Tha Memory Machine.

Amnesia, or loss Of memory, is chiefly
interesting to the psychologists as
throwing some light on the nature OF
memory itself. A perfect act OF mem
DRY consists of three distinct acts
preservation or f1xation Of certain
states Of the nerve cells, reproduction
of these and, perhaps most remarkable
of all, recognition of them as reproduc-
lions In their relations. Morbid states
of the memory may refer to any OF
these phases of an act which Is as
marvellous as anything In nature.
There are about 3,O0o,Ooo,00o nerve
cells in the surface Of the human
brain. They never die in health, and
they are never replaced or added to.
This is memory's machine.

Basketball seems to have found
much favor among the spirting ele-
