advan-
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-Its
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this, and in the end may lead
to tie saving of much Of both as vel as
money. Above all things do not pur-
chase tickets before having talk OF re.

Curing a Bad Memory.

Your memory is bad, perhaps, but
can tell you two secrets that will cure
the worst memory. One is to read
SUBJECT when you are strongly interest
ed. The other is not only to read, bat
think. When you have read para
graph or page. stop-close the book
and try to remember the ideas on that
page, and not only recall them vaguely
to your mind, but put them into words
and speak them out. Faithfully follow
these two rules and you will have the
golden keys. of knowledge. Besides In
attentive reading, there are other things
injurious to memory. One is the habit
of skimming over newspapers, all in
confused jumble, never to be thought ol
again, thus cultivating q habit OF care
less reading hard to bresk. Another is
the reading of trashy novels. Nothing
is 80 fatal to reading with profit as the
habit OF running through story after
story, and forgetting them as soon as
read. I know gray-hared woman,
lifelong lover Of books, who sadly de-
clared that her mind bad been ruined BY
such reading.
