Studying Puzzles a Waste
OF Time.

The Educational Monthly re-
fleets the sentiments of most
Thoughtful persons in the follow
ing paragraph:
There seems to be, says the
writer, a fascination about arith-
metical puzzles that leads many
persons TO waste their time and
tire their brains in efforts to
sIove them. The "l3 Is IA"
puzzle that is now going the
rounds is a type of the entire
class Of puzL,es, for it has the fol.
lowing characteristics l. The
solution can only be found by a
tentative process Of trial and ex.
pertinent, and the only tinctnre
of MATHEMATICAL science which il
has is its value as an example in
the mathematical doctrine of pro.
liabilities. 2. The solution.
when it is obtained, does no good
and is utterly devoid of value,
1t is said that some one gave this
puzzle to the great engineer De
Lesseps while he was examining
the Brooklyn bridge. Great
engineers, however, are as likely
to fail 50 other people and great
mathematicians like Isaac New
ton and Sir William Rowan
Hamilton have no advantage over
school boys. II the time spent ir
deciphering such puzzles were
devoted to the study Of usetu.
problems, there would be a sur
prising increase in the sum tota.
of arithme,ical knowledge.

DOBBINS' ELECTRIC SOAP

DOBBINS' ELECTRIC SOAP.
Having obtained the agency OF
this celebrated soap for Abbeville
and vicinity, l append the opin-
ion Of some of our best people as
10 it's merits. We have been
using for the last 2 months the
Dobbins' Electric soap. made by
I. l.. Cragin & Co Philadelphia.
Pa, and find that it washes and
cleans the clothes more rapidly
and more thoroughly and Is in
the end cheaper than any other
soap we have ever used in our
family. We can heartily recon.
mend it and a single trial will
convince all of the correctness OF
our assertions.

A FATAL HABIT.--Irresoi d

A FATAL HABIr.--Irreso iu.iou
is a fatal habit; it is not vicious in
itself, but it leads to vice, creep
ing upon its victims with a fatal
facility, the penalty of which many
a fine heart has paid at the scat
foii. The idler, the spcndthrift, the
epicurean and the drunkard are
among the victims. Perhaps its e.
fects appear in the most hideons
form. He knowns that the goblet
he is about to drain is poison, yet
ue s-anows it. He knows, for the
example Of thousands has painted
it in glazing colors, tina. it will
deaden all his faculties, take the
strength from his limbs happiness
from his heart, Cypress him with
disease and hurry his progress to
a dishonored grave, yet he drains
it. How beautiful, on the contra
ry, is the power Of resolution, ena-
bling the one who possesses it to
pass through perils and dangers,
trisls and temptations! Avoid the
contraction. Strive against to the
end.
