The Location OF Memory.

The memory remains intact and in
perfect working order in cases where
the left side of the brain is badly dis
eased, or even if portions of it have
been removed. From this the natural
inference is that the right side of the
brain is the seat Of that most remark
able faculty. Lieutenant Brady, who
lost portion Of the right side of the
brain from a gunshot wound while in
Assam, where two-thirds of the Off
cials are negroes, suffered remarka-
bic lapse of memory. After he had
fully recovered he knew and could
call by name all his white associates,
but the negroes, whom he formerly
knew as well as the whites, were per-
feet strangers to him.

There was pause for a few mo-

moment of repugnance, which she
conquered with heroic will, she put

understand her better the day they
told her of her husbands sin; that he
had, unknown to her, been keeping
up another establishment in distant
city, and was deliberately wronging,
not only her, but another woman and
nameleSS babe.
Size resented it at first, as any sem
sible, strong-minded woman would,
and called for proof, but when they
crowded letters, pictures, bills and
papers into her hands she went from
their presence like one dazed in brain
and almost beside herself with sorrow.
When she was alone she went over
and oVey tls horrible statements of
these supplemented, tattling neigh
borS, and gradually, through the con-
fusion Of agonizing pain, the light of
calmer reason penetrated.
He had deceived her, then, all these
years, these long, happy years that
she had tended the house and basked
in the sunshine of his divided affec-
ton. She had trusted him implicitly,
and his frequent journeys from home
had been satisfactorily explained by
the necessities of growing business.
But he had deceived her all the
time, he had lied in her ears and
smiled, oh, how tenderIy, in her eyes
during ali that period of ignoble &C
ton.
Now he was safe in jail-they told
her that, these gossips-and the other
woman he had so cruelty wronged was
lying, cold and silent, in her casket,
with her infant folded closely to her
breast He had killed her, they said,
but no one knew the circumstances,
as the whole case rested on the sim
pie fact that he had been with her
the evening before and was the last
person seen in her living presence.
When this came to her mind Grace
started almost involu ntarily, to get
her hat and shawl. She must go to
him, of course; she was his wife, her
place was at his side, and it was her
duty to effect his release from this
terrible position of disgrace and
misery.
Half way across the room she sud
denly recollected herself. He was
her husband, yes, the ring on her
finger, the certificate in the bible told
her that; but why should she go to
him now when he had wronged her
to the extent that was past all human
forgiveness?
She looked at one of the pictures in
her hand. 1t was beautiful picture,
the likeness of fair young girl, and
as she looked her eyes filled with
tears and her heart seemed paining
her worse than ever.
Il suppose l ought to hate you,
she murmured sorrowtully, but the
face of the young girl only smiled
back at her in merry way, and the
tears rolled faster down her cheeks as
she laid it carefully among her
treasures.
She was my sister in shame" she
said bitterly. IF I have been
wronged, so has she. If she has suf-
fered, so shall |, but some day, when
we meet in heaven, a bond of love
and tender sympathy will make us
understand each other"
Then she raised the infants picture
to her lips, and storm of heavy, bit.

Some Differences About Observance OF
Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is legal holiday in
the United States. 1t is set apart as
day upon which all the people may
join in returning thanks to Almighty
God for the blessings of the year. All
the states do not join with the ma
tional government in the thanksgiv-
ing. Some states in the south and
west though recognizing the day in
spirit set apart for observance, some
other day than that designated in
the presidential proclamation. In
1893 the state of Oregon had two sepa-
rate days for Thanksgiving, the gov
ernor refusing to observe the presi-
dental proclamation sent from Wash
ington- Those opposed TO the gov
ernor's course celebrated the national
holiday while those loyal to the gov
ernor gave thanks on the day set
apart by him.

Thanksgiving May Have Originated with

The best authority we have on the
subject says that the custom Of
Thanksgiving originated with Moses
A writer in an English encyclopaedia,
however, says that it is quite probable
that the custom antedates the deliver

were accustomed to celebrate
plenteous harvests, but when famine
came there was no day of thanksgiv-

Christian era that the custom assumed
a national character. The first ma
