How to Calculate Interest and What IA
Will do. -, !,

The following rules are SO simple
and so tue according to NIL business
usage, that every banker, broker,
merchant or clerk should pest thsiin,
up for reference. There being no
such thing as fraction in it, there d
scarcely any liability to error or mis-
take. BY no other arithmetical pro.
cess can the desircu information be
obtained by so few figures: II
Six per ccnt--Multiply any given
mbtdr 81
days Of interest desired, Separate the
right hand figure and divide by six:
the result is the true interest on such,
number Of days at six per cent. ii
Eight per Multiply any given
amount for the number of days upon
which it is desired to ascertain the
interest, and divide by forty-fve, and
the result will be the interest of such
sum for the time required, at eight,
per cent.
What it will do. Ifa mechanic or
clerk saves oaly 21 cents day, from
the time he is twenty one until he 10
thrcescore and ten, the aggregate,
with interest, will amount to 81, 800:
and daily saving Of 973 cents reaches
the important sum Of $50, 900. A six
pence saved daily will provide sum
Of $1,000 sufficient TO- purc,ass q
good farm. l yr.'nnn
There are few employers who caft-'
not save daily, by abstaining from the
use of cigars. tobacco, liquor, ETC.,
twice or ten times the amount Of the
six cont piece. Every person should
provide fer old age, and the man in
business who can save dollar a day
will eventually find himself possessed
Of over 100000.

Cut with a Circular Saw.

Last Wednesday young man named
Hermann Oestreich living about miles from
the city in the town of Watertown, met
with a severe accident ia the Sash and
Door Factory of c. Mayer by having his
right hand cut nearly of with circular
saw. He had just stepped into the Factory
to talk with one Of the workmen aud,
while carrying on the conversation, be
leaned over on bench and his arm came
in contact with the saw which was
running with fearful velocity, almost Sc
vering his hand from the arm. Oestreich
suffered greatly from loss of blood but was
able to walk TO Doctor Cody's Office where
his wounds were dressed. Hopes are en-
tertainei that the hand may be saved, al
though in any event it must be badly dis
figured.

Herbst, Habbegger and Sup't. Bieber. In
the absence of the President, Com. Specht
was appointed Chairman pro tenn. The
minutes of last meeting were read and ap-
proved. The Sup't read to the Board the
following communications
Miss L. Bates teacher of the second in
termediate grade of Union School No. I.
resigned her place in said school at the be-
ginning of the second week OF the present
school month, appointed Miss Rosa Bern
hard, teacher of the first primary grade OF
Union School No. II. to the class so vaca-
ted for the balance of this term. Since the
number of pupils of Union School No. III.
does not exceed one hundred. the two re-
naming teachers are both able and willing
to take charge of them for the remaining
part of the present term. By this arrange
ment all the disturbance of appointing

to different grades for so short a time was
avoided and also a saving of about $780,
made to the school-fund.

TERRIBLE AccIDENT.-On Thursday NOR
ming last terrible accident occurred in
this town, by which two men were MANNED
Tor life, if indeed, they should survive at
ALL Mr.. D. Kelsey, and his son, a young
man of about 20 years Of age, were engaged
in repairing the barn on the premises of
the former about 2 miles w est of this village,
when one of the large beams suddenly and
without warning gave way and precipitated
the whole building, striking both persons.
The old gentleman had his lower limbs COM
pletely paralyzed, and the young man had
one of his legs shattered to pieces above the
knee and was otherwise seriously hurt. 1t
is considered very doubtful if either of the
men will survive. DR.. Hallock OF this vii
lage is in attendance and the sufferers are
receiving the kindest of care.

A Assisting N allure.


IL IS OF no use attempting to force nature.
one won stand it, and rebels. She must
be ceaxed, as 1t were, not driven. For in
stance, attempting to overcome constipa-
ZION u an ihuigeslion' violent, or what physic-
ians call, by way of euphony, "heroic u
treatment, is sure to defeat the purpose in
view, which is, or should De, to permanent
ly remedy the evil. The use of drastic ca
thartics is especially to be deprecated for
although they temporarily overcome cos
tiveness, yet the intestines are SO weakened
and infamed by them as to be rendered nm
fit to perform the elective function properly.
How much better to assist nature ia such q
case with such mild and salutary aperient
as Hostetters Stomach bitters, which
strengthen at the same time that they re-
iieve the bowels. Not only is this result
achieved by their use. but the &C tiyity Of
the torpid liver is restored, tue stomach
invigorated, and the entire system greatly
