A Memory Test.

A professor of mnemonics had gone
to lecture at or near Canterbury. Att
er the lecture was finished he had to
wait for his London train. It was q
most comfortless day, and he retired
to an inn for shelter and refreshment.
To pass the time he began to exhibit
his feats Of memory to the yokels In
the inn parlor, and one and all were
thunderstruck except the waiter. There
is always one skeptic in every COM
munion, whether of saints or sinners.
Do what he would he could not miti-
gate the acrid smile of acid incredulity
of that glorified potman! In the midst
of one Of his most difficult feats the
whistle sounded Of the "Only train to
London tonightp' and he rushed OF to
catch it. He caught it at the station,
and his reputation caught it in the inn
parlor, for the waiter, coming in with
some ordered refreshments and find
ing him gone, pointed to the corner
where he had been sitting and exclaim.
