USED HIS BRAIN
How Young italian Cultivated
Marvellous Memory.
While Watching His Sheep, Jacques
maud Occupied His Mind by
Working Out Sums.

Up in the north of Italy, not far
from the city Of Turin, In the mountain
land that lies TO the south Of the rug
ged line of the Alps, about 1879, a
little boy sat engaged In the usual 0c-
cupation Of small boys in that rural
reglon--watching sheep. There was
nothing for him to do except to look
at his woolly charges, or off at the
line Of hills that shuts in the sky on
all sides. His name was Jacques
maud. His home was little hove
scarcely worthy Of the name Of home
His people were the poor people Of
the region, peasants who could pro-
vide little or nothing for their chill
dren
There was just one way in which
jacques maud was different from the
scores OF other boys in his neighbor-
hood who likewise had been set to
watch focks The others sat, idly,
scarcely thinking or else they threw
stones. or played with their dogs, or
built little walls and houses with
sticks and rubble. jacques maud
kept his boyish mind as active as
though he were In a schoolroOm. He
counted his sheep, estimated the wool
they produced, the amount OF grass
they ate, the number Of lambs there
were likely to be, the amount Of money
they would bring, and the number Of
people they would furnish food and
clothing.
At first he did this merely as an
idle amusement. He had no paper
ON which TO write, and there were few
fiat stones on which he could make
records; so he was obliged to remem-
Der the facts that he observed. Soon
he found that his memory was as good
as any fiat stone on which he could
write, and as good as any paper that
he might have. AS he had nothing
else to do, he Continued to cultivate
his ability 10 do sums I'm his head.
When people came along and talked to
him he asked them TO give him the
answers to problems he gave them
then he laughed gayly when they be-
gan to puzzle their heads and to write
down figures. soon he would fash out
the correct answer to their utter
amazement. His fame spread and peo-
pie took long journeys TO hear him.
They asked him difficult questions, to

TIME CHANCES ALL.

In youths glad morn, we romp
and play; we sport in festive glee /;
we ramble here and yon each day,
all lightsome, gay and free. And
then the dark-gray years come on,
our backs are bent by toll; and
round our souls those days agone
persistent mem'ries coil. We see
again the swimming pool where
once we frolicked free; we long to
breast its waters cool, beneath the
old oak tree We live again those
palmy hours-from memory's gol-
def store-we roam around in
sylvan bowers, where once we
roamed of yore. The impulse
comes to wander back-we hear
and heed The call-but When we
reach the place, alack, Old Time has
changed it az. The swimming holes
a mudhole dark. Inviting? Not a
bit. And wondering, upon the
bank, in musing mood we sit. Things
look the same as in the past -but
then, amt it the truth, the feeling
comes to US at last that we have
changed in sooth. The things that
charmed in days now flown hold no
appeal today; since unto mans
estate we've grown youths tastes
have passed away So it has been,
so it will be till Time shall be no
more; tits sweet--with mem'ry's
eye--to see the pleasant things of
yore. But do not visit youthful
scenes if you your dreams would
hold For sombre grays replace the
you are getting old
