DO People Ever Forge, Any,bfo-,

The brain of mankind has been de.
fined as kind of phonographic
cylinder, which retains Impressions
made upon it through the medium of
the senses, particularly through the
eyes and ears. If this be true, mem
DRY must depend for its intensity or
retentive qualities upon the degree OF
observation with which the record is
made.
Nor Is this all. If memory's record
is kept in thu shape of indentations
upon the folds of the brain matter
are they ever entirely eliaced? In
other words, do we ever really forget
anything? May it not be that the
inner depths OF the brain memory
nave stored up recollections of things
which are never again purposely turned
to, perhaps, but which instantly spring
into being and flash through the mind
whenever We hear or see something
which recalls them?
There are several well known men.
tai phenomena which strengthen this
theory. We know that memory often
hrightens during the last moments OF
life, and there are cases on record
where Germans, French, SpaniGrda
and others, who, falling i'll in this
country years alter having entirely
forg often their native languages, re-
covered and used them upon their
death beds.
There is a theory that in all such
cases the brain folds have relaxed,
Just as do the muscles and cords of the
limbs and body, and that by SO doing
they expose the minds monitor in
donations (recollections), which were
long since folded up and put away
as material that could not be Of any
particular use. Family Doctor.

Abnnl TcNaS Geose.

81 have been having goo deal OF
trouble lately with the birds on my
goose ranch, said Colonel Stitt- Floyd,
of Wharton, Texas, to Star reporter.
81 had an order. for thousand
dozen goose eggs, and my troubles all
arose in trying to fill that order. 1t
is the first time / ever attempted to
market any eggs, always heretofore
relying on the sale of feathers and 1.-Two
birds for my profit.
''This is the laying and Matching
season with us, and | thought | would
have no trouble to get eggs enough TO
fill the order. Now, II hen, You know,
will let you rob her nest right along,
Just so YOU leave one egg. 1t is sup.
posed that hen has no idea Whatever
of numbers. But this is not true of
Madame Goose, as i found out to my
sorrow.
"Ihe first two or three days we
secured big batch of fresh eggs, but
after that the find began TO dwindle
down so fast that | determined to
make u personal investigation. I
went down to the river bottom next

which were not sitting had 'hockcd'
and were rowing about feeding, just as
if they never expected to lay anoth er

down and began to hiss at me.
at was a clear case of strike, and /
was at loss to know how to settle the
trouble. tried putting half dozen
porcelain eggs in each nest, but it
would not work. The geese came up,
eyed them solemnly and walked of.
Then, in despair, told the boys to
put the eggs we had gathered back
and see if that would break the strike.
"Well, sir, inside of two hous after
the eggs were returned every goose
was back on her nest, AMI for the next
four or five days there were more eggs

unknown Region oil Ontario.

VI Ontarlo'S area, estimated ut 200,
600 square miles, 100, 900 square miles
are IN an unknown region, only the
eiges OF which have been explored.
This is the territory known as the Hin
terland OF Ontario. 1t lies between
Lakes Huron and Superior to the
south and the Albany River and St.
james Bay TO the north. In this vast
area is the Height of Land, which
separates waters flowing to Hudson
bny from the streams emptine into
the st. Lawrence and the lakes. North
OF the Height is what is called the
hudson Bay slope, consisting of about
$4,000 square miles. This slope NAV
he described rs an unknown land.
The Height of Land is not ridge of
hills, but Is level plateau some 1909
or 1900 feet above the sea. "The
scenery" says n surveyors report.
Though diversified by hundreds OF
streams and rivers and thousands OF
lakes and innumerable crags and hills
of rock, is certainly lacking in that
nobility and lGrgeness of view which
only the presence of lofty mountains
can bestow." OF tho rivers flowing
north from this slope, the Albany is
the most important, being about 475
miles long, and navigable during the
season of high water for go miles.
OF the short slopes south of the Height
of Land, in which are situated tie set.
Elements of North Bay, Sturgeon Falls
and Sudbury, there is definite and
general knowledge, but the whole ter
ritory sloping north remains unex.
plored.
The Hinterland is Ontario's reserve.
Much valuable timber in this region
is destroyed by fires that sweep south
of the watershed. Pine, spruce, tama
rack, poplar and cedar are varieties
of wood existing in abundance south
of the Hudson Bay slope. Here, too,
are valuable Minerals, but the treas.
ures hidden in the region north OF the
plateau aud the resources of the plain
itself await the searching of some in
trepid explorer. The Hinterland will
reward the eager discoverer, and when
he has exhausted that territory the
regions OF the great Northwest remain
unsuryeyed. - Winnipeg (Manitoba)

Here is q story, although Tor GER
tain reasons tho name of the persons
referred TO below cannot be given: A
prominent business man i'm Atchison
has kept 500 in gold on his person
for over forty year,, the purpose OF
which is TO bear his funeral expenses.
Ho has notified the undertakcrs in
Atchison where the money can be
found in case of his death.
Although the money is apparently
kept in hlspoeket, it cannot be fonnd
after he has put it away. He can show
the money, and then, presto it is
gone, and no amount OF searching can
find IT.. He has had tho money so LONG
that five times the amount would not
induce him 90 part with it. He left
home pcnniless, aud the money was
originally hept for n rainy day. Bv
constant industry he has become
wealthy, and is one of Atohison's best
citizens, Notwithstanding few eccen
tricities.
The money he has kept so long, il
loaned out with compound interest.
would now amount to about $4,000. 80.
