The more yon grow the fatter.

Stamped plainly On encn feature.

LITTLE KATIE.
M oRAoE MELBOURNE.

The school-house with its peaceful air,
And scholars gathered round the cato,
With eager anxious lonk they stand,
And for their gentle' teacher wait.
Not long, for down the pleasant road
They soon descry her form so dear,
And hurry on to meet her now,
She greets them all with words ofcheer,
"Dear to cher" sobbed little child,
Whose tiny feet had quickly sped,
"0h ain't you glad that we were good
To little Katie, for she's dead"
Then with her scholars by the gate
Where Katie had 90 often stood,
The teachers eyes filed with the thought,
"fes, darling, you've been always good"
And oh how thankful was she then,
When thinking OF the empty seat,
And Of the smiling childish face
She never more on ealth would greet,
That every word aud deed had been
Gentle and kind and iull of love;
That she would met her with a smile
Among the children dear, above.
Yes thankful, though so sad that day
Tue youthful teachers heart would seem,
For little katie's bark pf life
Had dnilcd down the silent stream.
How they would miss the sunny child,
Aud weep beside new made grave,
But still they felt that she was safe
Across the troubled, restless wave,
Aud they had always been so good
TO her, that slept beneath the sod,
Not Katia's SOUL the casket old;
Tho price,ess jewel is with God.
And patient teacher do not mourn,
But only say with thankful heart,
I'VE all were good tn Katie dear,
Her memory from us will not part"
RtYk apln aI. Il
In that child's words a meaning lies,
That one can never we'll fnrget
Although with earnest heart lie tries.
BE Kind 10 every one we meet
Lest when the spark of life has fed
We can not say Il am so glad
That | was good To her, that's dead"

him success.
In his political relations he was a Democrat
and once represented his party in the Legisla-
ture. He was at Columbus while the war was
in progress, and to the extent of his ability be
looked after the wants Of the sick and wounded
soldiers. Ills social feelings were the strongest
of all others, and these be grltihed irrespective
Of business or politics. Courteous toward all

Compound misunderstanding FOR
Math CmatiCians.--lt is remarkable. saws
the Tippecanoe Herald, that this gIet CONNER
cial age, when the science Of arithmetic and n
know ledge of the combination of figures have
produced such wonderful results. !, e full ac-
cumulative power Of compound interest should
be So little apprec iated. We sre from time 10
time astolishcd with he results of certain u-
stances that come to our personal knowledge,
but the i'm preston is seldom deep enough 10 do
more than arrest our attention for the moment
aud vet this power Of accumulation really forms
the corner-stone in the foundation opOn which
the " hole system Of life Insurance is raised.
Indeed, an English writer says "that interest is
the very alchemy of life assurance and all mrn-
etary investments transmuies even the most
vuga cOppers int1 masses Of hard and solid
gold"
The operation of simple interest is familiar to
all Of US but let Us take the words of Mr. I'LL
man as lucid explanation Of what compound
interest realivis
"Compomd interest is the recompcnse for the
loan, and the iurbearance of the simple interest
arising ihere'rnm, which is added tc the orig
nal sum nj each period OF its becoming dur,and
forms new principal upon which simple inter
est is paid at the next period, when the same
progress is undergone"
In comparing simple with compound interest,
we find the money will double itself through tie
former medium in f, urtetn and halt years. by
calculating il at per cent but compounded at
same rate the same amunt will be doubled IN
ten and fourth years.
The difference, however. is made more strik.
ing bv the calculation of Mr. Francis Baily, whu
discovered that il two cents had been put cut at
) per cent, compound interest at the birth oC
Christ it would by ile year 1910 have amounted
10 more money than could have been EXPRESSED
by 357 millions OF elobcs, each equal to tue earth
in magnitude, solid gold of stauiard quality (;
whereas, if the calculation had been made at
simple interest, it would not have amounted to
over s. 49,
Mr. Hlnan carried the larger calculation to
the end of lS4S, resulting in u quantity too large
for human comprehension.
