Remarkable Memories.

There was Corsican boy who could
rehearse 10000 words, whether sense
or nonsense, as they were dictated and
then repeat them in the reversed order
without making single mistake. A
physician about sixty years ago could
repeat the whole Of Paradise Lost
without making a single mistake, al

remember the first line and last line
Of every page Of the particular edition
which he had been accustomed to read
before he became blind.-Spare Mo
ments.
