Cultivate Memory.

1t is an almost pathetic fact that
our identity is conditioned on our
memory. We are essentially what we
remember. Our experiences build our
personality and our knowledge of these
experiences lies absolutely in our
recollections. II Is obvious, then, that
any individuals quality of life de-
ponds, in great measure, on his mem
DRY. A man may eat and sleep, work
and play, and through it all have
hardly more understanding than do
the beasts. The memories of such a
one will be vague confused, blur on
the tablets of the mind.
It must be remembered that the
average brain will readily bear all
needful burdens imposed upon it and
that the memory will do its full duty,
If given 4 flair chance.

NOT HARMED BY CITY LIFE
Tests Show Country Boy Is Not Bet
ter Off Than His Cousin
of the Town.

That the country boy is better off
physically than the city youngster is
accented almost as q dogma. This,
though, is not borne out by a series of
comparisons made from army statis-
tics by Prof. O. c. CHASER of the Uni
versity of Michigan.
Selection was made of typical set
of cities of 10000 to 100000 popula-
ton. With no large immigrant ele-
ment, and distributed over ten differ
ent states, and corresponding set OF
counties of the same total size, To-
Gated in the same states and contain
ing no city of 10000 the total number
of reglstrants in the two areas be-
ing 315,000. The result of the COM
parison was as follows: The reject
ed were 2S.47 per cent of the city boys
and 2796 per cent of the country
boys. The result, therefore, was prac-
tically tie, showing that the county
boy does not possess greater de-
gree of the physical souniness nee
essary for his acceptance as a soldier.
1t might have been thought, COM
ments the Journal of Heredity, that, on
the whole, the advantages OF fresher
air and more simple routine would
have shown itself in this test and that
the country boys would have won.
What these figures show is this: That
there are great many diverse and
complex factors back of our present
civilization, our supposedly artificial,
commercial or city life, and that many
Of these must have been beneficial to
our citizens. Here at least is q def
mite difference Of environment un.
able to show measurable modifica-
ton.

1t was late when Guen arrived. She
had hoped that Mrs. Bascomb would
meet her ut the station, or at least
send down Alma or one of the boys.
They must have received her card on
the noon mail She was tired and dis
pirited after the long trip up from
New York, and it is not conducive to
joy to be left on dingy barren little
platform at AS p. IN. in a wilderness
of hills, with nobody to meet you.
But she knew her way around from
the trip last year, and found a convey
ance at the village store to drive her
up to the Bascombs'. 1t was long,
dark drive of seven miles, but the boy
kept her awake telling her the local
news. Evidently the Bascombs were
making money out of their tent and
shack idea, the way he spoke of them.
'They got seven tents up there
now, army tents, real ones, and had
to put up two board shacks besides"
he related happily. "And the season
amt even begun yet. Folks come up
this time of year outer sentiment, my
mother says. She says they get spring
fever in the city and have to run away
Is that so, Miss Drew?'
Guen laughed. 1t was mostly habit,
she told him. If you had ever been

BascOmb, and Guen recognized even
the turn of his head at that first
glimpse.
And he was even telling about her.
how he had met her down in New
York. before he had enlisted, and she
had told him all about this resting
place for tired bodies and spirits.
II used to think often, over on the
other side, that if l was ever lucky
enough to get back l was coming up
here to rest awhile in one of those
tents by the WATERFALL" he said.
Guen looked down at her plate. He
away from her and told him to learn
to be worker and fighter instead of
just dreamer. He was not telling
them, what she had already heard
from their mutual friends-how he had
won his war cross and had returned
with many hOnors.
She had wondered If he would try
to find her, or would only remember
how she had sent him away from her
and told him he was only a drifter.
And now she had found him in her
tent at the edge of the waterfall.
He followed ut her side as she
walked down the lane to the ravine,
and she listened as he talked of his
service abroad, of his trip up to Rest
Awhile farm and of how he had
asked old Mr.. Bascomb to put him in
her tent until she arrived.
II wanted to lie there and listen
to the falling water just as you had
told me you used to-" he said. IL have
thought of that when l was lying hid
den in underbrush, wounded, and In
the hospital, too, and all the way
over.
Il wanted to show you you'd done
some good" He hesitated bOyishly
over his words when they paused be-
fore her tent and looked down at the
falling veil of water in the ravine.
"YOu told me once these were the
waters of healing to you, Guen. Did
you want to keep them all for your
self? Do You think I'd better go
away?"
"Would you go If told you tO?" she
asked teasingly. You did before"
Pa Bascomb was coming along the
lane with pals of fresh well water
for his tenters, as he called them, but
as he caught sight of the two he
turned quickly about and went the
other way.
81 wasn't going to spoil no good in
tentions," he told Mrs. BascOmb with
a chuckle. Like enough after they
get married they'll rent the tent for
two, year after year"

spur Of the Catskills you would surely
come as often as you could. He
stopped ut the two tall white posts
that marked the entrance to the Bas-
comb lane.
Guess it's too late for me to drive
way up there, cause dad don't like
the, horses out so late. There amt
any light up at the house, neither"
ooh, can find my way" Guen said
positively. Bring up nay suitcase and
typewriter the first thing in the morn
ing, won't you, Bonnie? I've only got
a few things in this bag, and | need
the rest
He was right about there being no
light in the farmhouse, and yet it
could only be about half past ten. The
white shapes of the tent colony showed
here and there along the winding lane
and down toward the glen. She had
asked for the same one as last year,
because you caught the sound Of the
waterfall there and the pines over
Swallowed it. 1t was easy TO find, too,
because it stood alone just at the edge
of the ravine. She would just steal
in and not disturb any one until morn
ing.
The flap was down and seemed to be
fastened. She set her handbag down
on the ground and began to tumble

the quick switch of light from flash
light inside the tent.
who's there" called male voice,
and Guen gasped.
Haven't you make mistaken" she
faltered. "This is my tent"
II was under the impression it was
mine," came the answer in somewhat
of growl. "Wat a minute and I'll
he out there"
But Guen never stopped to argue
the point. Catching up her bag she
fed back along the lane to the house
and raped for admttance.
Land, child" laughed Mrs. Bas-
comb when she heard what had hap
pened. 81 suppose pa got you both
sort of mixed up on your dates. He's
a real nice young man, run up for a
rest. He always used to come here
when he was boy, and after the
war he wanted TO get his grip back.
| believe he was wounded little bit.
Anyhow, we told him to come along,
and he must have got your tent. I'll
put you right to bed for the night and
Wen fix ii in the morning"
But in the morning by the time she
was up and out of doors her tent was
ready for her. Mr. Bascomb had hur-
ried the former occupant out and was
all smiles and apologies. She did not
see her fellow boarder until the noon
meal, when all members of the tent
colony went up for lunch TO the main
house. He stood near the water pail
