The queer freaks OF memory are a
constant puzzle to those who study
psychical phenomena. Who has not
been driven to the verge of distraction
by the total inability to recall a name
when an effort was made to do so. and
when the occasion for such remem-
brance was past. had the missing name
flash into the mind apparently OF it's
own volition? The year 1898 is nearing
its close, but how many of us can re-
call readily IN chief incidents of the
last 10 months and say accurately in
what month they occurred? Try IL and
see.
Great minds have wrestled to find an
explanation for the pranks that mem
Dry plays and have had to give up the
effort. In the course of a systematic
attempt TO arrive at some understand
ing with regard TO the wonders of
memory, a very valuable n unique
body OF testimony has been obtained.
