A TRICK OF MEMORY.

Memory is one Of the most useful
and least trustworthy Of our faculties.
Il mind it weel, but | hae ma doots o
ma mind" said a canny Scotchman in
the witness box. A wholesome charity
for the mistakes Of others was learned
by certain woman from her own ex-
perience. She was about to cross the
continent for a three months visit.
On the day of her departure she went
to the safety deposit vault where she
kept her valuables, and said to the
manager that she wanted to take her
box, with its contents, to her lawyer 5
office for an hour. Could he arrange
that for her? The manager assented,
and wrapped the box in newspaper,
that 1t might make an inconspicuous
bundle.
The day passed and the woman did
not return. The next morning, inquiry
revealed the fact that she had gone on
her journey. The manager was curious
enough to ask her lawyer If he knew
anything about the box,
"She left here intending to take 1t
directly to you," said the lawyer.
That was enough to justify tele-
gram, as soon az the woman had reach
ed her destination, six days later. Tel
egram: where did you put your safe
ty deposit box?" Answer: "In the
vault where it belonged" Telegram
1T is not there. Return at once"
Another week passed in wretched
suspense for everyone concerned. When
the woman arrived, she was In a state
of nervous rage, and ready to accuse
the officials Of every crime in the cal
endar She declared she had driven
straight from her lawyer to the vault.
The manager had himself let her in,
and talked with her. Her story was
complete in all It's details. But the
The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1908-07-17

records Of the deposit company did not
substantiate 1t. That cast doubt enough
on it so that it seemed worth while
to look up the cabman who had driven
the woman on that fateful day.
He was found. He remembered thc
circumstance well.
Had he any recollection of stopping
anywhere else? Scratching his grizzled
head, he slowly retraced the course,
and then said, "Why, yes We stopped
at the bakeshop on the corner OF 3D.
street, and you went in"
Here was the clew. A hasty visit to
the bakery revealed the newspaper bun
die tucked away on high shelf, with
it's precious contents undisturbed.
There it had stood for fortnight,
while woman and half-dozen men
were staying awake by night and fret
ting by day, accusing each other of
lying and stealing, all because one
woman's intention got ahead of her
performance and imprinted lie on
the tablets of her memory.-Youth,s
Companion.

his arm down to their newborn babe (;
he remembered how he had looked for
ward to the time when she should be
up and about again; he remembered
that terrible call in the darkness OF the
night, when Amelia Ann had rushed
In to him, telling him to come at once.
He had gone almost as she spoke. He
was only just in time, As he looked at
her, he understood that Sanle was
leaving him. She was past moving,
past speaking, Her eyes had implored
him. He had understood. He had re-
turned thanks from that day to this
that he had understood. Slowly, dis
tinctly, he had promised to be mother
as we'll as father to their child.
Now, as the wheels revolved about
him, as the great cranks rose ana fell
methodically, as the belts ran swiftly
over the pulleys, he was appealing, In
his mind, TO that wife who had left
him.

The busiest little railroad IN the world is the Panama

roads whose line is ten times the length.
The history of the construction Of this road is too
well known to bear repetition. Through almost I'M

become the busiest little railroad in the world 1t is
familiar saying that for every tie laid upon the
bed Of this road human life sacrificed.
Now this road is changing Its entire route and road
bed with the exception Of few miles This is due to
the fact of it being the wrong side of the canal and
would have to it many times when water is turned
into 1t Its present route to remain. Then again
many bridges would have to be built upon soil whose
soldlty not adapted to bridge building of substantial
nature. Lastly, the present road bed is land which
must be excavated for the canal.

not be great as in the old road construction yet

miles of 1t are being built upon huge piles through the

encountered on the route may be drawn from the
fact that the largest railroad embankment in the world

Standing there in the middle of the
mill yard, with the roar of the ma
chinery about him, with the great
chimney belchlng out clouds Of smoke,
with the sharp cry Of the foremen's
voices as they issued orders, and the
changing of the gate bell that heralded
a team or a wagon demanding admit
tance, Zick carefully went over each
minute of the last twentyfour hours.
On Saturday no one but he and Rube
had been In the little house In the long
row of mill cottages, for Amelia Ann,

"No," decided old Zick Godfrey,
thrusting his powerful fingers through
his grlzzled locks and addressing any
one In the group, enjoying cheerful
midday meal by the warmth of the
engine house fire of the Hawthorn
mills, who might have leisure from his
own bread and cheese to listen, II do
not hold with new-fangled notions and
new-fangled ways. Not me! Why"
raising his large head, with the white
locks still curling about the open, hon
est brow, 81 am always hearing tell of
folks running about from this place to
that. A change here, another to-mor-
row. 1t has always been good enough
for me to work for one master l came

have been here ever since. And Rube,"
with a smile that softened the rugged
features until they were as tender as
a woman's, "will do the same, I'll be
bound" He had felt measure of
proprIetorshlp In the office and Its
concerns for the last month-that is,
ever since Rube, his only child, the
Benjamin of his old age, had been in
stalled there as Office boy"
Zine lad" continued the old man,
speaking aloud to himself, as he walked
along toward his Job. sharp as they
make 'em, and that good at books and
figures"
zick thrust his hands into his pock-
cts, impelled by wave Of usefulness,
OF exaltaton, They sank down into
emptiness, the old man pulled them
out as though they had been bitten.
In one moment all the Joy, the conf
dence, left his face. 1t was overcast,
troubled. On Saturday night he had
placed what he called his lowance
money for the coming week In his
pocket--and 1t was not there now.
He turned out the pocket. There was
no hole In the lining, He had put the
money into his left-hand pocket, He
remembered particularly, because once
before, about Ave weeks ago, 1t had
been missing, and he had not been able
to recollect Chat tlmel the actual fact
Of his placing II there.
The old mans eyes grew dim. He,
who was as punctual as the clock, for
got the hour, the place awaiting him.
He was visited by terrible suspicion,
which, though he would have given all
