Queen Anne's county, Md, says an ex-
change, was born in 1896, and is now con-
sequently 81 years of age. Mr.. Courcey
is a remarkable man. Figures are mere
plaything for him. He can solve the
most difficult problem, and has yet to find
a sum he cannot get the correct answer
to. His talent for figures is entirely nat
ural, never having attended school ss
much as u year in his life. lie .uoes ht
sums, not by any arithmetical rules, but
by his own, but always gets the answer
correct. He has made, too, somewhat OF
redutation, and receives sums through
mail from almost every State in the Un-
ion, which he works and answers by mail.
He is quite notorious also for the difficult
sums he puts to the others and particu-
larly the school whom he delights to puz-
zle. His latest is as follows: "a farmer
having 12 bitches cut Of different lengths
employs four men to.dothe work. To&he
first he agrees to pay VI per rod to tht
second 81 rs per rod; tc the third 81 Z!
per rod, and to the fourth 81, ,l8a perrH
when they finish the bitches and Scofh'
to be paid off each man receives the sam
