WHEN WE FORGET,

| prospector. who recently spent four
| teen months wandering among the
wilds Of Northern Siberia, says in his
book that when lie met the ship which
his employers had sent 10 hunt him up
he addressed the captain in Russian.
| and was reminded that the gentleman
spoke English. Vanderlip says it may
seem Incredible but it is true, that for
q few moments he was utterly unable
| to converse with the captain in his own
native tongue. He had not used Il
word OF English i'll conversation for
fourteen months, and, being i'll low

the language Of the natives with whom
he had lived and Travelled. 1t was a
week before he could talk good straight
English again.
There are numerous examples OF the
fact that a person may become very
rusty in the use Of his native tongue il
for long time he has had no CONVEX
sational use of it. This was illustrated
once by man whose fame had filed
the world. 1t was on the evening that
David Livingstone first stood on the
platform Of Exeter Hall. His pronun-
citation was peculiar and his speech
broken. He seemed to grope for words.
After few sentences he paused to beg
the indulgence OF his auditors. He
asked them to remember that for siy-
teen years he had not spoken English
to living soul. and that he had almost
forgotten how to use 1t.
A few may recall the instance of all
illiterate British sailor who entirely
forgot English He was a castaway
among the Solomon Islanders. and had
lived with them perhaps thirty years
before an English vessel found him.
He had been completely reduced to the
level Of the natives. His mental facul-
ties were evidently somewhat i'm
paired. This may have facilitated the
utter failure Of his memory as far as
English was concerned, but the fact
that English had once been his only
language enabled him 10 acquire few
hundred words Of it more readily than
he would otherwise have done.
