 Cyrus, ThemistocIes, SophOcles
 These instances of retentive memory give plausbility to the possible truth oi others more frequently cited. Pliny tells us that Cyrus the Great knew the names of all his soldiers; and Cicero in his "ne Senectute" says that Themistocles. could call by name the 2D00D citizens of Ath- ems From Cicero, too. we learn some thing of the remarkable memory of So- phocles, who in old age, when Juhlclai proceedings had been instituted to deter mine his mental competency, recited to the judges the Edipus at Colonus to prove his mind was not failing.

 man comes up to a conclusion by tha slow steps of delicate logic. Instinct lively the woman reaches it by a single bound.
 Therefore should you contemplate some important step without having consulted your wife-dont!
 Her intuitive insight may be worth more than your deliberate reasoning.
 Especially is the normal average woman quick to see the right or wrong involved in a proposition. She jumps over subtle distinctions and evasive phrasing and lands on the firm footing of eternal right eousness.
 Ethcally every woman is a seer.
 And especially clear are the eyes of a wife in a9y matter involving the welfare or the good name of her family.
 Make your wife a close confident in all things, and the sequel will prove her wis dom.
 There was Victoria Colonna.
 She is a strong character in the history of her times. Her husband was a friend of the great Charles Y. At one time he husband was offered the crown of Naples if he would join the league against 'Hdfles. lne uldH WAS StronSly teIllpleI He referred the matter to his wife.

ther of international law, like Ben Jon son and Niebuhr, remembered all he had read. Donnellus 'knew the Corpus Juris by heart; Daguesseau could recite yer batim poem of considerable length after hearing 1t read but once, and Leibniz, like Euler, is said to have been able to repeat the whole of the Aeneid Bailey in his "Eulogy of Leibniz,' said: He made extracts from every book he read, and added to them whatever reflections they suggested, after which he laid his manuscript aside and never thought of it more. His memory, which was astonisn- ing in it's powers, did not, as in most men, feel itself dsburthened of the knowledge which he had committed to writing; but on the contrary the exertion of writing seemed to be all that was required to in- print on his memory forever
 Joseph Justus Scalger in his youth was a student of the famous Turnebts. There is tradition that he became dissatisfied with his progress in Greek, and to make more rapid progress he closeted himself with his Homer Then with the aid of | Latin translation he read the whole of the Ilaid and committed it to memory in 21 days. Whether this was an actual cc- cIrrence or not it is certain that his mind was one of great retentiveness. He spoke 13 languages and was one of the most erudite men of the 18th century. CaSdu- bon says of him: There was no subject in which any one could desire, instruction which he was not capable of giving. He read nothing (and what did he not read?) which he did not forthwith remember; there is nothing so obscure or obsolete in any ancient author, Greek Latin or He brew. with regard to which. when n- terpreted he would not at once give a replv. He was at home in the history of all nations and all ages, the success sjons of government, the affairs of the an cient church, the properties. differences and names whether ancient or modern. of animals, plants metals and all natural obiects. he knew accurately. With the situation of places, the boundaries of provinces, and their divisions at different times he was perfectly familiar. He had left untouched none of the severer stu dies or sciences So extensive and nccu- rate was his acouaintance with languages that if during his lifetime he had made but this slnaie requirement 1t would have appeared miraculous Sir William Ham ilton paid the highest possible tribute 10 Scaliger's erudition when he said: ''Tal- ing him all in all, he was the most learned man the world has ever seen."
 The many stories told of Macaulay's al- most portentious memory have been re- lated too often to bear repetition. Not few of them are on seemingly certain nu- thorlty. William H. Prescott, who met
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-12-10

Macaulay about 1850, has told us some interesting things of his memory. I shall mention but one. This was related to Prescott by Henry Hallam, who said that Lord Jeffry had once told him that haVlng ripped up Macaulay in quota ton from Paradise Lost, two days after Macaulay came to him and said, you will nor eaten me again in the Paradise. At winch Jeffrey opened his volume and .O0A hlm up in great many passages at ran dom, in all of which he went on correct " repeating the original. Was it not d -miraculous tour d'esprit? Macaulay does not hesitate to say now that he thinks ne could restore the first six or seven books of the Paradise in case they were lost"
 There is no doubt of the truth of this and many other stories told of Macaulay's memory. He was man of splendid inl- ents. His knowledge of English history was unsurpassed by his contemporaries He was an excellent classical scholar, and had most remarkable miscellaneous Knowledge of literary and historical sub- jects. s--f ssgs
