Many |*eople complain of having a poor

elaborate system in order to accom|Msh
this result, fine doe* not have to g lo

wilj do It. similarly memory may he
cultivated by one's own efforts and amid
on-*a ordinary's pursuits.
One man made the flunday service of
his church serve aa a memory exen t*e
After the service he would endeavor to
recall tho numbers of all hymn* rung,
ihe chapter ami verse of the ffc rlptma
lesoon. words of anthem, texts and points
of *ern>n. This required the inlying of
dose attention and a conscious effort
to impress these things upon hla mind
Hy this and other equally simple mean*
he developed s memory that so ab

Another way of memorising the points
of an addre* to hr* delivered, one wh*ch
the writer ha* frequently used, I* by
means of anagrams It Is very simple.
Huppose one were called upon to deliver
