■Quality always" tells, and this is specially true of golf balls. The "X.L. Challenger" keeps its proud position for that very reason. Every ball is turned out as perfect- as science can make it. The "Challenger" is a shining example ■of the successful co-operation of scrupulous care m manufacture, and> the finest materials. Sole N.Z; Agents, E. J. Hyams, Ltd., Wellington.*

"Angela" writes: "We were talking of memory tests the other day, and the conversation recalled to me an old one that, I had heard m my youth. It began , 'So ,she went into the garden to get a cabbage leaf,' but I can't remember, the rest of it. Is.it within your^ ken?" The story is told m connection with a man who would undertake to repeat verbatim from memory any reasonable extract from a book or any sentence of, reasonable length. I believe it waa Sheridan — though /I'm open to correction on this point— who at once propounded the followni^ ridiculous nonsense sentence, and m, for the memory man repeated it at once: "So she; went, into the garden to get . a cabbage leaf to .make an apple pie of. A big bear coining down the street put his head m at . the window. What, no soap? So he died, and she very imprudently married the barber. And there were present at the wedding the Gadalillies and the Frizalillies and the Great Panjandrum himself, with a little round red button On the top. And they danced , and played at catch-as-catch-can till the gunpowder ran out ac the heels of their boots." It sounds like an extract from Hansard, but the story is historically vouched for.
