A n«i«4 Memory,
When Theodore Roosevelt was gov-
ernor of New York, he was a great
friend of the porters and employees of
tbe New York Central. One morning
be took the 9:15 train frone Albany
west, and as he entered the car he said
to Adams, the colored porter: “Hello,
porter! You here *1111?"
“Yes, sir,” replied the porter, "and
Tm going to stay here till you get to be
prcoldent, and then I want you to give
me a Job.”
“I’ll go youl” promptly replied tbe
governor, and. sure enough, when Gov-
ernor Roosevelt became president pf
the United States be surprised Adams
by sending for him to go tp work In
Washington.—Schoolmaster.

Writers have commonly nssonatd that
such minuteness wan the product of
poetic fancy, which reduced these spir-
its to ii sixe much below tbnt admitted
by popular Itellcf, bet this Is nn error.
Folklore supplies us with abundant
examples of fairies who can carry no
more tltnn a single straw, who emerge
from n iilntcldl! and make ,a thread
bridge In order to traverse g keyhole.
Coucordunt is the testimony of lan-
guage, as when the foxglove passes for
being n firiry cop.
If a sixe so reduced cannot allow his-
torical Interpretation, still lees dees
ethnology explain the qualities of these
fays, who iu power do not differ from
their larger cousins. Queen Mab, no
larger tluin the Jewel of a ring, la yet
charged with the functions of n birth
goddess. The least fairy can steal a
bride or a baby; tenuity la of lean con-
sequence. since any tiny sprite can at
will assume gignntle proportions. Tbe
fairies who In one canton are repre-
sented as dwarfish in the next may be
pcscribptl ns gigantic.
The contrast, which canapt bp ac-
counted for as nrising from historical
(nemories, may be easily explained by
(he early modes pf conceiving nature.
Ip prehistoric conception p paoontpip
might pass for a large man, g fiver fog
a tall one, while the inmates pf petty
hillocks would nature^ t*e Imagined
