lriuinn a BARGAIN.


The old Yankee skill at driving Il
bargain is not being lost, as a story
in the Boston Herald shows. y wo-
man visitor at a fashionable resort
on the Maine coast last summer
went to the Universalist church in
the place the first Sunday morning
of her stay and was politely shown
to seat. There was no hymn book,
however, but the occupant of the
pew behind her reached over and
placed one in her hands. At the
close of the service the visitor turn
ed and thanked the person, saving
as she was to attend that church all
summer she would like to buy IL
HYMN book. "Well," said the other
woman, Il guess you can have that
book if You'll give me pair of
black gloves, No. =" Very well"
said the visitor. The next day she
went to Portsmouth, purchased the
No. : black gloves for $50 and
duly received the use of the hymnaI
in exchange for them on the follow
ing Sunday.

GOOD AND BAD MEMORIES.
Why Persons Forget Some Things and
Remember Others.

Good memory is a subject regard
ing which a good deal of nonsense
is habitually talked. We often hear
people say that they have good
memory for certain things, but a
bad one for other things. This | be-
lieve to be a delusion. A mans
memory may be good or it may be
bad, but it cannot well be good for
one thing and bad for another thing.
1t might as well be said that a bot
tie was good for holding brandy, but
bad for holding whisky. In the case
of feeble intellect all its faculties
will be feeble-memory, judgment
and all the rest-but they will not
be feeble for one purpose and Wig
orous for another purpose. The fact
is that our memory is in itself equal
" powerful or feeble for all pur.
poses, but we remember best those
things which interest us most and
so say that we have good memories
for such things, while We forget
those things which do not interest
us, and we say accordingly that we
have bad memories for those things.
Horace Walpole used to say that his
memory was all retentive as to the
names of persons and of places, but
that it was absolutely impotent in
regard to dates. 1t has been said
of him-by Macaulay, I think-that
he could tell you the name of the
grandaunt of King Ethelwald, but
that he could not tell you whether
she lived in the year 500 or in the
year 1900. The truth was that he
took an interest in names and gene
alogies, but none in dates. Similar
" in his introduction to canine of
Geierstein" Scott aptly says:

to adopt old Beattie of Meiklidale's
answer to his parish minister when
the latter was eulogizing him witn
respect to the same faculty. Ne,

you were to preach to me for a cou-
pie of hours on end | might be un-
able at the close of the discourse to
remember one word of it, Perhaps
there are few men whose memory
serves them with equal fidelity as to
many different classes Of subjects,
but | am sorry to say that while
mine has rarely failed me as to any
snatch of verse or trait Of charac-
ter that had once interested my
fancy it has generally been Il fraiI
support not only as to names and
dates and other minute tcchnlcaIl-
ties of history. but as to many more
important things
No, it is pretty certain that we
have not got good memories for this
and bad memories for that in any
other sense than that we remember
that which interests us and forget
that which interests us nOt.-NoteS
