UNIQUE PRESENT.
Uncle George Abbott Received a
Beautiful Christmas Gift.
I nch' (Jeorge Abbott received a
unique pres nt from bis daughter,
Mrs. Mahle Robbins, and he is just
ly proud of it. It is a little leather
covered booklet, made by her
own hands, containing choice clip
pings from l lie pen of Walt Mason.
The first of the lot, however, is
this beautifully lettered and well writ
ten verse of pros*' poetry, by .Mrs.
Robbins:
"Are jou sad and life so dreary,
ary you weighted down with care?
l)o the things that nag and weary
seem to linger everywhere? Or
are you hajipy and light-hearted —
all good thingif just come your
way—all voiir sorrows long de
parted—joys glow greater day by
day? Are you so blest with fault
blindness, is your heart so big and
great, you would treat with loving
kindness, every friend and foe you
meet? Have you moments of en
deavor, longing somehow to do
good? You will find Walt Mason
ever a good friend for every
mood."
The decorations of this little book
let is by the hand of Charles Rob
bins and certainly shows much art is
tie taste.

STRANGE ACTION OF MEMORY.
Scenes of Other Days, Thought For
gotten, Are Suddenly Flashed
Into the Mind.
Often suggestions out of all keeping
with the surroundings couie, and it
may he asked. W hat made you think
of that?" I'Vei n< nt!y w e are positive
that no conscious tiu.in of thought has
brought up (lie idea. These memories,
out of all rhyme and reason with our
atmosphere and conscious occupation,
pop into the mind and surprise ua
with their incongruity. Are these j
spontaneous')’ originated as they seem j
to be, or have we merely forgotten |
the connecting train of ideas, as is I
often contended? The author but re- I
cently, while looking at some dill pick- i
los, had flash upon his mind the
image of a Southern California beach
nnd an incident associated with the
scene. The memory came so suddenly
and the connecting link was sought
for so immediately that a dropping out
of a segment of consciousness is al
together improbable, yet he lelt that
there was a connection somewhere, if
it could but be found. And it was
found after a little thought. Where
the brine on the pickles iiad dried,
there were left fine, white salt crys
tals just as lie had seen on kelp and
sea mosses that lie had gathered on
that beach. The memory in the
stream of consciousness was spontan
eous, and yet we see how it may come
under our law, at least in its physio
logical version. — From the Mental
Man.
