To Strengthen the- Me/n°/7.
(St. Nicholas.) !
After reading a book, or an article, or
an item'of information from any reliable
source, before turning your attention to
other things, give two or three minutes'
quiet thonght to the subject that has
just been Presented to your mindl; see
how Much you can remember concerning
; and if there were any new ideas, in-
structive fact, or binte of especial in-
terest that impressed you, as you read,
force yourself to recall - hem.
It may be a little troublesome at first
until your mind gets under control and
learns to obey your will, but the very
effort to thinkit all out will engrave the
facts deeply upon the memory, so deep-
ly that they will not be effaced by the
rushing in of a new and different set of
ideas; whereas if the matter be given
no finther consideration at all the im-
pressions you have received will fade
away so entirely that within a few
weeks you will be totally unable to re
member more than a dim outline of them.

—` Money does everything for a man,'
said an old gentleman, pompously.
Yes,' repliedthe other, but money
won't do so much for a man. as some men
will do for naoney.'
—An English lady on the Rhine,
hearing a German speaking of her party
as foreigners, exclaimed, .“ No, We are
_not foreigners, we are English ; it is you
who are foreigners."
—" Can you name the four seasOns ?"
asked a school visitor of a cla,sa that was
on examination. " Yes, sir," said a,
bright looking little boy. " What are
they, my little mart ?" "Salta pepper,
vinegar and mustard," was the reply.
- Al old Scotchirm , wit ose k n

-e-aA young man asked Diogenes which
way he might best be revenged on his
enemy? "The best • way," answered

came for advice, under the following
cireumstances "Mr. — has threat-
ened to kick me whenei.er he sees me in
society. What ant I to do if he comes

Ids Lordship.

Young husbaecl---" Yes, awl mighty

tion, who had grown grey in the service,
and who was remarkable for having all
the details of the arrival and departure
of trains, &c., at Ms finger f ends, was
one :day 34e/intending matters on the
platform, when the parish' minister step-
ped up to. him and asked when the next
train arrived from the south. t The aged
official took off his. cap and carefully
read the hour and the minute of . the
train from a document stuck in the
croWn. Somewhat surprised at this,
the -minister said—" Dear me, John, is
your memory failing, or what is up with
yon? You used to have all these mat-
ters entirely by heart." Wed, sir,"
said John, " 1 dinna ken if ' my mem-

Boston Banking Experiences.
"We see some very queer sights, and have
some queer experiences in the course of
a year," remarked an old -State street
bank teller respectively, to a Boston
: •
Herald repo'rter:
"For example ? Well, I will tell you
a few. Not - long since an old farmer-,
dressed in a Suit (Crusty homespun,
crone into the bank—he was from the
western part of the State, I believe—
and stepping up to my window, said:
"'Be you the President, mister
'` 1 informed him that the Presi-
dent was absent on a six months' vaca-
tion, bnt that the cashier would be
happy to attend to any business he
might have.
." Wal," he drawled, it don't make
no great diff'rence, I s'pose. I thought
co how I might leave a little money
with ye, if ye'd take good care on it.' ,
"The cashier came out and talked.
with him a few minutes, and as a result,
he produced an old strap -fastened le,ath-
er wallet, and said :
"'1 guess ei how I'll trust ye with a
hundred an' forty dollars.'
"1 Counted:the money, then said:
"'All right, sir. Your signature, if
you please.'
•
" At the same time I handed out the
huge book in which we 'keep depositors'
signatures. What did he do but quiet-
ly place the book under his arm, and
walk- off with it! Ourmessenger had to
•
run more than a block before he caught
up with him. The old manwas as in-
nocent of wrong doing as a babe. He
said he thought that was his receipt for
the money. , '
"Another similar appearing old fel-
low came in one day with a check on
the bank for two hundred dollars, and
told. me, in a confidential way, that 'if it
wasn't perfectly convenient, he would
let. part of it rest there fora while'
"More obliging than some larger, cap-
italists would be.' I
"Very true. And it it strange how
loosely some keep their aceounts.• A
few days ago I informed: a depositor that
his account was overdrawn. He stared
at me in astonishment and blurted. out:
Who did it
"Can. you imagine a man More 'care,
less ?"
"Not king since, in ; a Devonshire
street bank,. A depositor drew out
quite a large amount of anoney, and left
the hank with it. A short time after-
ward he hurried into the bank again,
and approaching the paying teller, said,
with sinialated anger :
" I say, yoa didn't pay me the right
amount!'
"'It's too late now, fir,' said the
paying teller; we don't correct errors.'
I was going to say,' returned the
brightening up that you had paid
me $100 too,much.'
"'Well, then, you 'keep it,' said the
teller, angrily, and the man did keep it.'
"'1 will tell you just one more inci-
dent that struck me as being suggestive.
A remarkably pretty, well-dressed
woman is in the habit of coining once a
week regularly, and depositing exactly
$25. 1 of course i time came to know
-her quite well, and made so bold one day
as to ask her what she did. -
"'Well,' she said blushing and look-
ing down, you mustn't tell anybody,
but my husband is 1 bar -keeper."
Plain Talk From a Clergyman.,
The Rev. Dr. Mark Trafton the ven-
erable and widely -known ifethodist
clergyman, made a sensation at a late
conference 0 f Methodist ministers • in
Boston, by denotineing the modern.
church service, and by defending the
non -church -going mases.
I confess," he said, "I don't like
toto to.church. I am sorry to say it.
W an I was a boy I wail glad when they
" Let us go into the house of the
Lord.' •
"1 enjoyed the preaching, the sing-
ing, and the praying."
A Voloc—" You. were very. pious in
those days." -
"Yes. . Well; it's no ewender I've
backslidden with ouch, associates.
(Laughter.) Let me start out. now, to
go to. church and worship God. At
home we have had our private devotion.
We come to the church door, (I am say-
ing what took place exactly,) and we
see plenty -of seats vacant. We ask one
of the young snipperamappers, with a
rosette in his buttonholei-for a seat. He
says:
You wait awhile and 111 see.'
"By and by, when the bell stops toll-
ing, the map sa.ys :
"'You can find a seat in the gal-
lery.'
A Voice -e-", What church was that ?"
"A C:hristian church.'? -
" ID the gallery you see four young
people talking and laughing. Suddenly
the -organ starts, and then as suddenly
the our grow solemn, jump up, and be -
'gin to squall. You can't understand a
word they say. They sing a hymn you.
never heard before, and never want to
hear again. You can't sing with them.
Call that tinging God's praise? It's not
only folly; but it's blaspliemy. You've
no business to introduce math trash as
that, and call it devotion. Then the
prayer! In the old times the minister
-used to pray, to supplicate, to implore,
just as if he expected something would
come. and something did ome. Now
this brother who prayed,. delivered a
homily, an. address to the people, a
strained effort. It wasn't praying. I
cciafess it didn't touch me at all. I kept
saying to myself : " Oh,- nonsense!
Fiddlestick s !
"1 say thisonght not to be. We ought
not to go away disgusted." .
There was much more in the same
strain, and then. the ministers decided
to onsicler the tubjeet at length two
weeks later.

President Lincoln's Youth. .
Living in homely fashion on frontier
far, usually on "corn dodgers and
an1 common doings," sometimes on
" bite bread and chicken fixings," , eat-
ina, off pewter plates and wooden trench-
