Memory.

The qualities of a good memory are. in the first place. to be susceptible !; secondly, to he retentive; and thirdly. to he ready. It Is but rarely that these three qualities are united in the same person. We often indeed meet with a memory which is at once susceptible and ready; but I doubt very much If such memories be commonly very retentive; for the same set of habits which are favorable to the first two qualities are adverse to the third Dugald Stewart.

SHATTERED RESOLUTIONS

That was George" remarked the brown haired girl, returning from the telephone. He wants to come over to- morrow night and I'll have to let him D
 "Well :" exclaimed her blond friend who lay in the hammock T don't see anything so awful about that You like George, don't you? Why sound so mar tyred?'
 "oh, yes; I like him. It's only"
 The brown haired girl settled herself back in her chair again and picked up her knitting.
 Its only that he's making me spoil another good resolution. You see, it's this way. About a month ago I was feeling sort of rundown and seedy, and I went to see Dr. Haines. He said there was nothing at all the matter with me, except that was tired and needed to get more sleep. So, of course I came home determined to go to bed every night by 10 and to let nothing interfere with it. Ever make a resolution like that? We'll, try it.
 Youll find that the minute you do try, things begin to happen, important things that simply can't be denied, even for the sake of health.
 Before I had succeeded in carrying out my resolve one single time 1 was foled by the arrival of some long lost cousins from California. They stayed three days and they are awfuIly fond oi gayety, so what could I do? I had to entertain them. One night there was a dance at the club and another night there was the theatre and the third night something else-oh, you know how that sort of thing develops!
 q was a wreck when they left, and had my mind made up to retire the next night as soon as it was dark

ReRsrIha Elas.fsitx of Rubber.

Rubber articles that have become hard recover their elasticity In short time if placed in per cent carboIic water or per cent aniline solution. In the case of the carbo1ic solution 1t must not be forgotten that black goods exposed to 1t become gray. If it is desired to preserve the black or red color of the goods, that. too, can be done. 4 per cent soiution-of pantasulphate of potash is employed. It is true that this smells unpleas- ant, but the restoration of elasticity is quite considerable.

 In view of the efforts that are being made to guard western Europe from the dangers of bolshevism it can be recog- nized that such an alliance and the ef- feet it may have through sympathetic relationships with Russia because of Slavic connections will get serious con sideration from the entente group. Other alliances have been undertaken and urg- ed in that region but the efforts have not \~:ceeded. Whether the new one will hold remains to be seen.

The school teacher disliked to take the responsibility for refusing to permit the youngsters to do the things they desired to do and which she did not think were proper. So she placed the re responsibility on the school board. If hay ride was asked for, she informed them that there was a ruling of the board which pre- vented hay rides.
